When I can, I'll go the biggest london bookmaker, and I'll put all my money on "wasteland will not be released"
I'm hoping that it does pull through. Kickstarter has its advantages and disadvantages, particularly when it comes to the players expectations and the issue of do they have more right or control over content because they've directly funded something. Does someone that's invested £100 have more say than someone that's invested £10? Or is it all a good faith exercise that simply forgoes issues of entitlement or expectation due to level of investment.
Seeing as Wasteland is the "biggie" the game changer as it were to see if it's a viable platform for games I hope it gets a release. I dread to think of the lashback if it were to flounder though. It'd make the vociferous hatred launched at EA look like childsplay.
