      @@TheCommanderTaco I don't think investing is really the same of crowdfunding, when you invest in gold, you get the gold and hold on to it. When you invest in stocks, you have the stocks, you are a partial owner of the company. Sure they can become worthless if the company tanks, but you can sell them as soon as your payment processes. Crowdfunding is wanting a product to be made and helping to fund something in exchange for the product. You get nothing for your money except the promise that you may get a product you want made.

That's why games that have no big company wanting to finance, like Shenmue 3, have to turn to kickstarter, because they need you to be the financial backer.

      There are some nice things on Kickstarter, but just keep in mind like a youtuber named " Stop, Drop & Retro" states " these platforms aren't a shop, so don't go in expecting a product or the same product that was pitched to you".
      Personally the only thing I have helped fund on Kickstarter was Viva La Dirt Leauge for a few bucks. I also did back "Jay and Silent Bob: Chronic Blunt Punch" on a site called BackerKit ( was led there from Kevin Smith's actual website) and still to this day the game has yet to come out or have any updates ( I backed the game in 2020). Even reading on the games steam page community tab people have given up that the game will ever come out lol.

      Yes, but at the same time sites like Kickstarter aren't shops but rather investment sites, so it will be trickier to get someone for fraud on a device that may or may not exist. All that is for certain is that a prototype ( assumingly since that is a requirement for Kickstarter, but not Indigogo) existed at some point.

    • @TheCommanderTaco
      @TheCommanderTaco 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      ​@HappilyTearful it's nuanced because while I don't agree with the method the sentiment is there.
      Partially it feels like they are / can use the fact it is supposed to be a homage to their deceased relative to hide from criticism.
      Let's take the Amico for instance. Tommy originally stated he wanted to release the Amico on his deceased sister's birthday. Business wise the move made no sense, but if you tried to call him out on it then you would be seen as being the insensitive jerk because of the meaning it is supposed to hold.
      Back to the bar while it is okay for them to want to honor a family member it does play on people's emotions to have that in their pitch. While the commenter definitely isn't 100% in the right. It is the creators who are more in the wrong, especially using "getting negative comments" as an excuse to stop replying to actual comments that could be quite insightful.

    Part of me is kinda glad the ring one is a scam, but I'm also sadly unsurprised that so many men flocked the campaign and fully funded its goal six times over.

      There is a lot of tiny chinese cameras, the same size as the ring on Amazon. Not a huge quality but they exist.

    How did cops not find the insta-ring people? They actually posted videos with several rather recognizable people. Even if those were actors they could be tracked down easily and could lead to the culprits via the money trail.

    I am still wondering, in a world where Telegram's owner is arrested and facing charges for the stuff he is not even responsible for but what users do on his service....why aren't the authorities of several countries taking apart Kickstarter and Indiegogo for all their money, until they start enforcing stuff and refunding the money from scammers forcibly?
    I mean the levitating phone... who the hell fell for that actually existing? Why did Kickstarter not check if this was a real person even, before allowing it?

I also never received this laptop phone assistant that you're supposed to be able to plug your phone into and use as a computer. I will never support crowdfunding ever again especially with Kickstarter.

    @BlazeMakesGames 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    Look, the guy who changed his profile picture to the dead child frowning and started harassing the project creators is 100% out of line. But he's also right. The harassment is 100% going too far, but at the end of the day they did objectively use a child's death as a sob story in order to try and drive up engagement and sales. And that would be disgusting on its own even if the project went off without a hitch. But the fact that they *also* didn't end up delivering at all only makes it that much grosser. They should have never exploited the child to drive sales in the first place, and they have reached the point where it's clearly become a scam by not even finishing on their promises

    12:01 - Why do so many entrepreneurs think having to use an app for physical objects is a selling point? Why is having no tactile feedback a good thing? Why is adding an extra stepis a good thing? Why is bloating your phone or tablet with pointless software a good thing? Why is being unable to use your device if your phone runs out of battery or dies a good thing? Why is being stuck with an expensive brick once the app inevitably goes offline a good thing?

    Okay but a bag pack with a camera on the back for cyclists that displays on your phone sell it with a handlebar phone mount would probably actually do pretty good hell even throw in a power bank in it to keep it charged easier so it doesn't even need to be removable.

    I'm not going to say I wouldn't fall for a scam if I wasn't careful. But there are some things that I look at and I am just skeptical. I remember seeing the ibackpack on the news back in the day. I remember thinking, "Yeah, I don't think so." I was even like this with Mighty No. 9. I didn't think it was a scam, I was just super cautious about it.
    So hearing some of these made me think, yeah if I heard of these back then, I would have been like nope. Especially the last one because it made me think of the ibackpack just by hearing everything it could supposedly do.
    In the lighter side, I could hear this in my head with the Cole Bar, "Can also be used as spoon."
