Not even close for Brazil, they got outplayed this time by a big margin. They couldn't bully their way through this game.

Too bad you didn't stop the Croatian genocidal tendencies, but hey I guess you need to pick a side in every conflict.

Evil Serb working in an American company that is owned by Russians. Looks like a start of a thriller book.

Got the job kind off. I'm on a two month paid trial period, bet everyone who gets the job goes through it and from what I gathered almost no one gets kicked out. So good news I guess. The job, for anyone who is wondering, is software testing.

US company owned by Russians. O_o

First day of the interview for a job, American hiring systems are harsh man. Two more days of it and then I will see if I pass.

Wasn't chess improved a bunch of times?

I love those parts, in fact in the last couple of ACs that was what I was most looking forward to when playing the game.

Guess they presumed anyone who came in contact with the ripper would have been dead or on his way to it.

I'm definitely in the middle, as Sensuki said it will all depend on these next few months. But as a hypothetical if what we have now is what we will get in the end, then I would say that it failed in it's goal.

Gaming industries today are so bloated that we are due for another bubble burst.

I agree cheating =/= degenerate gameplay. Also if things remain as they are I intend to cheat the crap out of PoE.

What definition? That's easy, they should see what was fun and if changing some part of it would make it unfun.

I'm saving that for the Spaniards, if we can by some miracle get past them we have a better chance against the US.

So Brazil it is. Well let's hope that this time we don't fall apart at the end.

Ok let's get something clear straight of the bat. First, it's not us that should be grateful, it's OE. This is after all a KSed game, and it's thanks to the fans that they got to make it. Second, being open on how they are making the game is something they stated would happen in their first video on KS. Third, aside from updates which are nice we haven't seen much comments from Josh at all, now this would normally be ok IF he didn't comment so much on other forums and social media sites. We don't have to be privy to the dev discussions to know if something works or not. We know what the end goal is, "a spiritual successor to the IE games" and thus we can comment on what is wrong and why it's not meeting that goal. As for the degenerative gameplay, it most certainly does not deserve praise and respect. As it stand everything that was done to prevent such gameplay, has caused even more of it by being changed. Things obviously don't work and should be tweaked or changed. We would be doing a great disservice to the game, ourselves and OE if we didn't point out the bad aspects of the game.

What genre do you do?

Strange, to me combat and atmosphere are head and shoulders above any IE game, even the soundtrack is up there. Though IWD2 was my first IE game so our impressions may differ there.

I changed money without issues.

Good game against Greece, nice clean win. On to play against Brazil or Argentina. Good shot at winning against them if we keep our late game solid.

That still doesn't explain how you connected having fun in a game with policing one self. I think you got lost in your own words.

I have no idea how you think that anything I said is supporting your argument.

What was stupid about your statement is that you think that the player will police him self to enjoy the game. He will either play the game how he likes it and it will be fun for him, or he will drop it as soon as he realizes that it's boring to him.

Yeah, but you will find that discussions devolve as soon as people start attacking those who have something negative to say about the game. In fact, I bet that if you counted bad post, it would mostly be those people who are defending the game from negative comments.
