I like how there are people here still saying stuff like "he is doing X (allegedly)", "he will do X, we will wait", "assuming what he say is true, ...."
I honestly never saw anyone here advising anyone to pledge even a broken penny to gumdrop.
We can safely assume that gumdrop is going to milk DF for all its worth. That's a given.
We can safely assume he has no intention of finishing his game. He admitted as much by stating outright that it's not a game that he wants to finish.
But he did drop something in his last two deadlines. Sure, he did that to stop the bleeding, and neither of the two "games" are in continuity of "legacy" DF, but he's doing something. So it's safe to assume he's going to do something on the 30th of April. It's probably going to be yet another reminder that he's an arsehole and that any and all patrons should cease support immediately, but it's going to be there and I'm morbidly curious how it's going to play out.
And honestly, what else do you have if you were a fan of the old DF? If you come to this thread, you'll see the occasional quote from his Patreon campaign, a couple of hopefuls that pick apart gumdrop's posts, three times as many people that drop shit on those hopefuls and accuse them of being shills and several hundred pages of almost identical comments that remind you it's a scam.
Sure guys, it's a great strategy to just drop shit on anyone who's a genuine fan of DF and who earnestly wants the development to continue. I'm sure he's going to immediately withdraw all pledges when you call him a brainwashed idiot for not seeing the obvious scam or accuse him of being a criminal complicit in the scam and asking how much he's earning.
At best, people will just think this forum is toxic and leave.
At worst, people will think you've been personally wronged by gumdrop and you're out on a vendetta.
At what point do you realize what is happening? it has been literally 3 years. Time to let it go and accept the facts.
Meh, it costs us nothing. We can get whatever gumdrop spews out for free when he drops an update, so I'm free to follow this thread.
About motion capture, I've no idea why he pulled that out of his arse, it's not like it's in any way relevant to DF and I sincerely hope people will chew him out over that.
