So a major company like Sony will use Kickstarter . . .Yep Sony looks like small budget indie company that needs help making games.

IM not too sure Legend of Dragoon would make 2 million bucks, Im beeing serious its way more niche than Shenmue.

We've had plenty of siren games and only one LoD

You'd be surprised, LoD has a huge cult following and sold better than shenmue

Revivals are risky. Super risky. Especially if a series has been dormant for a decade or more. Tomb Raider only worked because Uncharted and Far Cry worked. They saw popular styles that could effectively be replicated and hopped on it. That's not a bad thing by any means, but that isn't possible with absolutely everything that could do with a legitimate sequel, remake, or revival.

To me, this isn't a slippery slope. Rather, this is a way to get games we may never see again otherwise. It helps the business side of things figure out the risk versus reward. Everybody groaning about contributing to the funding of the game: you aren't. The way Kickstarter is used, what you're giving, that $2 million or even $5 million is a drop in the bucket compared to what companies like Sony will contribute if the consumer support is there. Kickstarter is effectively a marketing campaign, and a pretty efficient one at that when properly used (see: Bloodstained and Yooka-Laylee).

Well they could make their own kickstarter site and integrading it into the playstation store and ecosystem

I would support that, since it will help out smaller indies as well. However them using kickstarter itself sends a bad message. 

How does confirming consumer interest in the easiest possible way send a bad message? I'm not saying I like the Kickstarter campaign stuff, but at the same time, I get it. It's smart. It's a new way of gauging consumer interest that has been proven to work with other video game projects, two very significantly in just the past month. Kickstarter has proven itself as a viable platform for pitching projects. I get the complaints and fears, but I feel they're relatively unfounded right now. If we start seeing recent AAA title sequels end up in the Kickstarter box, I think some worry is warranted, but that will never happen.

I know Id back it, I love that game. I hope Sony do this with every classical game ppl want remade or a new version, its a nice strategy. Revealing the Kickstarter on E3 after FF VII Remake is anounced would help too lol.

Because a large company doesn't need kickstarter to know consumer interest, they have research abilities and other resources. They are also not strapped for cash on small kickstarter projects.
