I dont think its fair to fault Lum for not coming out and admitting the game is a piece of poo poo. You just cant do that to a company you are working for or have even worked for in the past. Itd be unprofessional. Lum is fine and its good to hear that hes doing fine. Still, the irony of him ending up on a project like this considering who he used to be is pretty funny and I bet he appreciates it even if he cant admit it.

the real disaster of this game isn't the development it's the diseased hosed up business model. Even making bad games takes a stupid amount of work and skill from the developers. Them trying to make an awesome game and failing is normal poo poo. Never ending fund raising on a fantasy product like Turbulent's platform made to do is just a stupid cancerous way to make a product and a community.

I've just come to accept that I'm never getting my money back, in monetary or otherwise forms. Personally, I think Garriott is slowly losing the plot and going unstable, at which point he might Cobain himself. He's got that twinkle in his eye. Actually this is just what I hope for.

T minus 25 days until a bunch of kickstarter backers and mmorpg lovers finally come and play the game and buy all of these house plots and capes and hot tubs and smoking emojis and hats and steampunk wings and horse statues and airships and moondials and cloaks and vendors and houses and outhouses and hats and instruments and cloaks everyone has been holding on to. Exciting!!!!!!!

I should do a pre-release tour to see how many "under construction" signs I can find in individual scenes. The 3D equivalent of a late 90s yahoo webpage gif is the stamp of quality.

Is the release price still going to be 60? Because it should be like 10. Probably less by now.

Does Shroud of the Avatar have any vocal fanboys left, a la Star Citizen's Lethality or Clifford "AKA Miku" ? Or has everyone given up on it entirely? Does Shroud of the Avatar have any internet warlords trying to destroy it?

I mean, you can even comb through this thread and two years ago there was people in here defending this poo poo and even calling me out for saying negative things about the game. even they don't support this anymore

Microtransactions in a game are honestly probably a sick money laundering scheme

Oriental Hugs posted:How the hell are people laundering money with this? There's no game; it's just a real-money store. The "game" is basically a display warehouse where you can show off your virtual goods (spaceships, laser shows, snowmen, and other totally on-theme Ultima decorations). Many of these goods are only on sale for a limited time. They've created false scarcity by only offering, say, three hundred copies of the "Rainbow Vomit" emote. If someone really wants it after the sale is done, they have to buy your copy (or buy your whole account) if it's non-tradeable. I only bought a copy on Steam. I'd love my $40 or whatever back, but I suppose I've gotten some small amount of enjoyment out of the schadenfreude. The game really is breathtakingly bad on every level. There is literally nothing redeeming about the experience at all. It's amazing.

Seriously, this game sucks. I get that it's early access, but there is zero indication that the final release will be any better. It is not fun to play.
