So how long until they sell the rights to EQ to a mobile game studio that gives less shits?

Fixed that for you

All the work that Storybricks the company did is still being used. They are no longer using Storybricks for further development of... Storybricks... and will be continuing that work in house. The confusion is that the AI system and the company share the same name.

Oh okay, thanks for the clarification. I think that was the most interesting feature of EQN: non static world/gameplay. I don't really care about voxels, but SB was a cool concept.

And I spent a month busting ass to get Storybricks to do an interview. Now they cut these fuckers? Fuck them.

The guy who sat on that interview for a month was terminated at the previous round of funding

Storybricks guys are watching the thread and it sounds like most, but not all the info is under NDA. Sounds like they'll be able to talk a bit more about it soon.

I want to hire storybricks to see if they can make an AI post and argue with Tad everyday.

preliminary design idea of how it would look

Looks good, but those are all assets from the asset store!

At least they still have SOEmote (name change pending).

SOEmote has to be, hands down, the stupidest idea ever brought forth in a mmo.

I can't believe no one at SOE had the balls over the last 3 years to tell Georgeson that it was a stupid, stupid idea, and a complete waste of resources.

Hey man I think it was going to rock.

I'd have totally roleplayed with that system on a pve only server, right guys!?

gogojira_sl · Feb 23, 2015

I'd really like to know how much money they spent on a technology nobody will ever care about. I mean, even a $50 investment is too much.

They're not alone on that front. CA wasted time on "impressive" facial animations for commanders in Rome II. Because you know, people playing strategy games (where a single fight has potentially thousands of actors) really want to zoom in close on their guys in all these epic moments!

going to vomit.

Anyway, SOEmote, the faces they expect people to make

The face people actually make

Would pay for that.

SOEmote is the innovation we deserve but not the one we need right now.
