Sunswipe posted:So do we want the kickstarter to fail or not? Obviously I don't want thieves to prosper, but the hilarity gets dragged out if they succeed and then get sued by artists. I feel the same mixed emotions about CIG. I want Chris and Sandi to fail but want the Foundry guys to succeed. They could've made a great high fidelity space dogfighter free of all the bumpernuts Chris has added trying overcompensate for his insecurities about having not made a game in ages... Now SQ42 is so loaded down with them it can barely move...

*Grandpa starts talking about integrity, the reason he decided to go with his gut and his career instincts on doing his game his way, his vision at terrible risk* *Stream cuts out and pre-pubescent girl in a short skirt appears with bad looping rock music* Imagine being a fully grown rear end man and liking some anime girl unironically.

If this was in the UK the Robot Inspector would be a Health & Safety Officer from the local council, and by the time you filled out the paperwork and bought all the correct licenses, actual robots will have reached sentience. Here in Montreal (I would say Canada but they have little in common) you would have inspectors but they wouldn't give a poo poo as long as the thing is in French. On the other hand the illegal betting organized by those-businessmen-that-are-totally-not-the-mafia would make the game really interesting.

I asked in the chat if they were complying with Twitch guidelines and Federal law for giveaways. Somebody whispered me to "be nice", then the stream cut out. I'm sure it's coincidental timing, but lol.

Darkpriest667 posted:Ben just mentioned that he appreciates that Miku is testing the PTU and not streaming because "I know how much attention a new build gets when you're streaming." Yes Ben a whole 100 viewers out of half a million on twitch. It's a lot of attention. Heck, I get over 350+ when I'm streaming. Go figure.

Ben has lied to and robbed people in the name of his hero - that makes him a henchman at best. I have no sympathy.

The face of failure. Guys, I'm telling you, here on out, anything associated with Star Citizen, and anyone flying that banner, is considered toxic. Guaranteed. Just think, when croberts shilled even Infinity Battlescape, it didn't make a dent. And this measly $50K project, is still staggering to the gate. It's like Ted Cruz calling on Donald Trump to stomp for him. Oh, wait.

I'm guessing when they say 'redo the art to be more appropriate' they mean 'steal more obscure source images and jigger up the minimum amount of original artwork to please our totally legitimate copy of Steven Scuzzbaggs Guide to Legal Art Plagarism that we bought at a Half Price Books in 2007.'

There are no art sources obscure enough to stop Goons from finding and outing it within moments of its unveiling. It's a fool's errand these people are on. You'd have to be insane to allow yourself to be even tangentially linked to Star Citizen at this point.

Yeah, right. Once the game is funded they'll just get the cheapest art, plastic and cardboard known to man and deliver it. Why would they do otherwise? Because they are expecting a lot of boardgame nerds to buy an old game that is out of production? It is out of production for a reason.
