It's a good article, and I agree. I don't mind losing a couple of bucks to risk, or just put them towards something I want to happen, but I won't put any significant amount of money towards a project unless I trust I'll get the products and preferably get multiple things I'm interested in. It was the Wasteland 2 dev blogs and concept art samples which sold me on the $30 tier (well, that and the chance to get two copies of the game, so I'll have one to gift).

Thanks for doing this. Here's another one to add to the successful list:

Also the Banner Saga isn't over yet.

I love you so much for this. That said, you missed a couple:
Takedown (Successful)
Hermes spacecraft (Non-gaming)

It would also help people not make dozens of kickstarter dedicated threads. I know I did at least :p.

Was going to say that. We need to reach the 600K $ at very least for the Orchestra, but 700K $ would be way better for the Player Owned Cities.

Don't forget about Ground Branch! I'm not sure when it comes to KickStarter tho :/. A game like good ol' Rainbow Six? Shut up and take my cash!

As a bigtime Diablo fan, I urge anyone who likes ARPG's to give a little bit to Grim Dawn. Titan Quest was fucking fantastic, and I have utter faith in that team to bring another excellent ARPG to the world again.

Jane Jensen's Pinkerton Road. Add it and get backing.

The banner Saga just reached 600K (600%) and thus will have a Full Orchesrta OST.
Now that's some great news.

Hey now. There are so many Kickstarter threads, many of which are poorly titled or buried in "what's your favorite __?" threads; I wanted to make one mega thread where they can all be itemized. Will update as frequently as possible, please post a new comment here if there is a kickstarter thread posted on steamgifts and I haven't included it yet. As this is a gaming community I will give gaming projects priority in the list, but have included a non-gaming/interesting section at the end. Thanks.
