Good Dumplings posted:Jesus, it's like the little rumble you feel right before an earthquake knocks everything over. They're not even trying to hide what they're doing anymore; do they seriously want Hollywood that bad? They already have a bad rep there, who would work with them? A mocap studio is like a lateral slide back, but there are two things Hollywood doesn't forgive or forget: Antisemitism and breaking a contract. It is a futile dream, much like Star Citizen. The best they can hope for is famous faces in their mocap studio. Forget acting, producing, directing or writing. It ain't gonna happen. Hefty posted:Didn't read this or the last couple threads. I didn't miss anything funny, did I? Game's still humming along right on schedule? Crobert's game has 10 hours of cutscenes, more than any Hideo Kojima game. He also bought 2 mocap studios and rented 2 for his space sim.

I'm looking forward to when "planetside progress reports" in CIG will mean walking around the movie studio under construction.

Raskolnikov posted:edit: I unironically love the void and it is a good game if you like buggy Russian games that like to take a poo poo on you. I agree that it is a cool game, even though I always have to convince myself to get started with its second half...and then stop playing for a long while again after like 1 hour or so. And holy poo poo...congrats, Jared - you just admitted that the 'promo' material for new work was actually all old stock footage - fine community management there, pal! Great job working on new stuff, CIG - I'm so glad I got my money out from under you!

Concerning the new Studio. They have said they wanted to rent out the mocup stuff from the beginning. I was just assuming that idea was cancelled. Guess not. However a more interesting question is: Under which legal entity is this new studio? Assuming the CIG financial state really is as lovely as we think it is, CR would certainly try and insulate his secondary projects from the eventual bankruptcy of the Star Citizen fiasco.

Poe's law Asylum1408 1 point 8 hours ago Wow you just imagined about 3 years of dev work to create ![]() permalinkparent [–]RedrunGun 1 point 8 hours ago I know, but SC is already so ambitious that it stimulates my creativity and makes me wonder how far they'll take it. I'm sure there's plenty of gameplay mechanics that they've been working on for a while and we just haven't heard about it yet.

It would be nice if something legal stuck; if only to prove that in a very small and largely irrelevant way sometimes the world works like poor schmucks fervently believe it should. 'cause if not, then all they've been doing is peeling off healthy double and triple wages, investing that and their other ill-gotten gains in as much as they can cut and run away with, and all the silly shut-ins who poured cash into this can get hosed. ![]() ![]()

I think the worst, most telling barometer in this whole thing is who Chris Roberts has chased away from his old Origin/DA posse. Eric Peterson, with him at the beginning at Origin, at DA, with CIG. Left. Travis Day, son of the Elder Day, long time Origin and DA and CIG. Left. Martin Galway, Origin and DA. Forced to leave. George Oldziey, Origin, didn't even get so much as a sideways glance after 6 months. Rob Irving, Origin, left shortly after Eric. These were the guys that backed CR and his project, or at least signed on slightly later saying "I'm sure we can do this". I never really talked to Tony, he was always busy when I was at the Austin office. I can't imagine what's going through his head, should the downsizing/obsolescence of the Austin office come true. As I've been finding out, the echoes of my own investigation got around and I've been hearing from other ex-Origin folks who knew CR to be a Hollywood wanna-be and what's happening is kinda close to what development went through with WC4. Beyond actors looking for work, I can't think of any Hollywood-era CR folks backing him up. Lesnick is the only one I can think of from Origin days that still stands beside CR. Considering how much of his life he's dedicated to keeping Wing Commander semi-relevant, both in material preservation and the CIC site itself, I'm not sure he can tear himself away from the project. He moved from Maryland to Austin to LA in the span of 3 years, all while getting married. I can't imagine Ben and Alexis are comfortable. Honestly, I think he's as fed up with this project as I am. But he's the nerd jester in CR's court, being told to dance. And he will, it's a job. It's all just... poo poo.

How's the morale in the studios? I mean if all this is true, and things are still "fine" in the studios, the management is doing a good job keeping everyone ill informed. Either that or everyone still thinks they're making the game?

Bootcha posted:I think the worst, most telling barometer in this whole thing is who Chris Roberts has chased away from his old Origin/DA posse. And those are exactly the guys that I found the most likeable, personally. I believe one leaving. Even two. But streams of top talent leaving tells me that they can't work with Chris. And when scores of people tell you they can't work with someone, there's smoke. Add that to the ex-employees, and I have little doubt about what is happening behind all the smiley faces. Martin is a little more outspoken about the issues compared to the other guys.
