I played some Defiance yesterday (it goes retail next Tuesday) and it seems like it's ok. It's a cross between Borderlands and The Secret World, kinda. Lots of guns and interesting mechanics + post apocalyptic scifi poo poo. Third person shooter MMO. I'm on the fence if it's worth the money.

3rd person shooters that aren't stealth based are always gigantic pieces of poo poo

I've popped over to that thread. It blows my mind that this guy who hasn't developed a game in years raised 20-something million dollars. I can't see many indie studios handling that kind of budget without serious issues.

The 20 million is just donations, too. He already had 3 mill of his own to sink into it and a few other guys were throwing in over 500K a piece. I'd be shocked if it didn't get made at this point, because the alpha poo poo they've released has been pretty solid.

That said the forums for it are creepy internet space nerds who think EVE and the 90s kids show Capt. Bucky O'Hare is art.

I have had the opposite experience


I gave my usual UPS dude a key to my little courtyard/fenced in front yard so he can get in and out without leaving my poo poo to get rained on or stolen. Dude makes it happen, I drop him a $50 tip every holiday season

My brother's UPS dude also delivers to our office, so this guy actually realizes its the same guy and just delivers them to him at work, even if its the home address on the label.

Some dipshit I knew from the military bought 4 PS4's to flip for profit. He doesn't even realize that they're basically in stock from online retailers and in stores pretty regularly. I hope he gets hosed out of almost 2 grand.

I like that he's going to lose money for not adapting to the same marketplace that is also driving his supplier (Best Buy) out of business.
