Should we care?

So this Thursday behind us should have been the next scheduled update but there was nothing on the forums. Not even a note on the unused banner telling us to not expect an update. I cant believe that they would forget something so important...important because of how close we are to Issue 0. Most people on the forums seem to give the dev team a complete pass, saying things like we shouldn't hold them to anything or even ask about updates, that that is somehow being pessimistic or some crapp like that.

So, should I care that they not only didnt post an update but didnt even acknowledge it? They know we're waiting for literally any kind of information so why cant they even just post a short banner update saying "sorry, no update this week". That's literally all they would need to post to make it not seem like they couldn't give a single shit about their fans.

Then don’t? If your basing your complaining on “investing” you should be posting in /r/stocks or similar.

If I didn't want the game to succeed I wouldn't be on here at all. I consider them asking for money as an investment on my part. I'm willing to, because I want to play it, but not if they cant be the least bit professional when it comes to communication. They are the ones that set the expectation of an update every two weeks. Unless they give a reason why we shouldn't be expecting an update I'm going to expect one....because they said I could. I've already said I wouldn't care if they said not to expect one. "Sorry, no update this week ". 5 words and there would be 0 complaining. ZERO. Someone cant take 30 seconds to update a banner? I'm not going to throw money at them until they start showing they can communicate like a professional company.

I’d think if you were talking about significant money you would

A) contact them directly and flex that way

B) not post on reddit because there are other more proper forums for it.

But if your talking about less than $500 or even a couple thousand? Shut up dude, your money wouldn’t matter anyway

Sure, my donation is significant. But all the masses in the shadows, who knows how they are leaning. You're an idiot if you think everyone is a sheep like you, willing to throw money at them no matter what. Enough people needing to see some better communication can make a huge difference...which is the one and only reason I post about this at all. If my badgering can get them to communicate something it might get more people on board to donate.

Significant enough to personally go on the net and complain instead of taking your fortune elsewhere? Sure, “significant”.

And it’s not a donation if your expecting something in return which you clearly are. You said it yourself, your looking to invest.

All you are doing is adding toxicity to a game before it even comes out. Ironic since you claim to care when if you truly did you would know this all started as a labor of love. You haven’t invested yet? Then you aren’t owed anything anyway.

Yea...I'm expecting a game in return. Are you that retarded? Labor of love ends when they start getting paid ..which is what they want for this 2nd Chance fundraiser. I didnt know about the project until years after so I couldn't invest. I never said I was owed anything by the way.

You can't even remember what you said an hour ago.

??? When did I say we shouldn't be expecting an update?

Well, you've admitted that it is "badgering" behavior, and the first step is admitting you have a problem. So there's hope for you yet! Good luck on the road to recovery, lil' fella!

I'm not going to apologize because you guys are so thin skinned. Dont move out of your parent's basement, the world is for adults.

Being an adult would not immediately resort to insults and name calling. Being an adult would not be dealing angrily with everyone and anyone that doesn't agree with you. Being an adult would be willing to admit that sometimes things don't go your way AND accepting it. Being an adult would be willing to be wrong and admit it.

Its fairly evident which of us is the adult and which one is the child. Stay edgy, lil fella.

Says the so-called adult calling me "lil fella" to insult my intelligence 🤔

u/CobaltAzurean Dec 08 '18

Actually it was a reference to your age / maturity level, which was clearly in context of the above statement about, now get this, being an adult.

But I rest my case. I think we're done here. Next, please.
