Thinking about buying Squadron 42 along with Star Citizen during our Valentine's Day sale? That'll be $20 extra, please -- a savings of negative 5 dollars over the regular price!

(Apparently there is no $15 Squadron 42 addon, the only way you can purchase it is to buy a game package with SQ42 included.)

lmao the "holy poo poo we're one of the top 25 subreddits people hate to see" thread is producing some fantastic comedy



Also whatever the gently caress happened to imgur where they resize everything you upload is a real poo poo move.

Minus the split of two AAAA games:

Some nutball ran through the math where you could buy a double package, melt them then come out ahead versus another package they were offering.

I can't remember if it was on Reddit, or the CIG forums. A gently caress ton of creativity in the verse.

Nothing screams "charitable donation for game development with no expectation of return" like convoluted arbitrage schemes.

Also, while we're on the topic of charity, somebody please donate to rehome a Starfarer Gemini two-pack. None have been sold for 43 hours.

Arbitrage is a perfect term.

I know this is late, but thank you for providing the funding distribution versus time zones a week or so back based on my simple question.

It is Bioshit so I wont blame them if they say it is. My previous experience with TOR is enough for me to agree that it wont be superb.

Now will it match CR writing? I doubt it. WC set new standards. Then again so did TOR.

It's a thread about obsessively archiving Reddit and the CIG forums, it's never not weird.

I remember when a few people declared that the phrase "don't touch the poop" was stupid. This thread is what happens when the advice is no longer followed.

When I was a teenager I had those high hopes and dreams about upcoming games. One was Dawn, or something like that, where you could do ANYTHING! You could be a dragon and fight and grow and become powerful, stalk the streets as a vampire hunting for your victims, or be a hunter and craft every part of an animal into useful items.

All they had were a few ugly looking pictures and a lot of fluff and people hyping it up on their forum. This is eerily similar except instead of retarded teenagers it is grown men wrecking their marriages.
I was actually around there when Dawn was being hyped up.

The "creator" of which went on to ditch it for "Project X" which was going to be an Xbox game, until it wasn't anymore, and that also disappeared into the ether. He settled on his ancient html browser text "game" that is covered in ridiculously pricey pay2win that used to be mostly free, or maybe it's free again, who knows.

Project X suddenly changed its name to Nodiatis and became a somewhat more graphical clone of that game, without using the visual assets from "Dawn" like in the browser game I mentioned. Despite this not being anywhere near what the original pitch was.

The entire time, profits from that browser game were supposed to go into both Dawn and later pre-Nodiatis Project X.

It's all loving garbage and it hasn't died yet and nobody's been pointing any of it out.

He also named himself God in his browser game, and his "girlfriend" got the name "God's girlfriend"

Edit: upon further thought, the original version of that game was when the Dawn hype was around, but all the known assets started appearing in the improved version that continues to exist today. I'm sure it's just a coincidence that he silently dropped Dawn at around the same time.
