I'm still going to hold onto a small flame of hope for Bloodstained to be good.
I'm not going to let Mighty No. 9 extinguish that.
Dude, Bloodstained is totally MN9v2.0.
If I was you I would ask for a refund. Right now.

at the very least, it has better visuals
way to sound overdramatic
Shovel Knight was great, and the Plague Knight update to it was fuckin' awesome
Not all crowdfunded games are bound to fail

The visuals are acceptable. They are equal to or better than the best looking 2d vanias ever made (for instance compare them to the Rondo remake) which is the minimum you should ask for it. Unfortunately they are not very much of an improvment.
From what we have seen the combat, in terms of number of weapons and complexity of fighting is going to be the highest.
Iga has also promised we will receive the largest castle in history and it's already confirmed to have the most bonus modes available.
It may have some rough points but it's not a failure by any means. If you don't like what we have seen your standards are just too high.

Yeah, but games made to be cheap knockoffs of a spokesperson's glory days are. There's no ambition to create behind them unlike Shovel Knight, and they focus way too much on people who don't actually make the video game.

Been looking good so far, and the people making it seem to actually give a shit. So that's always nice.

Why would it? There's a lot of crowdfunded games that were good.
It gets a bad rap because it's exactly how many other games are made. Investors are promised a decent game (i.e. it will make X amount of profit) and the devs try to deliver. Sometimes they fail, sometimes they succeed.
Except in this case, your investors are customers who just want a fun game (not a quadrillion units sold).
Crowdfunding is a good system, people just can't deal with reality: sometimes people fuck up and can't keep a promise. Or they didn't fuck up, they just like screwing people over to make a quick buck.

People act like the failure of one highly anticipated game means the doom of all highly anticipated games
It's nothing new or unusual

IGA has only made 0 (maru) bad 2d CV

Still think that little cape thing looks kind of dumb but the overall design is nice so I'm willing to let it slide.Still wish those things in her hair were horns.
