I didn't get mine automatically either. I put my email in here to request a survey: https://fulfillment.fangamer.com/kin...survey_support

That doesn't work for me since I didn't back through Kickstarter. I went through the Shenmue.link website (slacker backer) that took me straight to Paypal to support it. They don't use accounts like fangamer.

I think surveys are going out later for slacker backer. Not sure though.

This is great. Apparently I am out-of-the-loop and its been stated that not all slacker backers will get what was promised to them. So basically I have the potential of being robbed.

EDIT: After more research, it seems Kickstarter had more options for rewards based on how much you donated. The slacker backer just has less. So slacker backers will still get what they paid for. With that being said, this still applies: "Delivery of rewards/perks are subject to best efforts and not guaranteed."

Doesnt most people end up being robbed with most of these "crowdfunded projects"?

Or they dont deliver what they promised, or they go bankrupt, or the final product sucks, seems to me that this happens in the vast majority of the projects.

I still have not received my Plague Doctor Bobblehead from when I pledged to Plague Road...

Yeah, I think after the reward fulfillment of Kingdom Come: Deliverance I learned my lesson as well. Don't see myself backing any project anytime soon.

Now im curious, what was the "reward" for backing Kingdom come deliverance?

I never backed any of these projects and unless something extraordinary happens, i really dont see my self ever backing one.

If it was a really good project they would be snatched by some publisher (big or smal), or like in the case of Children of Zordiac, they prove to be good enough to later on get realesed on "normal way" and then i can just buy the game like i would do with any "regular" game.

Yeah, that is true as well. I have heard bad stories about Mighty No. 9 backers still waiting for a copy of the game.

Backing games really does have a bad stigma to it.
