He was fired and THEN he sent a resignation letter...BIG DIFFERENCE. It's well documented.

Zep--

You are confusing shutting down the project with firing. And you are generally drunk, so there's that.

Shutting down a project is effectually firing all the contractors on said project. And you generally have your tongue so far up Cleve's ass you can lick his tonsils, so there's that.

Laying people off is not firing for cause. You know this, but your Wernike's is showing.

It's also well documented they were under performing and getting nowhere. You know this, but your brain can't think correctly without oxygen because of huffing Cleve's farts.

OK. I am pretty sure that nobody dedicates more brain share on Cleve and his game than you do. Biggus just posts incessantly in a thread for a game he loathes. You do that -and- code a trainer for it. You are tops.

Probably a spurned lover. But showing true dedication.

If you fanboys stop trying to convince us that Cleve is god and that Grimoire is a good game, then I guess I wouldn't have to post "incessantly" :P

I don't loathe the game, I loathe the cretins who think Cleve walks on water, and try to justify their positions accordingly. I am happy to sit back and enjoy the trainwreck that this is. Still waiting for Calvin to come back and entertain us. He is due for another meltdown soon, though I guess he's still working on those almost 30 November updates that he didn't give us. What a plonker.

Well, I have some good news then. This thread is nothing but you and Zep thread-shitting on a daily basis. I guess your job is done and you can go home now.

BEGIN TRANSMISSION:

Men! I am posting from the future...

It's 10:06 pm, Dec. 15th

I have bad news...

The Grimwah manual wasn't released.

Please continue on with your normal daily activities. Don't bother F5ing all day.

END TRANSMISSION!

Tell you what. When the fanboys stop the Cleve worship, when they stop telling us how great Grimwah is, and when they stop living in a pretend world, I'll stop posting :)
Last time I looked, I mainly respond to posts, not instigate them, much as I am doing here in fact. Hey, I've got an idea, why don't YOU stop posting and then I won't have to reply. :P Easy peasy.

So anyone feel like giving me a tl:dr on this game, what did it end up doing well, and what went wrong? Is it at least better than MMX or Xulima?

Authentically old-school feel, specifically of turn-based blobbers, and even more specifically of Wizardry VII
Vast environment for exploration, with a substantial amount of non-linearity even in the first phase of the game, and extreme non-linearity once you pass the first phase
Many options in character creation and progression (party of 8)
Well-designed dungeons with puzzles that make for fun exploration
Not one but two giant turtles that are rideable

Combat is a tad repetitive and direly in need of rebalancing
Lack of a manual deprived newbies of crucial information
More than six microissues remaining, although these have mostly been resolved through patches

Despite its problems, definite incline

You don't loathe it because you think Grimoire is the greatest game you ever played. You won't stop posting because Cleve and his wonderous game are the only things left you cherish. :hug:

Nup, like I said, I mainly respond to the fanboys who mistakenly think that Grimoire is anything but a bad joke. In fact, it is the greatest joke I have seen in over 20 years :)

Stats... wiki... snigger. Yeah right.

Cleve, i hope all is well in the Vault. Any updates or thoughts you can share in these final days?
of 2017

Indiegogo is offering the possibility of an ICO soon. This may be an good idea for funding the further development of CD-OS as the one and only OS for those in need of an OS after the shtf.

I followed the shit show that was the game around release, so I ask you guys: How is it now? Is it working as intended?

Has anyone finished it yet? Does it offer the promised 600 hours?

As good as you remember, except better! :smug:

Dunno, but it certainly is working.

A plenty of folks.

Does it offer the promised 600 hours?

Depends on your settings and playstyle.

It is pretty much guaranteed you won't finish it in under 100 hours, but six times as much is stretching it.

This is a difficult time of the year for the lonely and suicidal, like ?Biggus?.

I am stong, fit, healthy, live in a beautiful house, in a magic coastal town. I want for nothing. Been retired for years, drink Wild Turkey, play games, grow veges, read, have fun, ride my Kwaka 1000, go to the beach, and generally enjoy life. Kids are coming from OS to visit at xmas, and I will probably go visit one or both of them next year.

Yup, pretty suicidal that life. :)

This thread should be renamed ad hominem. Honestly, talk about pathetic losers.
