Really? If that is true, I still don't have much hope for DA III but at least won't make me vomit.Ex-Biowhore Jen Helper...

Perhaps it was an attempt to portray the "Bhaal genes" as a kind of mental retardation? The child of the God of Murder is a dumb murderous oaf - makes sense.
Honestly it sounds like the author to decided the books would be an experiment in writing a story from the perspective of an INT 3 barbaric oaf character.
I guess they are desperate and are trolling to stir up a storm of nerdrage. Which they will then portray as an attack on Hepler for being a woman, and induce white knights to pledge for the game.And she's saying these things in an update on Kickstarter, a platform which is almost by definition aimed towards enthusiasts, people who like games so much they're willing to pay for them years in advance. Does she even see the irony in this? Probably not.
I'm sure the white knights would throw down that much if they had a moderately attractive woman to be their Dulcinea, but the Hamburglar? Not gonna happen.Pessimistic as I am about the state of the world, even I doubt there's $400k+ worth of whiteknight indignation out there.
Not when it comes to processor architectures, which last for a long time. PowerPC is one of the newer architectures, "pretty ancient" is something like MIPS from 1981 or x86 from 1978. We're talking about the base architures here, not individual processors.For some reason I thought PowerPC came out in the 80s rather than 1992, but 21 years ago is still pretty ancient in the computer world. In 1992, the pentium wouldn't come out until a year later and people were still using Windows 3.0.
She's seriously comparing the issue of ownership of your game to...not being able to get past the first boss fight? Even though current games are pretty much retard-proof with regenerating health, objective markers, false dialogue choices that have no effect, etc.It is ironic to me the backlash that this idea has gotten from hardcore gamers, many of whom are also hardcore anti-DRM protestors. Ultimately, we are making the same case: once you spend your hard-earned money to buy a game, you should be able to play it any way you want. Anti-DRM protestors don’t like being told they have to be always on-line and sometimes endure long queues to play the games they own; many other players and potential players don’t like knowing that they could spend $60 on a game only to be told they’re not allowed to play past the first boss fight.
And that is why Lovers Lab exists.Ultimately, we are making the same case: once you spend your hard-earned money to buy a game, you should be able to play it any way you want.

Because you make shitty videogames which I don't want to finish, not because of combat.The videogame industry has a serious problem with non-completion of games. Only between about twenty-five and fifty percent of people who buy a game actually play it to the end.
And that is only first one!
There are 3. 2nd one was written by same author and third by Kashpryn.And that is only first one!
Wait, there are more? Holy fuck, couldn't even bear to finish the first half of the book, it read like some retarded fanfic.
No need to get mad, they won't even get funded, the invisible hand of market is showing a very clear middle finger to this kind of ideas and people.
Just as planned, another piece of shit was kickstopped.No need to get mad, they won't even get funded, the invisible hand of market is showing a very clear middle finger to this kind of ideas and people.
Yep, the project was canceled just an hour ago.
