    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    It's OK though because he remains optimistic and optimism cures everything apparently. Funny about Tom, he had a huge presence for a week and totally bailed.

    I guess I'm IP blocked from the official site. It's for telling people they can go around the back door to read advanced forum posts, so I guess they're made that I use a function of their site.

    Everything being said was actively contradicted by the rest of the team. After Brad left a few of the devs hung around for a long time and mocked the whole thing. Funny thing is everyone said they weren't close to Brad at all. I assumed a lot of them were buddies.

    Because all of the work on display was done prior to any crowdfunding, the team was paid chump change for the actual work that was done, and none of them know how the money disappeared. The people doing the work did not absorb that money.

    Brad on the demo: "It's quite real. It consists of one zone, largely outdoors, and then the entrance to and a big part of a dungeon. It is populated with mobs that you can engage using a prototype of our Combat system. It also has a large dragon who you cannot engage, but he looks pretty...

    The site is terrible looking and operates poorly. It's pretty funny that any money goes to keeping it up. Building into the KS launch Brad did talk of leveraging SOE tech and spending wisely because AAA budget MMOs are killing creativity. Pantheon needed an 4A budget if he's blowing nearly...

    Ben seems like a good guy, but I never understood the need for a PR guy and nobody on the team seemed well-versed in what that means in a modern gaming world anyways. Obviously that was the least of this project's issues though. Kickstarter projects need a small core of incredibly dedicated...

    No social media expert would push Google+. The only people pushing Google+ is Google. It's crazy how infrequently the team engaged supporters or tried pushing through various popular social media channels. People don't warm up to people they don't hear or see and let's be honest, nobody even...

    It might be worth it to give this whole thing some exposure at some media sites like Rock Paper Shotgun, they're typically good with bringing controversies to light. Also, boogie really needs to back off any level of support he has for Brad and this project. It's naivety, but it's making him...

    Definitely caught the other guys off guard and the money poofing seems unexplained even factoring in the change the devs were given. Maybe there should've been a safeguard in place to prevent the cash from vanishing.

    Brad couldn't explain the 160k number on the site or if it was accurate. He just saw the numbers coming into the checking account and couldn't elaborate beyond that. His words. Vhalen ain't the only one who didn't get much, but as he said in his Rob and Dan interview, he won't be detailing...

    The money still raises some serious concern. I'm going to guess what's being paid back to the workers as "industry standard" is minimal for all but a couple of people. Where did the $160,000 go? I mean, they only just landed that money and it's been spent. I wanna see the receipts. If it was...

    Not bad on the price and I totally see where you're coming from on the last sentence. It's definitely lost a bit of its appeal to me, but I can never seem to stop myself from wanting to hand pick everything. My build is about a year old now and I can't remember the total cost, but shopping at a...

    I'll continue to back Kickstarters I believe in, I've had some great games come my way. I backed out of this when nothing added up. It's risky, but can be quite awesome. Playing it safe is probably the smartest though, let others make the dream happen (or not). The office was acquired I'm...

    That's the craziest thing. They've already spent through the $160,000 which means they paid themselves good for the Kickstarter crap and naturally the rented office was a huge waste of everyone's time and money. Anyone who put money toward the site shoudl have seen this coming.

    You've got an Internet's worth of sites to shop from, of course you'll save money and get more power in the process. Whether or not it's worth it to you is a different story and while I'd still just build my own, sites like ibuypower certainly make a solid argument for just letting someone else...

    Also, get your CPU from Microcenter if you have one nearby. It's always in-store only for a CPU, but their prices are crazy low. AMD prices on graphics cards are typically a nice value but are jacked right now because of cryptocurrency. I don't even fully understand that, but there you go.

    It's crazy how elaborate some people's designs are but the one thing that's kind of jarring is that the voxels looks really bad from a distance. I wonder if they're working on a solution to that for EQN or if predetermined locations like a Freeport wouldn't suffer as badly. The game looks nice...
