"Oh, and BTW: Nobody complains when Blizzard runs late with their games :)"
To be fair, they're not charging you years before the game is actually released

That's not really fair because CIG is not charging you, but rather you are pledging for it.
Blizzard makes the game on their dime, and then charges us to actually play it. CIG is not making the game unless you pay for it, so it really is a fair comparison.
Blizzard doesn't make the game that YOU want to play. You play on their terms, you have no power over the development of the game. Once you bought and played the game and you think it is crap, you cannot get a refund.
Your input is truly valuable in the development of Star Citizen since they are creating the game YOU want. They listen and change features once they get feedback (e.g flight model 2.0). If you don't think it is what you want you WILL get a refund.
CIG is not making the game YOU want, they are doing exactly what Blizzard does. Making the game THEY THINK YOU WANT. Sure there was a list of stretch goals and what not up on the kickstarter site, but they are not obligated to check all the boxes. I haven't been following closely, but I'm sure there are some boxes that have already been written off (at least internally).
