It's weird. I've spent some money and have felt an increase in personal fidelity via generous donations. Is this how Chris feels all the time?

Hobold posted:Maybe we're just looking at this all wrong. I mean, you may be right, in a way this game has probably opened up these dudes imaginations in a bigger way than they've done since their childhoods. maybe that's why so many of them defend it, there is nothing rational about what roberts has tapped into, it's something more. G0RF posted:$10 to $20. But I’m not sure CIG is really cutting half the content. ATVs are shorter and clearly now aimed at making the game seem cool and good for new viewers. I bet Ship Shape gets rolled out as a weekly show aimed at collectors, some variation on LoreMakers gets served up for Theorycrafters, and Lando gets a live hangout show for the reality show junkies. Wait the support is tiered as well? gently caress me these assholes won't try to insert zealotry into every pay mechanism. What do you get at the $20 dollar vs the $10 pledge? eitherway it seems like if you took the main show they produced (atv was it right?) and cut its' length from 30 minutes to 5-8 minutes, that's quite a lot of content lost.

ManofManyAliases posted:Not true. I wanted the space game of my dreams. If it was about the money, I'd either have donated more or have gotten a refund. No for me (at this point), it's about principle. I want people in this thread to be proven wrong. Which, won't happen because the shifting narrative will be "well poo poo, they did it. We'll just buy in now and grief your 27k ships you spergs. We still win." But not really, because there's only like 15 of you who actually give enough of a poo poo to post the dissonance here and somehow, you think that's going to make the difference to the overall public who want the game made. Keep at it though? The public perception of Store Citizen is already in the toilet, it can't really go much lower. If you give CIG enough time it will always dig its own hole further and further with lies and incompetence. Personally, I don't care about changing a single remaining backer's mind, CIG and them deserve each other. I see whales like Clifford who is 50K and counting deep in this mess and I want them to pledge even more. Store Citizen is a shambling money-stuffed animate corpse of a video game project lurching into its seventh year of development hell, I just get some laughs from poking it with a stick once in a while and seeing what comes out. The more money the whales keep throwing at it, the longer its darkly comedic death agonies will go on. Really though, if by some miracle Store Citizen launched tomorrow in all its promised glory, I would be ecstatic. It's a project that I always really wanted to succeed, but over these almost 7 years, CIG has never once shown me that they are in any way capable of delivering it. All there is a basket of promises and dreams surrounding a broken tech demo that encompasses less than 1% of the hundred star systems they have promised. There is no rational argument for Store Citizen at this point, there is only blind faith rooted in willful ignorance and cognitive dissonance. colonelwest fucked around with this message at 00:17 on Jul 13, 2018 |

Scruffpuff posted:There's also a fine line between "dumbing down" and "streamlining." One man's depth is another man's unnecessary complexity. It's a tough balance to strike when no two people agree. That said, it's amazing how often games err too far in either direction since a reasonable middle ground generally makes for pretty good games overall. I'm all for Progress Quest until the last patch where I had to click twice or something stupid to make it start. Like how am I supposed to focus my ADHD self long enough to

HycoCam posted:What's the most hosed up reason you can think of for the Robert's putting his kids into the videos? Anyone have any desire to crawl iMDB? If I had to bet a dollar it would be Sandi has realized she is a washed up hag with no acting skills and her light is fading. But not her kids!! Wouldn't surprised to learn Sandi's masterplan is to pimp the kids out on Star Citizen shows to pad their iMDB/acting resume before dragging them to any casting call that will have them. But hey--that is just the most hosed up reason I can think of... Certainly the kids are appearing for a reason less hosed up than that... Happens every day, called stage moms, momagers, etc. Just look at the kiddy pageants adults selling their children to the devil to live out their failed dreams.

Not only that, but he's calling our modus operandi from day loving 1 a "shift in the narrative." I think he forgets how many people here originally pledged for the same reason he did. We just smelled the scam sooner. And then continued to see the scam when it was so goddamned obvious you could see it from space. (The only space you can't see the scam from is inside Star Citizen.)

Like, STRUTS! are a million times funnier than Sandi actress tropes fan fic. Earlier this week, we were making fun of Citizens obsessed wIth Derek’s dick and then the thread spent a page or so riffing on Roberts’. And people keep talking about the upcoming Warframe features in the present tense which is an extremely Star Citizen move. Hi Vertices. This is my “We’re not so different you and I” speech.
