James Cameron at least did *some* leg work, unlike Croberts. During research dives for the project Cameron actually spent more time on the Titanic than the passengers did! (At least while they were alive that is) He also produced a product, so pretty fuckin visionary compared to moosh mouth man.

Kind of obvious. You know more about SC than they do. Plus you are always right about the development. Definite shill.

i get it... and i believe it. i don't mind it though. if there's a dev team working toward (no matter how long) bringing the game to some form of release, that's all that matter to me, and generally most backers i'd assume.

Backers SHOULD mind.

CIG still spending time and precious focus on throwaway demos, entirely for reasons of confidence and income generation? How is that okay, at this point in the (supposed) development cycle.

How many cents in the "pledged" dollar is it okay for CIG to spend purely to get the next person to pledge?


Or is it good because it allows CIG to coalesce their thoughts on what the game should be, look like, and play like? Again, at THIS point in the (supposed) development cycle.

It's insane, that's what it is.


It's using more time and money to NOT deliver the game, with the likely side-effect of burning out their developers.

Gotten a rice cooker and slow cooker, and cooking daily with it

another indicator that Lazrin is not a shill is that he basically agreed that all of CIG's marketing is a deceptive lie but he just doesn't give a poo poo because it might help him get a return on his investment in the end. A shill would not be implying that the marketing campaign he's shilling for is fraudulent, probably.

Lazrin is neither convincing enough or intelligent enough to be a shill, paid or otherwise. He sounds like a very convincing Shitizen however.

As for if it's a scam or not, at some level the top brass at CIG know they won't be able to deliver on the promises, they are deceiving people, a lot of whom seem to be mentally ill, to raise money. Call that whatever you want.
