Yes, it boils down to Little Orphan Annie Goes In Search of the MacGuffin.
You did read it right? If you remove the 80s cultural references there’s not much left except a virtual reality treasure hunt - through a completely empty space because you removed all the cultural references.
I’m surprised at how little nostalgia I have watching this. I recognize most of the pre-cataclysm landscape, but it doesn’t entice me back at all.
This works equally well for Ready Player One and Armada.
Its not accurate - it needs to shoot NERF darts.
Don’t listen to them; you’ve risked nothing and if its not a scam, you can buy the game and be just as well off as any of the people who spent thousands on in-game merchandise within a few weeks of playing.
I don’t know what is going on with this, but I’m skeptical. I never backed it because I feel that if you have a reasonable business plan you can get financing through conventional means - and the only reason not to do this is because you don’t want to be beholden to anyone telling you they need to see a return on…
I only have one data point to work from, but the evidence suggests you should never try to make the game Destiny was supposed to be, you’ll wind up with Destiny.
But if the money spigot turns off they might have to actually start freezing features and releasing stuff instead of redoing artwork and ships.
Then you’re already dead by this point and someone is explaining how you went for their gun.
/wish I was joking
I actually was pointing out how hypocritical you were to think accusing someone of enjoying Pokemon is an insult after a TLDR diatribe about how crap games that defy models of play are above criticism because how dare anyone codify what games are or what someone might enjoy.
I never insulted you. I criticized an idea…
Everyone is for allowing the developer to pursue their vision, until it makes them uncomfortable.
Saw the last line, didn’t waste any time reading your post. There is a theory of games and they encompass more things than ‘pokemon’ (seriously, how dare anyone enjoy something, right?). You are absolutely free to throw caution to the wind and make a punishing, arbitrary, unrewarding experience that no one is going to…
No, thats fine, its that they tweeted ‘bae’ that makes them horrible.
We could fund the kickstarter with kickstarter, a kick-kickstarter. The stretch goals could be more humiliating than simply getting kicked in the rear, perhaps noogies and swirlies.
It could be bigger than star citizen.
Its a dumb concept typical of people who have not done any basic readings on the subject of motivation in games. Go play it. Tell me how compelling it is to have the game arbitrarily pulled out from under you by the actions of other players and then come back and tell me how wrong I am - that the gimmick of this being…
Well, if the kickstarting involved literal kicking, I’d go for it.
Nobody reads the fine print. I just clicked accept terms so I could get to the overhyped Molyneaux game!
Peter Molyneaux is a myth, I don’t believe he exists. He’s a ghost-story used by parents to keep their children from going into game design.
Hey, that baby just bought some meth!
