I completely agree with you on that @c3p0 . Stretching yourself is good, stressing to much is not and yeah I think the fact Palanto is extremely busy atm is a given. Well from our side we can only have some patience and not put further pressure on.
Yeah, I really hate the way that some game companies try and bilk more money out of their fans, through DLC and microtransactions... particularly for content and crap that should've been in the game to begin with.When I was playing this game types, I would like to enjoy the moments I build my empire, before I have to destroy every enemy on my map to win. Usually the PC was killing me first, not short after I has set out to my quest...
Then I've change my attention to the city builder games
But before the internet was wide available the haven't had this insulting business idea to sell half finish beta version or have their beta access tied to buy the game in advance or even to have some ridiculous DLC that is available since day 0 of the game release and is an integral part of the main game......
If I would set the same scale from such a game on WC I'm sure I would nearly wet myself laughing:
So I'm going to sleep workday today was hell, so please don't kill me in my sleep for my evil ideas
- Lynara obvious would be a lock char, most likely with the whole story about her side
- loading time would be about 3times greater
- also obvious we would must install a virus *äh* rootkit *äh* copy protection system that requires always internet connection for *very* *impotent* reasons
- of course each translation would also be a DLC
- and we would have the game without proper grammar and to compensate it the erros would be much more
- also the scene that was block before the gold master release would't be a bug, but another DLC
And Jack, of course, @DA22 and I always have the chair (and the rope or chain) ready for an unrestricted working environment
@DA22 is correct, I am indeed thinking more along the lines of Dragon Age... I actually enjoyed that game and storyline much more than Mass Effect and was certainly much more invested in it till EA got their hands on it.Trust my experience EA is not as evil as it seems. Unpopular opinion, I know. But trust me
When making a product its always Money Spend on Product vs ROI. Video game don't escape that capitalist view!
@Palanto has been massively buried under a SHIT-TON of work... he is now free from the security job that had him working 12-14 hour shifts 6 days a week and has started his new I.T. job, which has better hours for him, better pay... but, doesn't allow him to work on our game while he is at work, like he was able to do while sitting in a guard post working security.
Say our best wish to @Palanto if you see him next time. We all know, that RL can and, hopefully only from time to time, will fuck you quite up, but what can we do...
Dumb question on my side: Why should your opinion weight more than his or mine?...
I won't get into fights but I'll state something : People talk about shit they don't know, based on preconceived opinions and not facts or the actual reality.
For example, Bioware was purchased in 2007. Dragon Age 1 (Origins) was publish in 2009. So your point that EA ruined the franchise is proven wrong
Bioware was fully independent for their dev cycle until they started to fuckup. ME:A is one example where they fucked up on their own and had to release as they were in development since 2012 (5 years of development cost a lot).
Anthem was in development since 2011. If Anthem sucks, clearly not EA fault as they had all the time in the world. And trust me, they shot themselves in the foot with that game. More than once.
Sadly the games that sold well in the year 2000 doesn't sell quite as much (even when it releases with good quality). That's not what kids and teenagers wants, and they represent the core market.
...
Again, an opinion, not fact.
Sure the old EA under Riccitiello was like that. Under Wilson, way more independence of decisions.
Anyway, I won't loose time in this thread trying to explain. I am fed-up having to do this rodeo of explanation all the time.
Good luck.
And if you say that are fact, word alone are not enough for this statement
I will stand only in this line as I believe anyone may have an opinion. Any reason or benefit to do this rodeo all the time?
I hope he does too... because I can't do this on my own or without him.
Yeah, really don't want to get into a HUGE discussion about this either, as I told someone else elsewhere...I won't get into fights but I'll state something : People talk about shit they don't know, based on preconceived opinions and not facts or the actual reality.

My reason would be a simple. Perhaps I could learn something from it.
You know, this forum is not your day job?...
Anyhow, this is one of those topics that I prefer not to repeat my opinions and thoughts on... my day job requires me to work with some of these people and I prefer to keep my job, as I really, really need that job because I haven't struck it rich working on my own!
Best thing could happen, someone with more money that he (or she) can count, would think: "I like what this guy thinks, I like his game and I have what he miss. A few of them:"
. You, for sure, don't earn enough that this could be your working place Otherwise go back to work, don't slack of here.
FONV had been out for 5 years before I started to play it so by the time I did there were literally thousands of Mods released by then to make game playable. Oh and I wasn't too young. I wil be 60 this year young manWe have a troll here!
You might have been too young to remember, but Fallout New Vegas was a nightmare of a bug fest game. It was literally unplayable post 10 hours of gameplay as they had a major bug where your save files were over 250mb after that amount of play-time. It tooks them 3 months to fix it. A modder fixed it before
. It never got as good to play as FO2 though which I thought was a great game but what do we have now FO4 and that other unmentionable disaster and no amount of Modding will save either FO4 or that game I cant even begin to utter the name of. Ironically I found TTW very stable and FO3 very stable when modded with TTW(Tale of Two Wastelands).
