Pm Gamereactor interview about modding godus

"And that's what I mean by cycling back round to the PC. I don't think if you really want to make a game like this you can't just make it in your ivory tower. This is not that sort of game. There are many games that you can make like that, but Godus isn't one of them. It's been terrifying, because a lot of the time what the community wants us to do is to react to what they're saying, but we have to focus on one thing. We're only twenty people and if we start you know doing this bit over here and then oh well let's stop doing that and do this bit."



What a load of garbage. He Kickstartered, and released to SEA, a pc-focused game and gave people every expectation of input. We gave feedback and input and became angry that we were being ignored. He put us on the back burner to focus on a mobile version rather than work on what we'd paid for and been promised. How dare him try to spin the negativity as our fault. Every single bit of this negativity is his own fault.



"If we can get the core of Godus right with the PC people on the PC and if we can get the core of Godus right on mobile. Then we could be developing it for years to come. And it could be this incredible journey which we're going on. And we're just twenty artists and coders which are passionate about that and we've got so many crazy ideas that it's fascinating. What we're trying to do is we're trying to nurture more of those ideas to come into the company and I just think as long as Godus is making money, and you've got to have money to survive, and as long as what we're doing is making the game feel better all the time not worse, then we should just carry on doing it."



Great, that's total confirmation that this game will be lucky to last 2 years. This just brings back all that talk about solvency from last week...


"I've been lucky enough to feel this happen before. There was a moment in history where we changed from home computers into consoles, and it feels like a similar sort of time. These consoles, when Sony released the PlayStation especially, before that there was Nintendo and Sega, but they felt like they were very Japanese machines and along came Sony and they had this dinosaur walking across the screen and I remember thinking 'it's all going to change'."

Here's where he shows his true feelings about us.  He thinks us pc gamers are relics.  I think he's convinced himself that mobile is the only viable market.  It's no wonder he just dropped us for mobile after getting his cash.

Somebody should buy him a muzzle. Really, why does he not stop doing this asinine interviews and insulting the people that backed his game? He has PR people, he should really learn to use them.
