Both video and tabletop game developers have used Kickstarter to fund games like <a href=\"www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/inxile\/wasteland-2\">a sequel to the classic CRPG Wasteland <\/a>to a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/1089664561\/new-fire-the-aztec-inspired-rpg\">tabletop RPG based on Meso-American mythology<\/a>. Also, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/timh\/everything-is-dolphins-an-rpg-and-art-book\">Dolphin based RPGs<\/a>. Of course, this has led to criticism of the site, as some believe that it&#8217;s only a fad or that backers or project creators are being ripped off by Kickstarter. So in this episode, we talk about our views on this recent wave of crowdfunding games.
