Sirus Posted September 11, 2004 Posted September 11, 2004 I'm going to "aquire" the game. I don't want LucasArts to pull anymore stunts like this. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Legally, right? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No.
Nartwak Posted September 11, 2004 Posted September 11, 2004 I'm going to "aquire" the game. I don't want LucasArts to pull anymore stunts like this. I'm pretty sure that ultimately this just hurts the retailers.

Topaz Quasar Posted September 11, 2004 Posted September 11, 2004 I see Sirus is eager to get banned from the forums. Hopefully the judge won't be too harsh when he's in juvenile court for pirating games.
Sirus Posted September 11, 2004 Posted September 11, 2004 I'd think they'd have better things to do. Like go after real criminals.
KOTORFanactic Posted September 11, 2004 Posted September 11, 2004 Something tells me this thread is going nicely off topic, and since all people can no longer say anything relevant about this topic, perhaps it should be closed.
The_Prodigal_Knight Posted September 11, 2004 Posted September 11, 2004 Let the devs decide that while we talk.
Topaz Quasar Posted September 11, 2004 Posted September 11, 2004 I'd think they'd have better things to do. Like go after real criminals. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Either way, I don't think the moderators will be too happy about you wanting to "acquire" the game illegally because of a largely childish dispute with LucasArts.
Ivan the Terrible Posted September 11, 2004 Posted September 11, 2004 It'll also hurt LucasArts. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It'll also hurt Obsidian, which is, like it or not, one of the last refuges of CRPGs. I'm pissed as well, but not so pissed that I'm going to repay the months of hard work of the Developers by pirating a copy of their game just to spite their Publisher. I made this half-pony half-monkey monster to please you But I get the feeling that you don't like it What's with all the screaming? You like monkeys, you like ponies Maybe you don't like monsters so much Maybe I used too many monkeys Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?

I do not condone piracy. i won't illegally aqurie a copy of anything, games, dvds, u name it. The release date controversy is LA fault, not Obsidians.

Seriously. Their first PC project is a xbox port, the second is a hand down from a sucky RPG developer. I don't care about obsidian much any more. Support Troika, they're deserving of it.
The_Prodigal_Knight Posted September 11, 2004 Posted September 11, 2004 If Obsidian sucks, why are you here?
Demigod Posted September 11, 2004 Posted September 11, 2004 I would just like an official response Yes I know Its weekend but as they are in crunch time apparently tso I would be surprised if they are not in the office. Being lied to is not something I appreciate. While they may prevaricate that it isn

The_Prodigal_Knight Posted September 11, 2004 Posted September 11, 2004 I sense a dev coming with a closing key!
Ivan the Terrible Posted September 11, 2004 Posted September 11, 2004 I sense a dev coming with a closing key! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I would much prefer that specific posts be cut out instead of the whole thread being closed down. People need to vent, and if they aren't allowed to do so because a few people screwed up the one thread where it's allowed the damage will only worsen.

Demigod Posted September 11, 2004 Posted September 11, 2004 I sense a dev coming with a closing key! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Then please try to keep it on topic and stop spamming? I would also like to know if the downloadable content will be available for the pc. As obsidian have stated it will be avallable at launch for xbox. I assume they will have it done for the US release, unlike bioware. But will they do as bioware did and put the extra stuff in the pc version at ship time?
Demigod Posted September 11, 2004 Posted September 11, 2004 On topic was this a Lucas arts decision or obsidian? I wonder because of the milestone talk etc in the announcement. I can understand why they will be releasing the xbox version btw, it doesn
Adria Teksuni Posted September 11, 2004 Author Posted September 11, 2004 Topic has been pruned. This thread is for the sole purpose of people venting their frustration over the latest release date announcement. If you don't want to read it, then go to a different thread. Obsidian does not condone, nor ever will condone, the illegal receipt of games (i.e. piracy). Thanks to Akari for posting what he did. It is much appreciated. I have to agree with the poster who said if LA knew that the XBox was so much further along than the PC version, in point of fact, to being actually in development first, why did they from the very beginning promise that they would "try for a simultaneous release date"? Very disappointing. And btw, one nitpicky detail, the actual quote is "LOVE of money is the root of all evil." Almost forgot. The K2 fora will be divided in order to prevent spoilers. K2 will most likely have at least one huge twist in like K1, and I will do my darnedest in order to see that the PC and international gamers will NOT have that ruined for them here at Obsidian. Never assume malice when stupidity is to blame.

And btw, one nitpicky detail, the actual quote is "LOVE of money is the root of all evil." <{POST_SNAPBACK}> So you're saying that Obsidian and Lucas Art's are the root of all evil? Wow are you sure you're a mod for Obsidian? Cheers! P.S. Come see the disgruntle mod! Help!!! Help!!! Adria Teksuni is being repressed!
