KickStarter Underworld Ascendant is a disaster

[Katana1000S]

Efe is a shill and a troll,
but mostly a troll

 

[MasterLobar]

He's 70 years old or smth cut him some slack

He is 64.

When i first came to this thread i thought lobar was on the road to becoming new celerity...
Until katana1000s made a surprise breakthrough and went full celerity. Now lobar looks very calm and collected in comparison.

So much feels in here.

Just wanted to pop in and say.. when this game was first announced and they showed a few Unity Prototypes.. I immediately called out how this game is gonna be shit.

Infinitron was quick to lambaste me and shill for this game..

> Muh New Engine
> Muh Experienced Old School Devs
> Muh "Have Faith" arguments

Ok good talk.

Wait. Infinitron shilling for a game? I don't believe in that.

From Discord:

Hi guys, I had some chats with Fangamer this week. They gave me a rough estimate of Feb/March for the delivery timing, which factors in the manufacturing and production they still need to do for some of the rewards like the boxes and media (we've already done the figurines as you guys have seen). I'm pushing not only to move up that timeline in general but also to get something more granular as well so we can give you updates along the way. Will keep you all posted.

Wait, what? Now it's March? I thought the last estimate was summer. I thought everything was done and just about to ship out. I mean, not that I CARE, I don't even want that crap, it's just amazing how they got the date wrong by about six months again.

I'm glad they had some chats with Faggamer.

Show me a quote or shut your cunt mouth, edgeling. While you search my post history, think on the energy you are dumping into your posturing and how it doesn't fill your void.

There is nothing so weak as casting aspersions after the fact.

"Show me my quote from a year+ ago or don't talk!"

"Don't search my quotes otherwise you are a loser wasting their time!"

Fixed your low effort response. Every time you figure to engage me, it doesn't go your way. Learn.

Isn't it fascinating how this thread is far more entertaining than the actual game? How revealing is that?

True, everyone is fascinated by a train wreck and few will argue against that, when you look at the first post here, the first few posts, it was potentially good news, a good successor to two of the best games of all time, some original people on board too ... what could possibly go wrong?

Then we noticed they were just playing with themselves, doing nothing for a good year or so wasting time, then the lies, the change of direction and panic as they realized a release date was looming up.

The turn on the official forum where the people like me and others who started with criticism as we saw where things were going were one by one run of the forum and then banned, it was sickening to see the usual shill fan boys who somehow latch on to a new game project grovel and act like braindead lemmings, some who to this day have not played a single minute of the game but supported it to the hilt .... I can never understand that sort of behaviour, it soon became a circle jerk forum, we have shill's on here too (like Efe) but nothing like it was over there.

Yes it speaks volumes that this actual thread is 1000 times more entertaining than the released and patched up game, this is free as well, so far more value, wish it were not so and the game was good, but its not, its dire, its shit, its boring and dull ... and a lot more negative stuff too, it has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

 

[Efe]

don't worry fellow UA lover.
There is one last card to fall back on in face of all adversity...

Spoiler

Mods will fix it.

You must be a backer. First burn eh?

Looks rough lol

 

[Katana1000S]

No I never backed it thankfully, bought it on steam when it came out (already on a discount) in the vain hope it might have been patched properly, of course it never was.

I'm not sure if Efe is trolling again with Mod talk? But its beyond modding IMHO, you can't put lipstick on a pig, you can't polish a turd ETC ... its just a disaster.

 

[Silentstorm]

I mean, maybe with a lot of mods, and more mods, and some other mods on top of that you can get a decent game, but we are talking about mods that completely overhaul the game into something completely different, to a point where the modders would have been better off just making their own game.

 

[Efe]

so you are saying it can be saved????

 

[Katana1000S]

Yes Silentstorm, those are my thoughts, it needs to be rebuilt from scratch, throw everything away and start again, even a better engine and at that point it's no longer a modded game but a new game and what it should have been from the beginning.

What we have in my honest opinion is not salvageable enough to make a decent RPG worthy of the original games ... no matter how many mods are thrown at it.

The whole tagged on "Action RPG" moniker they called it when they moved the goalposts is laughable, wall running and parkour, the cartoon look, FFS, this shite was suggested by the shills (Sandro was one I think, Sandra? Maybe) on their forum who proudly proclaim they have never played it ... just beggars belief

Actually, there is an idea, it wouldn't take much to turn it in to a comedy game, a sort of Bloopers Reel that was offered in Thief Gold where all the early build fuck ups were shown, that was kinda fun, that's the only way I can see this grim mess being salvaged.

I like the whole "nimble approach to development to ferret out the best innovations" which judging from Underworld game, means cutting lots and lots of corners

Sometimes I feel like this thread is only still going on because you guys haven't played the game.

It's like missing a funeral and therefore lacking a sense of closure.
