I think a Codex Vigilance Thread is in order to fight and scare off the morons, like we did for W2... Seems like this will be even worse. I just hope enough of intelligent crpg fans will jump in the Numenera forums and fight "the good fight" there.
Honestly, there's just no point. It's very clear now that people are going to turn up in every vaguely RPG-related Kickstarter crying out about how their unsolicited idea should be the developers' top priority, and that idea is some weirdly specific nonsense about full voice-acting (and they want Nolan North/Felicia Day to be the actor!), or a romance with an innocent girl-next-door type like her out of Firefly, or a new NPC I came up with in a tabletop session who resembles me only he's a mysterious ninja with a dark past, or actually the project needs to have a compelling villain exactly like Saren in Mass Effect because he really made my FemShep hate him even though she understood his reasoning, maybe he could be voiced by Saren's actor?
There's no stopping them. There's no debating the issue with them. They're backers too; isn't the entire point of Kickstarter that the developers are supposed to listen to them? In fact, now that you've rudely criticised their brilliant designs, they'd better start an Official Voice-Acting/Romance/Ninja/Saren Appreciation Thread just to prove to the developers how much support there is for their idea. They need to make their opinions heard above all of this meanness and negativity! And so the bladderful of reeking piss bloats and swells and consumes everything.
Just take a deep breath and don't fucking engage, I say.
That said, I think we need to demand that they bring fucking Sheena Easton back.
Fuck anyone who disagrees with me.
Oh Sheena, light of my Hebridean loins. When will you be mine.
