Posted June 21, 2016 In all seriousness, what the happened? No blog update for nearly 3 months, the video is nowhere to be seen, seriously questioning what is going on behind the scenes, I've been following since 2014 and the absolute minimal updates is worrying. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But yes its disappointing to not get info when it was promised. Why don't you tweet them and ask for an explanation as we as a community have been patient and deserve it atleast. (hopefully they will respond with a blog update, and maybe the video). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe, it could have been mentioned before the kickstarter but i am not sure about that, but i know kickstarter was when most heard about it. Also @LionKingGamer I am patient and yes people keep asking, but i know me and my friends, and @Kalebninja have been waiting a lot longer than you, soo you can't exactly say be patient when we have been for over a year. + i can wait till release but others/ everyone are not as patient as me/ have different patient thresholds! the magnitude or intensity that must be exceeded for a certain reaction, phenomenon, result, or condition to occur or be manifested.

Posted June 21, 2016 @JamesLuck01 @LionKingGamer I've been through both the forums and bid my support since the start of the Kickstarter too, and if I'm honest even if the game does never happen then I'm still glad the forums did, because I've made some good friends here. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, but also it would be disappointing. I believe in @Paratus and @Motown that they will complete it, otherwise i would not have pledged so much money. I pledged $90 for a friend and $250 for myself.. I know I won't be disappointed because i have faith. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Erm, $90 because my friend but he will pay me back $30 because the rest is for a b'day gift (he was going/wanted to upgrade to $90 pledge but no money so i said i would for him and said pay me back next year.) $250 because why can't i be generous? and it was CAD for kickstarter and i wanted to see it get backed. My other friend has spent more than $400 on "star citizen" But also people on the kickstarter pledged $1000 so i didn't do a lot compared to those dudes. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I myself have pledged $30, and will possibly increase that in the near future. It doesn't matter if the game is unreleased, the game would never be released in the first place without copious amounts of donations. Good on you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

'It doesn't matter if the game is unreleased, the game would never be released in the first place without copious amounts of donations" Are two contradictory statements are they not?

Posted June 22, 2016 I find it reasonable to have doubt and critic since there hasn't been many written updates, not many new pictures and no new videos at all this year. I've counted Twitter, Facebook and this site when I'm saying that they haven't shown more than 6-7 new pictures of rag-dolls, room/scenario settings and faces/hair-prototypes this year. It's naive to protect the silence from the developers. We invest in the game, we care about the game, therefore we should know about the progress of making the game. I'm not sure if I would've actually invested in this game if I discovered this game today and saw on the front page that there only was two updates, with the latest one from march. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I said the game would not ever be released if it was not backed by donators like James, that is not a 'stupid' thing to say. If that did not come across to you as what I said, I'm sorry. But that is what I intended to denote. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How can you say that for sure, the kickstarter bypassed it's funding goals by a lot at the end anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is exactly my point, if there were no people donating, the game would not be possible. Saying that people have wasted money because they have pledged more than others when they don't need to is a silly remark. Even if they have passed their goal, more funding is always a great benefit to a small team like the Identity developers, especially so if it comes in greater amounts. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the game came out in store today and it was made by the same small dev team and it cost $250 dollars, would you buy it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No I wouldn't, I don't have the money to do so. But what does this have to do with what I was saying? I don't think you understand the concept of donations. We're talking about before the game is even released not when it is in stores. Even if it was, receiving a sum of money like that provides the team with many benefits, it is nowhere near close to a waste of money. Just because they have passed their goal on Kickstarter does not warrant the halt of donations, they have just met the goal they set. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you have the money to do so, why not? You have not told me a good reason why you shouldn't support the developers, so I'll await your response. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I never said you shouldn't support the developers I backed the project too just not back them with that absurd amount of money, I think it could be better spent elsewhere Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 25, 2016 (edited) Well, if that's the case, the $15-$30 you likely pledged could be better spent elsewhere, that's a large amount of money to some people. What is the reason you pledged? Correct me if i'm wrong, but it is probably because you want to support the developers; developers which are making a game you hope has promise. That is more than likely the reason for James donating. The only difference is that James undoubtedly has the funds to pledge a greater sum of money. This is not a bad thing, far from it. Sure, I understand your point, but if the game turns out to be what everyone has hoped for, then their money is well spent. Only time will tell. But don't go around saying people have wasted their money. It's their choice to pledge how much they wish. It has nothing to do with you, or me for that matter.
