- Comment on Hero shooter Highguard reportedly didn't even pay for the Game Awards slot that's earned it so much preemptive hate—the showrunners thought it deserved the spotlight 2 weeks ago:
Honestly what I think happened is, in the lead up to the game awards there was a lot of talk about the cost of slots & I imagine the final of the show cost a pretty penny. Then I think no one was willing to buy said slot so the haphazardly shoved something in a lot closer to the event then the usually would. I doubt this was anyone's first choice.
- Comment on 16 minutes of HyTale gameplay 2 months ago:
I just think this is going to be a bit of a mess no matter what way it goes. People have such a different idea of what this game is now based on the riot drive.
& I can't help but think that's kinda the point of buying it, because you only need to sell it in one burst of hype to make a quick buck, look at cube world for example.
Also the game has been sold off once, if someone like M$ came knocking, even just to kill it, you think if he makes a huge profit off the purchase, he'll say no?
I think a lot of people have been waiting for this & the hype around it is just going to lead to disappointment.
- Comment on HyTale has been acquired by the original devs and is going to release into Early Access 2 months ago:
Except we already know that he's willing to sell, so if MS came knocking, i bet it'd be just a question of how much. If it can get off its feet of course.
- Comment on Many developers leave GZDoom due to leader conflicts and fork it into UZDoom 3 months ago:
The C:DDA devs almost feed off of being antagonistic. I'm so glad BN & TLG got spun off as their own cataclysm forks because the Core devs of DDA are really quiet negative.
