Decline Mighty No. 9 - It's better than nothing.

[Avellion]

Demo is out for backers, and the visuals is why I prefer sprite based graphics for 2D games.

 

[set]

It lacks the same charm, but a those conveyor belt sections looked a little tricky, at least.

 

[Caim]

Beck's movements are swaying as fuck, the points system seems rather out of place, the temporary bonuses you sometimes get are a bit confusing and it's not immediately clear what they do upon picking up, health drops seem to be quite rare and I'm still trying to figure out how you get certain percentages of points from the pickups enemies leave behind.

#GamerGate

Dina the sjw at work again. Banning people for even mentioning GamerGate.

It's sad that the sjw's are infiltrating the japanese market.

@MightyNo9... wait, what? I'm blocked from following a project I pledged $300 to because I support #Gamergate? Gneiss

 

[LeStryfe79]

Horrendous! I wouldn't have backed this project had I known this would have happened.

 

[Haba]

Complain about it on the backer forums, get the dumb cunt sacked.

 

[Ranselknulf]

They won't sack her, she's the girlfriend of the project leader.

Your only option is to request a refund and hope they give it back to you.

 

[Elfberserker]

Absolutely

Does anyone knows what kind of butthurt this has caused in actual backers forum? Surely there must be somekind of reaction.

 

[Haba]

 

[Phage]

Everyone who backed this deserves this unending shit-circus. Even slightly reading between the lines would give away that Inafune is a hack.

On another note I finally thought of a title change.

In recent news:

Comcast asked for 200K dollars to fund voice acting (both Japanese and English) as a post-Kickstarter stretch goal. They barely made it to 100K, so they decided to cut the requested amount in half and let backers decide which language will be used. After 20K votes from backers English won by a difference of less than 1K votes. I imagine that small margin in the results means they let down almost half of the active community, which is always fun.

Now they're asking for 190K dollars for another stretch goal that much be reached in the next two months. A "potential DLC" they will release a few months after launch that backers will get for free. I imagine it counts as free unless they pledged for this goal. The DLC will feature a new level with a secret boss, Mighty No. Zero 0 AKA Ray, the "vampire-robot that survives by feeding off of other robots".



Also, they sure are casual about guilt-tripping potential pledgers:
"From here on out, it’s all up to our slacker backers: will we sell enough games and rewards to “catch some Ray(s),” or will it be “a shame about Ray”?"

$200,000 for voice acting.

What a laugh riot.

Original indeed

 

[Ranselknulf]

Official response to the controversy.

 

[Tehdagah]

"Creator Keiji Inafune clears up any confusion caused by newly hired community moderate Dina, who plans on turning the game into an education title about brainwashing young men into being subservient to women."

This is what feminists want, though.

Lol.

Actually he reminds me of Bass from MMBN had the cape and took the powers of the final bosses using the copy power megaman had in the original series.

Mighty No. 9 has been Deep Silvered: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mightyno9/mighty-no-9/posts/1213603

Big News for Mighty No. 9!!

Big news, Mighties,

OK Beckers -- we’ve been working on something big for awhile now, and finally, today, we can let the cat out of the bag (this news will be everywhere soon, but we’re telling you first!):Comcept is teaming up with publisher Deep Silver to release Mighty No. 9 this September!!

Why are we so excited about this? Why should you even care?? Wait, is that a DELAY on the release date?!??11

First of all, yes, it is a delay from our original Spring estimate (which, from reading the comments lately, might not come as a surprise to many of you, given we’re in late April already...) But before you despair, please, hear us out first! The reason for the delay, and the reason we are so excited about this new partnership in the first place, is all the cool stuff it will allow us to add to the game (content that all Backers will get absolutely FREE): Added Japanese (yes!) and French voiceovers (in addition to English), FREE for all backers! Extra subtitle languages (Spanish! French! Italian! German! Russian! Polish! Brazilian Portuguese!) FREE for all backers! And best of all: the entire Ray DLC set -- an entire extra level and boss (and playable character) -- FREE for ALL backers!

And that’s just the big bullet points -- this deal also allows us more time and resources for testing, polish, and the creation of physical retail versions (on some systems), and -- very importantly -- won’t affect absolutely any of our Kickstarter plans or rewards. In short, it will make for an even Mightier No. 9, for backers, for us, and for all our fans, worldwide!

We know this is a lot to take in all at once, and we know anytime a Kickstarter ends up with an outside partner some people will be skeptical, so we’ve prepared a short FAQ that goes into a bit more detail about the hows and whys. See if it answers any questions or concerns you have, and if it doesn’t, let us know!

inb4 bad translations, delayed physical edition shipments

Mighty No. 9 has been Deep Silvered

Mighty No. 2 confirmed, then.

 

[set]

Seems like a tactical delay. Like, they knew they needed to delay and had to spin doctor it.

 

[Whisky]

Ah ha ha ha! How does Deep Silver keep getting contracts? They can't do anything right.

I still haven't gotten my WL2 physical rewards.

Say what you will about Paradox/Obsidian, they got my rewards to me days after release.

 

[udm]

I still haven't gotten my WL2 physical rewards.

Mine too. Fucking Deep Silver
