Support NeoGAF

[winjer]

Probably for people to make fun of the game.

It's like when people stop to look at a major car crash.

 

[John Bilbo]

The first zero concurrent players day could be coming next week.

 

[Emedan]

This game was tailor made for the purple crowd and the OT is already buried on page 2.

Are you listening game devs? These people do not show up for your games.

Cause it's just virtue signaling, they too want to play actual good games.

 

[Germuso]

At least the time making this game they are far away from kids

 

[Unknown Soldier]

 

[Gonzito]

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

Why do all these devs aspire to be Dustborn? Still, in 2026? How many massive failures have they witnessed? And they still go "yup, we want to end like that".

Make games people want to play. And with people, I mean those with money who buy games.

Dustborn got a significant chunk of funding from grants from the EU and the Norwegian government IIRC. I wouldn't be surprised if 1348 is something similar.

Yes

 

[RCX]

Thats rough, even the AI writing for The Gamer didnt like it

I take it this game has a massive OT over at Reeetard seeing as this is right up there street, no doubt all the allies bought the game to show support... /s

 

[Von Hugh]

Yes

1. Make a game about an autistic lesbian black Asian with one arm
2. Propose this to some fund
3. Lean heavily on the autistic lesbian Black Asian with one arm aspect in marketing despite it not affecting the gameplay in any meaningful way
4. They can't refuse the proposal because that would make them look misogynistic, ableist, racist, homophobic and who knows what else
5. ???
6. Profit

 

[Angry_Megalodon]

I knew it.

This was a grift all along, they didn't mean to make an actual videogame. Fuck these parasytes. They deserve to be bullied to oblivion.

 

[Gonzito]

And all these clowns saying they will buy ten copies to own the Chuds.

Where are them copies? Lol

 

[NeoIkaruGAF]

Yes

To be fair, when the Italian government gives you money for a change, you take it. It's not like they actually expect you to do something good with it. After all, they never do with all the money they suck out of their citizens - and of Euro funds.

 

[MudoSkills]

In 6 months time, someone will make a thread somewhere saying how excellent this actually is, and the modern audience will say 'wow, I didn't realise this had already come out'.

It's not a bad business model. Why take a risk trying to make something the market actually wants, when instead you can leech off of public funding?

Doubt it. All the reviews on Steam are like "I really wanted to like this game but it just sucks"

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

Italians want you gay so you buy their gay looking shoes still even though you work from home.

 

[Sohurmk833]

Yes

It's no secret that the radical leftist propaganda push in media the last 10+ years is financed by governments and investment companies like Blackrock.

It's not something that ist happening organically nor is it actually paid for by consumers.

It's a coordinated attack on western civilization carried out by powerful international groups and individuals. Probably not too far away from those that run certain amusement islands.

Five years from now: "You know, compared to Mario Kart Universe, 1348 did have enough lesbians after all".

Remember this?

GymWolf is this true?

They're all like this my friend. The developers for turds like this, Echoes of the End, Relooted, Dustborn, Unknown 9, Concord, etc are all worthless bottom feeders that have no business being in this industry. They're only here because the mother leeches known as Anita Sarkeesian, Zoe Quinn, and the subsequent queer freaks paved the way for these dipshits.

Purging the industry of their ilk is imo, no different than getting rid of cockroaches invading an apartment, taking medications to rid the body of tapeworms, or firing a group of employees at a restaurant who intentionally drops or spits on the food before handing it to customers. They need to be relegated to being janitors somewhere, not infesting entertainment industries.

Janitors are underratingly important, so I would not trust these people being janitors.

What they should be relegated to is breaking big rocks into small rocks.

Leftism, more than anything else, is a spiteful war against beauty.

Whats so bad about Echoes of the End? I just looked it up and it actually looks pretty good, im tempted to buy it.

 

[GymWolf]

Yes

Lol so i indirectly payed for this shit?

 

[GymWolf]

GymWolf is this true?

I have huge feet, i would not be able to buy gay shoes for delicate flowers even if i wanted to

Genetics failed me and kept me in the straight way.

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

[JayK47]

Looks so bad I sort of want to play it out of curiosity. Once it is free on Epic of course.

 

[Angry_Megalodon]

Lol so i indirectly payed for this shit?

One of the most infuriating things a citizen of the UE can do is to check out the grants given to "culture" by every public administration.

The same can be said about most grants but the "cultural" ones are straight up robbery, they don't even pretend.

 

[Saber]

Lol so i indirectly payed for this shit?

Sorry for you bud. I would be pissed.

 

[uncreativename]

lol, it's too bad because some of the art's actually quite nice, and we need someone else to step up to the plate to make fully historical medieval games now it sounds like Kingdom Come Deliverance director is leaving games. Seems like on Ex Voto the environmental, concept, clothing and marketing art people were the only ones on the team with any talent, though.

 

[Rocco Schiavone]

What a mess. Nobody wants to play an ugly lesbian?? I'm shocked.

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

250,000 allies showed their support by wishlisting it. But I guess they didn't care enough to actually buy it and play it.

 

[uncreativename]

That said, if I'm remembering from my Catholic background correctly, isn't the halo reserved for saints and the divine? Am I remembering that right, Gonzito ?

 

[Kikorin]

Yes

In Italy tax credit is a well known way to stole money. Is a true problem already put under the light by huge YouTubers with millions of views.

The last scandal has been this shitty animation movie called Papmusic, with a 4.3€ millions of budget (1.5€ millions in tax credit) and so bad that did less than 10.000€ at box-office.

And the sequel is already funded with 5.5€ millions of budget (2€ millions in tax credit).

But there are thousand more movies that receive huge finance in tax credit and never even release.

 

[Gonzito]

I am not a Catholic, I am a Christian. I worship Jesus not saints so I dont know really

 

[uncreativename]

Ah ok. Sorry for assuming.

 

[Signalis]

 

[thief183]

Just realized the devs are Italians, now I want my tax money back!!

 

[laynelane]

About that wishlist number...



I wouldn't put it past devs like these to lie to save face.

 

[laynelane]

Asmongold played it and put up a video if anyone is interested.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

For you guys worried about gaming employee job security, dont worry.

I'm sure Sedleo studio based in Italy, and the publisher Dear Villagers based in France are on their next government grift for funding. They'll be back to making good money while making crap games in no time.

 

[Ozzie666]

Suddenly Star Wars Outlaws, Foresaken and Uknown 9 don't look so bad. Amazing.

 

[StueyDuck]

Remember this?

Now look, im not an artist...

But if one day I did create entertainment/art. The last thing id fucking support or want attached to my creation is weird pedo creeps online bastardizing my works with their "fanart" and jacking it and making weird furry shit and whatever fucked up fetish these degenerates have.

Like I thought being a visionary was about having control and vision for your creation, ensuring your art expresses exactly what you want to express.

A Neil Breen piece is infinitely more interesting than any slop shit remake Disney farts out

 

[KanKamAndNob]

I also love the excuses they always give when their autosurfed turds fail:

• "It's the weekday"
• "People are working"
• "HaTe CaMpAiGn"
• MUH CONSOLES/GAMEPASS

These asshats are incapable of just saying 'yes the game failed because my lazy ass can't be bothered to do the bare minimum and support these titles'. These wokesters know these games and the devs who shit them out are completely worthless and don't want to waste their money on them.

[uncreativename]

The trailer for that has some sort of a dragon at the end lol. I think it looks good, and I'm looking forward to playing it, but it's not gonna be a fully historical game .

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Edit: Already posted by Unknown Soldier in post #158.

Yes

Yup. Another grift bites the dust. That's ok, they'll apply for the next one. Govs always have bottomless pockets.
