Some games have a pretty solid team that gives regular updates, like Something Unlimited or 4 Elements Trainer, but you have to find them and be careful who you give money to. That's why this site is nice. I can check out interesting games and keep tabs on them to see if they're updating without having to pay for it. If I like the project, I support it. Otherwise, I probably never look at it again.
Spoken like a sage.
I have not supported this game through patreon. But, I have not supported
anything on patreon either, so It's not just LoK:Rebirth I have not supported. Some peeps do not have the abundance of money to frivolously spend on.
But...I still support the game by remaining positive. Sure, I have no stakes in the game, but I suppose that's part of the reason why I can wait and relax.
If I had put money into this, would I be upset? Probably at myself for donating too early, but I would get over it and say it's a lesson learned.
Would I donate to them now having learned that lesson? Probably yes after a waiting period. I'm constantly seeing works done here and there, so there
is progress going on, that much is for sure.
So what do I mean by supporting the game by remaining positive? Well, there are all sorts of things you can do without involving money (of course that need is tied to electric bills and internet needed to do these things.)
You can spread the word. You can help post the teasers and products going forward. You can help clear up confusions with misunderstandings by other parties. You can join the community and grow with others.
Games are pretty central to most peoples lives, there is a lot of passion involved. Passion can quickly escalate when challenged. It's about being positive with that passion.
