Are kickstarter campaigns still the go to for board game launches? I’m curious if people still browse and gamble on projects or if they wait until they come out and are reviewed. I haven’t done a KS backing in about a year because of long lead times, failed launches, and the exclusives weren’t worth it.

I think at this point I’d rather visit my local shop or see what’s trending on BGG. Maybe that’s just the way it goes with age and a large collection where games are already competing with my time

I think that Gamefound is eating Kickstarter’s lunch, so there’s more places to check for crowdfunded games.

I went nuts on Kickstarter for a few years and now I don't because I have too many games to play but I do think it's still the go to with many publishers folding.

Also haven't done KS in a long time (2019?) Limited space in my apt now means I'm not buying unless I'm pretty sure I'm gonna like it yup

Kickstarter very good for niche games with a limited appeal to actually get made. I've ordered a few 18xx titles from it over the last few years. But yeah I've eased off generally, my wallet/shelf-of-shame can't keep up with the FOMO.
