So in that atv video the one guy was talking about 'we just recently shot more animations' just how long has Crobberts been camped out at the mocap studio for ? Wasn't that the place that was like hundreds of dollars a second to shoot anything ?

It seems like they've been shooting mocap for literally a year or more straight

If sq42 ever comes out its going to be like a FMV game from the 90s isn't it ? Click on an npc and watch as it switches from in game to movie of the actor going through the lines

God drat I am angry at this specific video game

That's literally every Crobbers-produced game, I think in Freelancer there's like 15 minutes of cutscenes before you get to fly anything

Yeah, I felt bad for the guy and his team. They worked hard on this. Miyazaki eviscerated them; I don't think I've ever witness such a thorough critical beatdown.

Not getting called out leads to garbage like Star Citizen though, I'll take feeling like poo poo for a day over putting out poo poo for years and thinking I'm a genius for it.

Sure, but it's a pretty big leap from nascent AI project to psychotic crowd funding scam.

I'm not sure it is, this started as a nascent MMORPG extension to a pitch for a space sim. And even if they aren't the same size or have the same intention, criticism is still important to prevent things from turning into awful slogs like this.

POOL IS CLOSED posted:

I'm definitely not going to say that critique is bad or should be delivered in the form of a poo poo sandwich. That would be pretty hypocritical of me, since I really rely on it for my work. I just found Miyazaki's delivery to be unusually brutal.

It totally was, though to me it's understandable because he's probably looking at it from a way longer perspective than the devs were - like if this is what they think's worthwhile now, what will they end up crapping out ten years from now? It's kind of like if you were shown a really, really well-drawn Syrian refugee pony OC and the artist asks you "how they could improve it".

POOL IS CLOSED posted:

Accept pledges to draw it in various spasschips of course!

I'm still not entirely sure how "AIs with no notion of limb differentiation" translates into the team's stated goal of "AIs that make art like humans," but I don't know nothin' about no videogame development. That last part seemed to be what offended Miyazaki the most -- he's a humanist to the core, and any effort that aims to replace human ingenuity with artificial machine calculation probably seems obscene from his perspective. His response after the cut was pretty bleak.

Also because the team doesn't seem to know why they're working on the project; given that it's no surprise what they're making has no use and no sense of humanity. They didn't mean to, but they basically told an old man that his descendants don't know where they're going and don't care.

I ran to Kickstarter the economical capital of CIG from were I am contacting you.

The stronger the negative consequences the greater effect of griefing. But SC fans are mostly care bears who can't even handle dissenting opinion. These two facts are incompatible. Thus SC, even if delivered as promised,is hosed.

Even elite had to create the solo play mode so the Care Bears could be space truckers in peace.

Walking around is always my favorite thing to do in an MMO. Screw having hundreds to thousands of places to explore. Who needs things like salvage, repair, cargo, an economy--bah those things are so over-rated. My perfect MMO needs walking around and a golf swing--in space. Coincidence that EA stopped making PGA Tour in 2015? I think not!

Legit question, what is it about Walking In Spaceships that gets people so obsessed? Like what do people think they're going to do that's so exciting compared to bullet waltzes at Mach 6?
