Dumbest Wasteland 2 backer blowout yet?

2 major gripes to InXile on this. And I consider it unethical practice.
This has been a controversy for a while in the devolpment of this game. This actually was a Kickstarter funded game by Brian Fargo and team. By putting it up on Steam, they have not only destroyed the principle of the " Kickstarter / Shareholder " idea. Where I am talking about, we funded the project over a year ago on kickstarter, and we the public are the stockholders. Putting this out here on Steam just threw that entire concept out the window, as its now a money grab.

Point #2, and a big one. The development team, that was FUNDED by kickstarter money, was moved to another project, called Torment. They can spin it whichever way they want, but the people who funded Wasteland 2, just had their developers moved to another game. Yet the people who funded it, get absolutely no credit for the move. A real ♥♥♥♥♥♥ move.

Putting the game up here as early access is a surprise by many. It was thought that only the kickstarters and backers of the project would be involved.

If they were needing money, that would be a different story, but this game hit its 100% mark FAST. They moved their design team to another project before this one was finished. Gave absolutely no credit to the people who backed W2, while they happily used their money to make a SECOND GAME. On top of that, they put an additional kickstarter site up for the second game, Torment.

I love the game, but a REAL ♥♥♥♥♥♥ move from Fargo and company.

Might does not make right, faggots. You can't host a party and then fling shit at people because it's "your party". If you cheat at your own dm you are a pathetic child. Cucumberdude is in the wrong here.

:lol:

user said:
That is kind of bad logic. If the person hosts it, he can do what ever he wants. It's his server. That's like saying if I was building with my legos in my house and one of my friends was playing with me, too, and I just started changing one thing, and my friend starts complaining. I own/made the shit, I can do whatever I want.

admin said:
Well goodbye forever, kiddo. I own/made this shit, so I guess I can do whatever I want and I really want to ban you.

:lol: :lol:

I remember RPS gave Fallout New Vegas a good raping and it is one of the reasons I don't trust them as a reputable gaming website.
I had to check who wrote the review. It's dude named Quinton Smith. I'm not sure if he's still with them.

Not sure about the towelheads, but the media (which would bring it to their attention for purely informative purposes, of course) sure isn't.
The media talks about everything. I saw that story about the ten-year game of Civ 2 appear on news sites following the week it was posted. Even if you play the games there's not really anything particularly interesting about this except on a technical level, taking the things that naturally occur in the game and seeing how they might round each other out if you keep playing well after everything is at the end of the tech tree. But sites were managing to spin it into a kind of "imagine if this happened in the future for realsies, spooky" story. Just to fill up those sensationalist columns they always have on the side.

The "Diversity Hub" should be a small, dark room, where anyone who enters is immediately restrained and reamed up the ass by big-cocked black trannies. Either the patron will enjoy it, in which case it is an enriching and diversifying experience, or they won't, in which case it's an educating experience about what unprivilgeged groups in America go through every day.

And that's why you never give in to those people. Just not fucking ever. It doesn't mean if you feel sorry, if you say sorry, if you're making concessions, if you're trying to actually listen to them, if you're trying to coexist peacefully - it just doesn't matter. The only thing that is fucking important is them being the suffering victim and you being the cruel oppressor, and whatever you do, you're already branded as a despicable subhuman being and that won't change. So why bother? If you're branded as some kind of fascist, you might as well enjoy being one - if I were them (meaning if they had balls), I'd build a Dickwolves Hub instead. Because fuck it sideways.
