Yes, and they are busy getting their shit pushed in because they fucked around with someone else's IP without getting a license. A lot of these projects could become actual games of their own if they stopped trying to make EQ + XYZ. Some could actually compete with EQ or DDO or LOTRO etc in...

It's only weird because you know how it will play out, but wish it wouldn't. Their absolute refusal to instance anything means they are DOA. Fix that one thing and the rest would be manageable. People aren't going to waste time in a game that revolves around competing for camps. End game is the...

I'd rather be celibate.

No. You can't. People will build tools to manually make the db if your system doesn't let them see it. That's how it always has been, and how it always will be. Plan accordingly.

Yeah, that would definitely not be OK. People really need to stop trying to fix EQ without getting a license from DBG first. And if they can't get a license, put that tech knowhow into something new instead.

Roberta Williams.

SMS and Sega Genesis were absolute bangers.

Her divorce and the public image issues from his degeneracy were what tanked Jack Ryan's career. That was the direct reason why Obama got elected in IL, which was what got him national attention and why he became president.

Is it on CR?

A small vocal group of autists. That's who. They are the driving force for the graveyard of failed MMOs. A game doesn't have to be massive to succeed. It just needs to be complete, relatively balanced, and accessible to everyone. That means instancing, for better or worse. You can put them on...

Whatever it takes for people not to have to fight each other over camps or whatever 'rare' shit is important in the game. It's a failure MnM and Pantheon share currently, and one that will sink both of them if they don't figure out a way to avoid it.

There is a very vocal subset of autists that screeches really loudly when people point out that instancing isn't optional if a game wants to succeed in Current_Year. It's not a group large enough to sustain a game, and also not one that sticks around if content isn't coming out hot and fresh on...

Fits with this season then. Isegay Office Worker, Noble Gentlegay, and Roll Over and Lesbian. Androidsex is fine.

Costs and egos. The people who made that dogshit decision are still the ones in charge most of the time.

Ended up doing that teriyaki salmon. Dad had bought a restaurant sized bottle of glaze a couple weeks ago. So I added a big squirt of ginger paste and chopped up a few cloves of garlic to add to it. 2 bags of frozen brussel sprouts that turned into oven roasted sprouts very nicely. Did the home...

The idea is to stop looking for big investor bucks. Have a solid and finalized game plan before you start coding. Get just as many people as needed. Have a leader that can keep people on task and just focus on grinding it out. If the game is good, and brings enough money in, you can expand on...

It just makes or breaks a game.

They are making every decision to never succeed.

Steve was an actual scammer, and the game was a scam.

Without the 27 years of QOL upgrades.

Definitely up my alley.

Man, that sucks. Sorry things never turned around, but glad you got to be there with him at the end.

Yeah, the Joppa and Steve types who add a kajillion things 5-13 years into development will never put out a finished product. The 2 guys and a hope like MnM also won't ever get there. You need a tightly focused plan from the start, and enough specialized devs to get all the pieces covered. Get...

WOW. By blowing up as big as they did they made big corpos expect their corposlop to perform just as well. They went all in on the mega huge budgets instead of focusing on making games that were fun. That era of gaming is finally dying out, so it's possible to see smaller groups make smaller...

Live by the quarter, die by the quarter.

6 kids? Daaaaaaaaaamn.

Only the Dark Men of Odus can guide you towards the light.

5/27 is going to be fucking awesome.

To the bean counters that is 10% less headcount/payroll.

Some people really like 1 ppp (posts per page) living.

Is there a newsgroup that has this sort of stuff these days? Not going to torrent anything when I need internet for work.

Fuck me, I may have to buy the no ads upgrade.

In public.

I pay for CR because they still do the most animes every season. I still dl everything else off subsplease or whatever. If the makers aren't going to get on board with a single site for access, they can get fucked. Make your GF dress up as Fern.

She's a teenager. Don't let her walk all over you, and don't hold it against her if she grows out of it. Hormones, friends, and stupidity are par for the course.

99% are like Pantheon, AoC, and MnM, so that's a fairly low bar.

That's not chocolate.

And a dutch oven?
