Can they rehire that female to read that to me? Thanks.


Srs: Nothing interesting in that article except that they're taking the right approach. Hopefully they'll stick to getting the combat to be a combination of enjoyable and skill based.

That's pretty much how the next 6 months+ are going to be. Everything they release will be pretty uninteresting.

Well inside the next 6 months, or so they have said, they will have pre-alpha stuff that won't be under NDA so we may be able to see how shit gets shaped up from time to time. I find that mildly interesting.

I wouldn't say six months. More like... 3 or so, since they plan on getting a pre-alpha release in that time frame. They'll be tuning and improvement on whatever they release, but if the game plays like shit even in a pre-alpha it's a very bad sign.

Curious how that kind of transparency will play out for them. You almost have to plan what pre-alpha will look like and strategically place features in the alpha you know you can improve to demonstrate some competence. I think with the right game plan, this idea can be very effective. They just have to make sure they do not bite off more than they can chew and avoid releasing too much at a time.

Every game plays like shit in pre-alpha. Your expectations are way too high.

I've been saying they need to market it like a reality show or documentary about making a game so tone down expectations a bit.

Won't work.

People will watch waiting for a fight or a fuck to break out, and that's just not something you want to see from old, fat, hairy pasty White dudes with one chick in the office.

Or do we? /strokes beard

I'm not saying put the camera in the studio and follow people around, but in a more of a daily blog and weekly video of what is going on. Toss in all the streamers and lack of NDA and you could have a good way to market the game.

I think we're fine as long as every camera is mounted at a 45 degree downward perspective facing Natalie.

So the art book they're selling is a bunch of images of their concept art? lol.

Maybe when they put out a sandbox you can go play house in with whatever p2w buildings you've got they can expect some cash revenue. I just don't know who is signing up to buy these things right now like they're SC ships.

Lots of people are into art books and shit. You see a lot of people using that reason when buying collectors editions.

I get physical art books, but not digital ones.

They should sell cam time with Natalie.
