Hmm, a new Steam forum for a 22Cans game, seemingly without mods this time... This can only go well for 22Cans   |

Wow, they have the audacity to actually try to release this on pc? Whoa boy, time to dust off the old threads and see where everyone's been since the last fiasco.
Fyi, I'm in Mobile, AL. I finally made it. Family's here. Looking at almost 10 months now. Oh, how time flies.
Posting with a smart phone is new too. How things keep changing...

Well, there was talk ages back about me moving. It took almost a year but I finally was offered the job. I hired as a Java developer and sort of fell into a weird amalgam of Java and AngularJS for a web app. Still, it's outside automated testing, which is what I've been trying to get away from for a decade...

Key question - $15 or $15 plus micro transactions? Because there is a big difference between those two states.
Molyneux added, “The gameplay has been developed to be far more strategic. For example, players will now have to balance what they carry in their packs against how fast and far they can travel. Bigger items are heavier and slow you down, smaller items are lighter, so you can travel faster.”
When I read this, I don't hear "strategy", what I hear is "here is this shitty impediment we've added to the game to make you want to buy our in game currency."
Also 8 million downloads seems very low for an internationally released mobile game.
Sometimes I feel bad shitting on Molynuex but then I remember a few things.
(1) I bought GODUS because I believed in him
(2) He isn't developing a PC game, just recycling mobile junk to get cash
(3) It's not like the game was successful on mobile
(4) He still hasn't finished GODUS and I believe rewards are stil outstanding
(5) And I'm just assuming he hasn't finished this game on mobile either.

The forum on Steam is precious. XD
Oh dang, Earl. So you are in Mobile now? Cool.
Web app... hmm. I might have an idea what company you're working with. RSQ?

The workplace is great. I like what I'm doing. Wish I was making more. The rest of the family moved down here in December. We found a place in Grand Bay and the wife drove across country to bring our horses. We sort of miscalculated our finances and ended up losing her truck after the move. Now, we're getting back on our feet and enjoying being so close to the ocean. My wife's just gotten a job at Tractor Supply, so she's staying busy. |
