I know BC has his idiosyncrasies, but does he not grok that at this point, a questionable translation is much less bad than further delays? I mean, he doesn't owe us pirates anything, but for fucks sake he should be putting more weight on catering to his patrons than his personal hangups.
Hence why he posted it to everyone and wanted their feedback before moving on, he's now been met with near universal approvals of the idea and it should get him over his hangups and get things moving....I hope.
I really hope so also Hubris can be a double edged sword, either raising talent to great heights or pummeling it into oblivion.
That's kinda unfair. Those projects had vision, competence, planning and hard work. This one has...good PR?
I wouldn't call it good PR...
i think skymmy is doin ghte best he can with what info he gets from blue cat and his crew
You really shouldn't be hard on yourself. If you Goggle "We are professional manipulators" you should find an article from the University of South Carolina from a Dr. Shannon Bowen, who researches and teaches PR ethics at the School of Journalism and Mass Communications that claims PR reps (in anonymity) say that they lie and manipulate professionally.
Not only that, teams of thousands of employees working potentially around the clock every day for that time period.
I'm self deprecating, I think its breeds humility if you break yourself down and keep off of the high horse in the first instance, while still recognizing that you have worth. Pride and standing on your values has a slippery slope to hubris and beating people over the head with principles. :3You really shouldn't be hard on yourself.

Honesty and integrity may be the minority but perseverance and time will tell. Truth always invariably comes out.
Very true, "He who knows others is wise; he who knows himself is enlightened." - Lao Tzu.
I wouldn't expect a faster than previous content pace or more in those releases though. The bottleneck will always be the image creation side since it would take the most time to do generally. Not sure how the alpha/beta's went with script/translation corrections but perhaps it would speed up that aspect if it played a part previously.
Soooo...guess this is good news for Bluecat. He won't have to skim down the script. More script, more renders, more content.
Playtesters are proofreaders, and we're free, or actively pay to be in that position and thus we pay him to fix his writing lol.
The problem with that comparison is that all those were many hundreds or thousands of employees working around the clock with years and years of experience in the field, putting together pre-made components (especially the latter two; those timescales are not from first creation of material, but in the former is putting together all the modular pieces that were premade and then sealing them together, and the latter the blocks were already assembled and just needed to be put into place in the framework of the skyscraper).
I beg to differ.
