Kickstarter Cash Allegedly Spent on Private Chefs and Collectibles in Ashes of Creation Scandal
A Kotaku report, drawing on a detailed YouTube investigation by NefasQS, alleges Intrepid Studios CEO Steven Sharif and his husband used $3.2 million in Kickstarter funds to finance a lavish lifestyle—paying a private chef, buying historical curios and trading-card items, andRouting funds to other vendors—linked to the couple’s San Diego mansion; these claims surface amid a highly public legal dispute following Ashes of Creation’s Steam removal, with questions about the ledger’s accuracy and completeness remaining unresolved.
