IG: How have you found the whole Kickstarter process and what are your thoughts on the self-funding model, do you see the industry now moving in a new direction when it comes to publishing and funding?

Throughout its successful Kickstarter campaign, Camelot Unchained has always been billed as an atypical MMO.
