be glad that the community gave allot of negative feedback.. how else are they supposed to know they did something bad

it's not like they are in kindergarten and we should spare their feelings, they done something bad business wise.. and they're going to feel it.. period.


I didn't say we don't have the right to judge their game or anything. We just shouldn't jump to conclusions regarding the company.

PS: We already have plenty of shitty games out there.

So if I get a 100grand loan to finance the most promising 'lopers mod, then sign on three lopers plus me to work on it for a year, who would be in for the haul? 100G would get four people through a year on rice and coffee, right? I could even keep working my job week on week off and you could all stay in my unit, rent free. On my week off I'll model like a madman and we'd have it done in a year, right? Who's in?

I don't think people would have minded so much if the developers had some sense of modesty, saying risible things such as "we're going to make a AAA title in a year!" - things like that seemed very arrogant.

It was certainly very foolish to jump into an industry with no experience - imagine getting up one day and deciding to become a builder? I'm sure if someone threw plenty of money to you, you'd be able to build something but it would probably be a very expensive wendy-house full of holes that nobody really wants.

Being competent at practicing a trade takes time, it's better to build your skills and learn from mistakes before even considering a large undertaking of any kind.

Fabric softener is the worst. Also this isn't 4chan.

LETS MAKE A HOLLYWOOD MOVIE WITHIN A YEAR WITH A SMALL BUDGET AND NO EXPERIENCE.

Pretty much that, but then with a game. No surprise.
