Why do game developers feel the need to take group photos all of the time?

I am not mad at it. In some cases that's all you need to see to disregard any of their products altogether.

Don't look at a gift horse in the mouth. Group photos of the development team are one of the best ways to determine how pozzed a game will be.

Agree, in this case I was mildly interested until I saw the group picture. Between Mila Kunis on the right, the three crones in the middle and some reddit-antifa soytypes scattered around, this is a clear pass. Give me a game made by actual men.

@1998 I feel like I've pooped on your threads multiple times now and feel kind of bad for it.

Nah, don't have high hopes for that game anyway. Loved Naheulbeuk, but this one looks like some sort of Mimimi regression.

The three crones look like three stages of Ayn Rand.

It was supposed to be released tomorrow, but now it's being delayed by another 2 months.

Always weird why they wait so long to push the release date back. There is no way they didn't already know 1-2-3 weeks ago that they won't make it. The closed beta they are referencing here also ended in Dec.

Another one to add here: viewtopic.php?t=318-chronicling-the-ina ... ideo-games

Kinda weird how almost all of these notices look identical, even down to similar fonts, backgrounds, and paragraph style.

Demo was nice, thankfully every soldier can be fully edited to remove wymmin from ranks if you want. Too bad they delayed the game, guess i'll just play something else.

Nothing of importance can be done in 2 months with regards to gamedev, 2 months delay just means "holy fuck this is awful we need to triage the worst bugs ASAP".

Sad to see they that they already gave up, this is their latest update:

Crown Wars | Factions Overview


Image

The Kingdom stands divided, with numerous factions vying for supremacy. To emerge victorious, one must remain vigilant, understanding every adversary's motives, while never overlooking the presence of the Order. Amidst the chaos, they lurk as the greatest threat, ready to exploit the discord for their own gain.

Today, yes. But reminder that Brood War was made in 8 months.
