I guess it's poetry that Spiders goes out the same way Bioware did.
First as a tragedy then as a farce.


Let this be a warning to future developers: stop embracing your overly loud fans that make up a minority of your customers. If someone is making fanart of your game, they are probably insane!

It's suffering being a fan of these games and "sharing" an interest with these freaks. Guess my Vriden Nigerr is going to be a loner. I was looking forward to Fausta. Though Sybille is still a possibility.

Hello everyone! We’d like to take a moment to address something many of you have pointed out. Earlier in development, we mentioned that the game would feature six romance options. As the game evolved, certain directions naturally made more sense than others and that number changed - the final release will include four romance paths.

That said, rest assured, our focus has always been and will always be toward making each relationship with the companions feel impactful, fully fleshed out and meaningful. Even though Fausta and Till are no longer romanceable, they remain vital to the story. You’ll still see plenty of them, be able to explore the complex connections that make them who they are and get to know them. They’ll be essential to your journey with many secrets to uncover about them.

We understand this might be disappointing for some players who were looking forward to other possibilities, but we hope you’ll enjoy discovering all the characters and their story in the game.
They cut the only white woman romance and kept these

No Idea why that artwork of Sybille is so ugly tbh.
Her Ingame model is fine.

I'm expecting larian to coast off of BG3 for 1-2 games then fall into the same spiral.
Owlcat just seems to be generally libtarded, not overly focused on fans imo

Owlcat's insanity has mostly been internal or on behalf of IP owners. As far as I can tell just from a casual observance, they do not seem to take their fans opinions into high account. If they did, there wouldn't be endless bugs every single release that persist for months or longer. They play the usual "we value your feedback" when they want it, but it doesn't feel like a Bioware situation where the writers and leads actively personally engaged with the tumblr lunatics. I feel some people forget that a lot of early developers when forums were still a dominant thing online, it was very common for the developers to cause feedback loops in the company as their most active fans were the jobless women and homosexuals, who could afford to harass them daily. David Gayder was infamous for having fed into this.

The Expanse looks like a normal-person game for the most part.

Spiders is a zombie studio now that Jehanne's gone. The creative decisions being made are no longer hers.

Thanks, they're on my wishlist anyway. I'll buy them once I'm either out of my predicament or desperate enough for anything to quench my misery. :axe:

IDK. I'm fine pirating shows and movies, but I don't pirate books or games (or operating systems but 🐧).

I even once imported original licensed merch from Japan for an anime I liked (I normally don't watch anime but it was an exception) because I hoped to support it so it wouldn't get discontinued. I think it did get discontinued. People here loved the merch though, but they thought it was from a metal band.

And if I don't pay for it, someone else will and they'll corrupt it. How do you expect for good content to be made if the creators don't get paid?

But whoever is left after will see some bloke called male **** addict bought the game before they went woke and will know this is how you make money.

Latest update was about romance. Not very interesting, but if you check the forum thread for the update here you can see that it's almost exclusively women talking about which male character they want to ****. The audience for this game is like 36 women.

Ah **** guys we forgot that making a game for literally zero people results in a negative flow of cash to our studio. Better luck at our next job where we make an UE5 ******** mulatto **** sim that also doesn't sell well for some reason!
I'm just stating the facts.
Question is are you going to gargle the truth or swallow?
