Or if you really want to support the project, but accept that it might not turn out.

IDK, I just buy the soundtrack or whatever if I really want to support it. But the game needs to be good enough to justify the price before buying.

Depending on the project, there might not be a soundtrack to buy - especially for indie projects.

I've pitched in a few bucks here and there to support projects, with mixed results. I don't regret supporting even the failed projects though, since I viewed it more like a donation than a purchase.
