morhilane Posted October 7, 2012 Posted October 7, 2012 Holy **** bioware has like 450 thousand likes haha wtf BioWare have been using Facebook for marketing for a while already...and I don't think you can remove a like. Azarhal, Chanter and Keeper of Truth of the Obsidian Order of Eternity.
molarBear Posted October 7, 2012 Posted October 7, 2012 what's the deal behind likes? is it when you like a page maybe your facebook friends also see it? "if everyone is dead then why don't i remember dying?" —a clueless sod to a dustman "if we're all alive then why don't i remember being born?" —the dustman's response
Rosveen Posted October 7, 2012 Posted October 7, 2012 Now I have a reason to use all these fake accounts I've made over the years :D No, just kidding. I already liked Obsidian's page and my friends are clueless about video games, so I won't be much help now, but good luck nonetheless.
diablo169 Posted October 7, 2012 Author Posted October 7, 2012 what's the deal behind likes? is it when you like a page maybe your facebook friends also see it? Essentially yes, and thus word about the project spreads.
LadyCrimson Posted October 7, 2012 Posted October 7, 2012 Would be great if a mod could edit my post to say 20k likes, didnt realise i'd put the wrong amount down. Your wish is my command. “Things are as they are.

diablo169 Posted October 7, 2012 Author Posted October 7, 2012 Thanks LadyCrimson I'm hoping an official post gets made soon as well. Just wanted to let people know.
Labadal Posted October 7, 2012 Posted October 7, 2012 I don't like this whole facebook thing companies does, but I already liked them on facebook anyway.
diablo169 Posted October 8, 2012 Author Posted October 8, 2012 I dont usually bump topics, but I want people to see this.
DocDoomII Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 So... no one? Really? Then please allow me... Do you think Pillars of Eternity doesn't have enough Portraits? Submit your vote in this Poll!
NerdBoner Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 I don't usually bump a thread... But when I do, I do it for Eternity.
IchigoRXC Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Nearly half way to 20k likes. I mean 3k since the beginning of this thread. Not too bad Legendary Weapons Made By You - A post about weapon customisation and creating your own legendary items Magic Spell Customisation - A post about adapting spells to fit your style, making news ones from old $4million+ raised, I think our jobs here are done.
Darth Trethon Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Nearly half way to 20k likes. I mean 3k since the beginning of this thread. Not too bad I did it....still, I wonder if this is actually doable and whether that would still count after the kickstarter ends......
Osvir Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 (edited) Nearly half way to 20k likes. I mean 3k since the beginning of this thread. Not too bad I did it....still, I wonder if this is actually doable and whether that would still count after the kickstarter ends...... I hope so (that it still counts after the Kickstarter ends), "Likes" has nothing to do with the cash flow (more like internet marketing/popularity stuff~ 20k likes will make Obsidian pop up in Google more often if you search for something that might pop up their page. It's a popularity thing *pop pop*). Compare 1000 likes with 10'000 likes. If they both had been at 0 likes, there is a good chance that you wouldn't have liked any of them, or maybe even given the "1000 likes" 1 like. But with 10'000 likes there is a great, psychologically, chance that you will give 1 like to the one with 10'000. It's called group pressure, and there is scientific facts and experiments about it. Anyways, liked ^^ Edited October 8, 2012 by Osvir
NerdBoner Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 the downside to catering to the species known as "Oldius Fagius Codexius" is that they are oft afraid to try new things... fear not brethren, Facebook will not devour you unless you are weak and easily distracted by angry birds and the like.
DocDoomII Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 NerdBoner, I'm just not interested in that kind of social media. But anyhow, shouldn't they use all the social media available? Even G+? Do you think Pillars of Eternity doesn't have enough Portraits? Submit your vote in this Poll!
Amentep Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Yeah, its not that I fear* Facebook so much as I see little point to me joining it just to like Obsidian's facebook (and face it, that's all I'd be doing it for, my family emails me plenty of pictures to not feel deprived of going to their Facebook pages and seeing more**) *I misspelled "fear" twice, feaer then feaf. **Note to relatives - I like getting the pictures, really! But since you know I don't own a camera, you hopefully understand I'm just not a picture person. I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man
diablo169 Posted October 8, 2012 Author Posted October 8, 2012 I'm fairly confident we can do this now, we're at over 11k already. 1
Stun Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 (edited) Too bad, I don't have Facebook. The goal is 20k likes, and as of now the page has 6152 likes. Isn't that asking too much? Nope. If anything, it's too low. Facebook 'likes' spread like a virulent plague. All that's gonna happen here is that they're going to underestimate again, They'll reach 20,000 by tomorrow and then scramble to do another update, promising another level of the dungeon or whatever if we reach 40,000. Holy **** bioware has like 450 thousand likes haha wtf That's remarkably low for a gaming company as big and as non-indie as Bioware. And in the world of facebook as a whole, it's nothing. Justin Bieber has 47 million likes lol Edited October 9, 2012 by Stun
DocDoomII Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 If by tomorrow you mean 10/10/12 than it's quite possible that it gets to 20k. I underestimated it because the first day the page got few likes, bu yesterday it spiked quite a bit. Do you think Pillars of Eternity doesn't have enough Portraits? Submit your vote in this Poll!
