Beer4TheBeerGod posted:Some folks didn't sign NDAs when they left. The reason they aren't talking is because they want another job. Doesn't stop the internal discussions. There's also the aspect that there's nothing to talk about. That sounds ridiculous on the face of it, but think about it. Everyone in the industry (everyone) knows what's going on at CIG. In those circles, people talk about it all the time. War stories are traded back and forth all day. What people are really expecting to see, for some reason, is gaming media talking about it. But what, exactly, is the incentive for those who have escaped to go trolling around to various media outlets to try and get the story out? Which ones can you trust? Will they do it anonymously? Will the anonymity be respected, or will they be outed, threatening their current employment? If it does stay anonymous, why do they think it will make any more impact than the wet fart the Escapist article made? Even if they want to "do the right thing", the media has dropped the ball on this story for years. It's completely lop-sided - all the risk is taken on by the ex-employee, with zero reward, and zero guarantee that it will bring anything to light. Not to mention the threat the cultist backers represent - how will they handle someone willing to go on the record about this? Sometimes silence tells a story more loudly than noise.

A Neurotic Jew posted:yessss this is the second web-site to do this in two days. Its passive journalism but at least its some kind of consumer filter. PC Invasion Blog Rock Paper Shotgun Does this mean that they are the only gaming sites to run the free fly extension press release? There was definitely a release because there's an article in the Irish Examiner as well. In fact that's the only other place I can see in google news that mentions the free fly.

Lonkface posted:Well, I noticed Chris' hair colour changing between episodes. Guess they shoot them in bigger bunch and do the weekly releases, which makes sense. Just something I noticed because sometimes he has grey spots and then they vanish. Crobbler should accept he's old and going grey is okay! This is what a shill post looks like btw

Kavak posted:Possibly, TSR was in all kinds of poo poo shape in the mid-late '90's. Wizards of the Coast wanted to really tone down some of the more out-there aspects of D&D in 3rd Edition, so they focused on Greyhawk (Didn't last long), Forgotten Realms, and later Eberron. Dark Sun got a revival in 4th Edition, and 5th Edition barely exists but is supposed to be using Forgotten Realms as its core setting, but still no sign of Planescape outside mentions of Sigil in various descriptions of the Planes. The neglect of Dragonlance is a goddamn crime and the Dragonlance goldbox trilogy stole countless dozens of hours of my life as a kid. I never did get around to beating Dark Queen of Krynn though. loving enchanted draconian fights just got too soul-crushing later on.  Forgotten Realms is cool, and I'd be totally down for Beamdog to do a Ruins of Myth Drannor-focused mini expansion for Baldur's Gate, but Dragonlance really should've gotten an Infinity Engine game.

SomethingJones posted:I wonder if they've patched that thing to handle itself when it goes into the red. Surprisingly, I did see the funding tracker decrease recently -- it looks like the recent Completionist was either a troll purchase or asked for a refund. So the funding tracker went down by about $15K. Unfortunately I didn't capture the hourly/daily summaries to see what happened with those.

I'm hoping they do a followup to Dragonspear for BG II like they seem to be implying at the end of it. Trent Oster said that if they looked at more Infinity and Beyond Engine (My term) games, Dragonlance and Dark Sun would be up there...

KM Scorchio posted:What are your feelings about Dark Elves? This is important. Annoying and overrated. I still get annoyed every time I wander into that one map where D'rizzt is hanging out. I really like the bit with the illithid, after you get ship-wrecked, but the whole drow section just goes on and on and on

I never did get around to beating Dark Queen of Krynn though. loving enchanted draconian fights just got too soul-crushing later on. I thought I was the only living Dragonlance fan left alive. The Gold Box series was my drug as well. I still fondly remember the high-quality raised-ink Phlan newspaper that came in the box. If you read it carefully, it was filled with hints about places you could go and things you could do in the game world. I had a huge Dragonlance map on my wall throughout college. I wish I knew where it went.

The worst was at the end when all your magic gets taken away and you have to stay half the map away so the enchanted draconians don't ice storm and fireball all over you when you pummel them with arrows. Even Pools of Darkness wasn't that annoying.

Or maybe he's looking at a wall clock, because he's hankering for another snort and wants the recording to be over.

Lonkface posted:I can sympathize with Ben's problems. I know what it's like getting "lost" early on in life. It's not the easiest thing to pick up from especially if you end up turning into a hermit. It's even tougher to look into the mirror and accept the fact that you're the one to be blamed for that and only you can do something about it. I can sympathize too, understanding how growing up though permanent hopelessness forces you to do whatever you can to escape reality (hello 16 hours of wow a day). hosed up place to be and not everyone survives to find another way to live. That said, just loving apologize straight and acknowledge that the content might genuinely upset somebody, and that's not okay regardless of the circumstances. It's okay to have grown through it and lived it and truly needed that group to survive but ffs can he really not see how it might offend a random person who knows nothing about any of this? gently caress you Ben if you can't accept anything in your past being 'not okay' just because you lived it.
