$700 for a convention ticket = this is cult pricing territory. Comparisons could be drawn from Scientology, Flat Earthers, and other grift or pyramidal schemes. It's more than double from Blizzcon and at least Blizzard have released games.
PLURAL!games.
What's with the spelling of Equipment?

As far as I know he did manage, but all kinds of forewarnings were all ready in air....like debacle about Strike Commander, it was late, needed supermachine to run, and was over the budget....Even when the muppet Roberts was part of successful game development studios, he still didn't manage to produce any games...what makes you think this time will be any different?
The illusion and trappings of success is what matters to Roberts, not the reality of being anything other than![]()
Superbowl: an annual sporting event for more than 55 years, with attendances of 70 thousand and live viewerships of 115 million people.you should see how much i sold my super bowl tickets for this year. lol
I'd imagine that what was in the kickstarter is still the rough roadmap, if we reach the end or not is anyone's guess.I don't feel ED was built around having interior. It'd been a long shot to make it work after initial release. Compare SF - you start with legs and so you get ship interiors. You just don't simply add such a thing to a game, you design such stuff from the ground.
So whenever they ask for interiors in ED, that's asking the near impossible.

CitizenCon: an annual event for multiple games in development hell, with comparatively tiny attendances and viewerships.
Is that text on the "Play now"/"purchase" checkout?
Not sure if it's a legal "get out of jail" for developers to slap "oh it's alpha/early access so everything is fine" on low quality software they expect people to pay full price (and in this case, well above full price) as "Alpha" is not a universally understood term and "early access" implies "on time access" and that there will be some kind of release, which there is no intention of.
Speaking of which, who wore it best?

E3 tickets back when it was good, and adjusting for inflation, were like superbowl tickets today. And that was certainly an event full of development hell and scams. As it grew into a bigger event the scalping is probably part of what killed it as it'd have been hard to justify the costs of attending as a company when all the biz people you wanted to schmooze with were selling their tickets to gamers.Superbowl: an annual sporting event for more than 55 years, with attendances of 70 thousand and live viewerships of 115 million people.

Tower Unite has been in early access for about 10 years now. Game will be dead before devs ever make an official release. I'm pretty sure they don't intent to ever make an official release.
Indeed and I'm sure there are many developers that use it completely innocently, however the founders of the Fyre festival didn't think they were guilty of fraud and all the advertising was just "misleading". It only takes one high profile case to highlight the problem, hopefully some concrete guidelines about the use of terms like "alpha" and "early access" that must indicate a planned release date and subsequent testing phases etc otherwise in 10 years I see no reason why every game won't simply slap "Alpha" on some nice concept ideas without basic due diligence and go straight to selling high priced assets like CIG & never have to worry about being accountable of even providing a working product.
