Exposure posted:You would think so, but when the whole Escapist article was still new I decided to check over on the major places I knew really supported the site for whatever reasons to see how they were taking it. The politics of this are definitely more unforgiving for sites that go early on a story than later, and general gamer attitudes certainly don't help. I think that Croberts diatribe had a cooling effect on interest in pursuing this story until the Emperor is PAARPing naked down the street with an airhorn up his rear end and they can bury him for good. Otherwise it really will be a repeat of Molyneux which might be a serial thing, as the Daikatana fiasco suggests, and remember, no journalist or editor or publisher suffered anything by keeping quiet until the failure was undeniable Remember too they have to keep in mind publishers who, while no doubt quietly aghast, want a nice wrap up of this little moral tale. It could be a long haul before Star Citizen Forever crashes and burns, and somehow I don't think crowdfunding itself really will suffer if the supporters are that dim. It just sucks it had to be the FPS space genre and not some dumb farmville-clone scam.

EightAce posted:There was one delightful chap who has a pic on the forum somewhere. He dresses like a pretty hardcore lunatic and inferred he was some sort of x special forces/militia whatever in his home nation even though he was only in his early twenties. He was from somewhere in eastern Europe and he turns up at every single meeting of the cult dressed in combat fatigues and sporting serial killer shades, genuinely pissed off that he cant walk round strapped . He is physically fit looking, with a military haircut and looks like a stone murderer Are you sure that guy wasn't the Stimperor himself? Considering he's allegedly Serbian?

Live on Twitch: Baron and Disco Baron just got kicked out of server with a new patch. 24 players supposedly live! Lando showing off trading cards that are not available for sale yet. These aren't for a card game, he explains, they're just collectibles "meant to sit in sleeves doing nothing." Lando explains that they don't have time for card games because they're building the biggest game in human history. G0RF fucked around with this message at 20:38 on Mar 1, 2016 |

EightAce posted:could be . That Stimpire thing has caused a lot of embarrasment I don't see why it should - surely even the employees at CIG can acknowledge that the Fourth Stimpire is far more well-thought-out, entertaining, and has more personality than anything Chris Roberts poo poo out. I'm surprised they aren't embracing it. If it's not derivative enough, tell them it's based on the reavers from Firefly.

I love the idea of the Stimpire being an actual problem that needs to be addressed. How many Stimpire-focused meetings have there been? Does HR now have to address poo poo like "What to do if someone sends you torture-porn" now?

its the fact that the Stimpire stayed up for as long as it did. It was only after looking at other sites that the people whos job it is to check their own loving forum suddenly realized how bad it was. This also illustrates how little of a flying gently caress CIG give about any of that fan nonsense.
