Yeah but have you noticed who created this thread

Don't like the "CHAD BRIAN FARGO STOLE MY GIRLFRIEND RIPPED ME OFF" attitude, it reeks of beta. You don't see that with Obsidian, where the blame for a bad game is properly assigned to the people who actually made it. For a communication failure like this one, I'd first point the finger at the producer - Brother None.

So you don't think Fargo exercises control over InXile's media presence, including at Codex/Watch? He sure maintains a high profile at events, gives flattering interviews, etc.

They tell spooky stories and it comes to life in the mansion and they get chased around by ghosts and shit and in the end they get the courage to outsmart and catch the ghost and it turns out to be the neighbour who wanted to scare Fargo out so he could purchase that property to expand on his own.

So when did the divorce happened and who got the custody over the children?

Only Betas would blame Fargo. Real Alpha Men blame Brother None.

Fargo made my wallet crippled, I was passing in front of InXile and he was on the street, he said:

Hello, Mr. DeepOcean, I have something to show you...

Fargo shown me a poster, it was written on it: "Torment, a sequel to the best written RPG ever.", he proceeded to tell me how he would make the perfect team to work on the perfect game.

I dunno much what happened afterwards, he hypnotized me with so much buzz words... it was like I was after an Obama rally, with alot of hope but no clue about what the fuck was actually said.

Only later I found my wallet missing.

That is what I earn for trusting people on the street.

Never pass again in front of InXile if you don't want to miss your wallet again, this Fargo is a dangerous professional.

As opposed to Trump who is going to replace Obamacare with something awesome? Good riddance...

Do you ever read any economics textbooks?

Lol, I meantioned this article TWICE, and it explain economics in US perfectly, and what capitalism and freem market is.

And yes, if you think that corporations treat you something more that shit you are wrong, and your book is a shit. Sorry.
The corporations care for your future money as well, that's why they have an incentive not to cheat you in the current period. Delivering the minimally satisfactory product =/= cheating.

But since you refuse to understand this very simple principle, I'll provide you with a thought experiment: Go to a grocery store, and buy a toothpaste. To your surprise it's filled with actual toothpaste and not with canine excrement, even though the latter is much cheaper to produce. Why is that, and why that would be the case even without any regulation? Because if you were betrayed, you'd move to use the competing brand's products. And you'd also tell all your friends what you just experienced.

Now, replace the toothpaste in the above vignette with a crpg KS project.

And children, this is why we ask for refunding.

Zyklon Beekers has already transitioned to Wasteland 3 so he's off the hook.

I am still sore about that one too. I am surprised I didn't remember to cancel beforehand, then again this game has been in development for 3 years? 4 years?

Only that you are gonna get actual toothpaste here. The composition will be different as the amounts of aroma, cellulose and limonene may differ. So we know that we were promised toothpaste and we are gonna get one. But there is that soreness somewhere deep in rectum, caused by neglect and denial, that just doesn't stop even though it cleans teeth and posterior just as well. And this is why we the children ask for refunds.

I won't let you of the hook that easy. You know full well that you are gonna receive a product.

You know I fully agree with you. And that is why I kept the minimum pledge, even if I haven't used the key yet and could have had a full refund. What I didn't like was the fact that Techland's CE was a a lot cheaper and as good as if not better than inXile's own + the silence about the cut stuff.

People get all worked over Toblerone, even if it's the same stuff as before, just 10% less for the same price.

Creative butthurt reference, btw. :)

What Techland CE is cheaper and better than that of inXile? Those fucking polacks how dare they to invest so much in a prestige project. What shit will they do next? Perhaps deliver it on time for the backers. Fuck this fucking polacks for trying and lack of economic understanding.
Toblerone has also lowered the amount of mountains and they have made something economically good (minimal principle: the same result in money with lower cost on material).

Edit: For the retards among us: this was sarcasm!
