Oh hey, that other totally playable game has an interesting tidbit in their recent update:

Blog - Community - Chronicles of Elyria

A dynamic MMORPG where your deeds become your living legacy

"I need to get a mesh of spatial partitioning services working together, distributed across multiple processes, to do that. For that, I first need to finish the ServiceHost and put a new server networking & message layer in place. Ideally, these will also be demonstrated next month, with the visualizer showing support for entities and spatial partitions spread across multiple processes."

Is the guy subscribed to the CIG SC monthly updates newsletter?
Or did they subcontracted the same Generative AI Bot?

Or, in 2012 you pay a thousand pounds for a concept art of a motorbike with a promise it will be delivered at some point as your money fill contribute to the development of a new, advanced motorbike factory and theme park to ride the bike in.

In order for things not to get stale, you are promised delivery would happen around 2015.

In 2023, the theme park is 1/100 of the promised size while being broken to the point of its elevator killing its guests on a regular basis. The factory, however, has managed to deliver many other motorbike concepts in the meantime, raking in huge amounts of money. It is expanding like a real estate bubble, people are cheering and buying motorbike packs for tens of thousands of pounds. The family owning the factory earns millions per year, enjoying their dream of affluence and mingling with movie stars starring in motorbike ads that presumably are part of the elaborate lore of the world of Motorbike Rider.

Your motorbike is still nothing more than concept art, though.

Sounds just like Harley Davidson

I bought one bike from a dealership back in 1998...and they've sent me emails full of jpegs every month since then trying to sell me another one

You mean they send you the JPG upfront and then ask you to pay?

Sounds like some sort of scam to me, I mean who sends the goods out then asks for payment?

Maybe we can invent the invoice here! Never been done before!

One thing I learned about Harley Davidson pretty quickly is that apart from a lifetime membership to HOG (Harley Owners Group), all you get by the way of freebies for buying a brand new bike is a rubber keyring...then they expect you pay $60 for a $10 T-shirt.

When asked by the lovely sales lady at the dealership if I'd be interested in some exclusive Harley Davidson men's perfume...I replied that the indelible smell of engine oil, petrol and WD-40 that has permeated my skin and 20 year old Wrangler jeans and T-shirt from decades of riding and fixing motorbikes would do just fine...

Men's cologne on a motorbike...now let me think... Maybe if they invented a solution that stops dead flies sticking to your face?..

I had to make do with smelling like blueberries - Mrs Asp’s hairspray to attach grips and smooth out the seat vinyl

I want a blueberry scented Idris.

Oh for xsake, "cologne" is just the name - and I reject any notion that we in this region have any affiliation to cover us in berry scents. Icecream and cake - OK. Berry smell - I dunno, man.

They've considered it

CIG actually ducked throwing April Fool's fuel onto the tire fire then.

Shame. Here's 2019's

To be fair, Harley actually will sell you the whole motorcycle, and it will look like the motorcycle you were promised, it will even start and run down the road. The bells and whistles and farkles will all work. You will just overpay for it.

Pretty fitting

The game is ever evolving...

 

[Dooguk]

My blocked user filter hasn't trigged for a couple of weeks. Does that mean we won?

 

[Skizomeuh]

Fret not, they'll come back, in a known form or another. It's one of the few displays of consistency in this mess, with bugs, lies, funding tracker raising and crunches.
