Without going into a long list, the relevant standard is that works in a fashion that's intelligent. I've already pointed out some examples.
My point is and has been is I don't believe this is a well managed project. I've aired some examples.
I have no financial involvement due to the aforementioned reason. I originally only stated my disappointment since it seems to be a prominent and obvious issue.
The reason why I have mentioned money is because that does influence people's expectations, this project is no exception. 40k is a lot of money (sub 500k/Y if it keeps up). It's foolish to think that doesn't matter.
Side note:I'm pretty sure DC previously worked as an artist, stating that early on but I don't recall him specifying an industry. Maybe he has but from my own experience in the game industry what he is doing does not lead to a successfully built project. It's incredibly fortunate that he has so much leeway right now but as I've stated I have no clue how long that will last because it usually doesn't.
Okay I'm done. See ya when this releases in a week or two.
You're free to believe it's not a well managed project if you will. But everyone hired has come together and it's been a process you can't ignore. From starting from scratch to allowing a free product, DC has successfully crowdfunded a game and continues to do so.
Yes, DC worked in the gaming industry and has that potential to create games for publishers. But your "standards" don't really apply since AAA publishing and indie publishing have dissimilar standards.
Why you guys get worked up on your Mental Masturbation projects, I've no idea.
Just don't get your stains on the wall...
