Lord Stimperor posted:Wrong magazine, GameStar is the one with the rabid SC fan base (although by comparison, all Germans probably stand out with their receptiveness to the the space cult) The Europeans always seem a few years behind the North American Citizenry in coming to terms with the project’s grim reality. It lends credence to the Agent’s prediction that the next Citcon (if they have one) will be in Europe. While the citizenry here has been whittled down to its lunatic core and even they are entering the bargaining stage of grief “it’s fine if the game launches with 2 star systems!”. It always seems like the posts from Europeans are still crazy theory crafting about a space simulation of unprecedented scale and fidelity. Like I saw a post from a German dude the other day about how Chris isn’t really building a game, he’s building the first full universe simulation that will stretch from sea floor to nebulae and contains millions of hyper intelligent NPCs. colonelwest fucked around with this message at 01:59 on May 4, 2019 |

Nutbar edge cases can still function in society without bankrupting themselves and so still have disposable income to invest.

Of course he's the type of douche that thumbs up his own videos. Calling it: once the cash flow dries up on all fronts, CIG is just going to cobble together a space Garry's Mod/Goat Simulator, throw it out the door and call it finished. Dozens of spergs will praise it for being the truest space sandbox ever. Sandi will then strangle Chris for the last time.

I'm glad there are some people out there still hoping for something that was promised. Server meshing dude... you're going to be the most disappointed. But there's some people who would settle for not much, which is interesting. I wonder if they pay $60 for a AAA game and go into it thinking "well drat... I'd be happy with just a bootup loading spinner for the low cost of $60!" I'd love to get into some of these peoples heads who spent thousands on this video game, and what their expectations are and how low they go and then ask why. When I pay for a new game at $60, I'm pretty much expecting a full experience. Sometimes dozens of hours of gameplay or more. I don't understand how you could spend $1000's on what was promised to you, and then go to being ok that you would basically get a bare minimum, almost nothing of a game. Is there some kind of a spending threshold where the bar for excellence is super low, but when it exceeds a certain $$$ amount it transforms from "a game" into more like a lifestyle or an investment, and the end product or quality is no longer an issue? Way back in the day I fangirled over Final Fantasy XII and stood in line and bought the collectors tin or whatever it was for some $20 extra. I was legitimately happy and I played the crap out of that game. But if it was terrible I would have been unhappy with my decision, because I also bought some other collector edition games like Bioshock and I forgot I didn't really like FPS games and I found the whole "save a girl or kill a girl" mechanic kind of dumb (but I still liked the twist at the end and still played it through). I just wasn't keen on spending the extra money for a silly Big Daddy figurine and such. But those were full, totally playable games, with actual production quality and I don't recall either one ever crashing my system out. If I bought something like that and it was basically a junk product, barely stable, I'd be pissed, even if I only paid $60 for it without any extras. Now you have people spending thousands, and they are somehow ok with it. I will probably never understand why, or understand why as time goes on these people don't get pissed off rather than ok with whatever junk CIG manages to cough out.

Ahh, but if you bought FFXII at full price and it was garbage and you could not get refunded, you would kinda feel stupid for buying it right? Now what if you only pre-ordered FFXII, spent months not playing any other game while getting anyone who would listen to you to buy it too. Then it comes out and is utter garbage. You'd look foolish. Now imagine how stupid and humiliated you'd be if it was say a $5000 game instead of $60. You aren't that stupid are you? Of course not, that's impossible!

It would be easier to understand a jellyfish and its motivations than people this emotionally and mentally damaged. There are people who spend their careers studying this, and they get old and die while getting no closer to understanding it. Backer brains are as broken as CIG's code base.

Human desire is a really weird thing, and it's clear that there's some deep primal itch being scratched by Crobbers. In defense of that longing people do some bizarre things, like throw thousands of dollars at an underbaked project and attacking rabidly against any and all comers. The problem is viewing it as a commercial transaction when identity and longing are apparently wrapped around the project as tightly as it can be.

Golli posted:The real story there is not that they are a couple of jumped-up bogans, it is the fact that when presented with official court documents detailing an embarrassing period in their lives, they both refused to acknowledge it. Which indicates a much deeper problem - lack of integrity (and perhaps a touch of insanity). Again, not news to us, but important to the readers of the article to help illustrate why the project is in such a state. CR will absolve himself of anything!

The problem is viewing it as a commercial transaction when identity and longing are apparently wrapped around the project as tightly as it can be. Maybe, but there's more than one underlying pathology here. Attacking a negative article won't make the game come out, but backers defend it as if it will. Saying "goons are behind the FUD" won't make the game come out, but backers repeat it regardless. E:D being bad doesn't make SC good, but they recite mantras as if it's true. This is basically barbaric, primitive, religious magical thinking, and it permeates every level of this project. Chris is the only one who is failing in epic fashion, he's the only one they should hold accountable, and he's the only one they never will. That's not just longing. These people are completely broken. I'm prepared to categorize them as a sub-species at this point.

That photo in the airport when they were on their way to Maui Maui or whatever island in the pacific that went totally unannounced and received no special attemtiom from backers was a candid shot that had nothing to do with anything related to stalking or doxxing. You see, the photo was taken by a backer who graciously pledged over 500$ to see his dream g*drones on for hours*

How do you "respond in time to catch them afterwards"? If you responded in time, you wouldnt catch them afterwards. But I digress, lets get back to the grounded realism of my spaceship that can't do mach 2 in space and has GRAVITY GOO.

The problem is viewing it as a commercial transaction when identity and longing are apparently wrapped around the project as tightly as it can be. But that's exactly how marketing works. You work to establish a brand that people can identify with and attach value to. You're either a Coke person or a Pepsi person. You're a Ford guy or a Chevy guy. Starbucks or Dunkin' Donuts. In a world where social media allows you to connect with anyone, people struggle to find what they're going to connect over. Star Citizen was a promise; an opportunity to experience your own personal Star Wars in a massively immersive environment where you could be something. You'd have an experience you could share with your friends, doing something ambitious and amazing. People will gladly pay hundreds or even thousands to achieve that dream. Escapism is incredibly powerful.

It's like buying a house, and the original blueprint is amazing. But as it goes, the walls are cardboard, the foundation is mud, and I'm still getting more pictures of what more rooms are going to look like but the rooms I have already are nothing like the old pictures I already paid for. And the whole time I'm somehow not getting super pissed off but instead I keep funding construction.
