I miss Marvel Heroes like crazy. Still one of my favorite games.

3 responses and 140º heat. 🤔

I just submitted a story about a dev calling out journos for writing hit pieces on other competing games. It certainly puts all the negative press about certain games into perspective.

NoDamage127d ago

Journos are the problem in the industry right now. People might make inflammatory comments but that's always been the case in the internet type of discourse. Journos fan the flames and most of the times they start the fire.

For the record, I know it's pinned because it's videogamer. But why are we pinning their sub par content

thorstein127d ago (Edited 127d ago )

They're both (N4G and VideoGamer) owned by BGFG.

Christopher127d ago

BGFG owns both N4G and video gamer. The owners want to promote content. At least it's an interview and not something else. It was supposed to unpin after 2 hours, but something went wrong. I manually unpinned it.

My man, you’re too emotionally invested to a website. Take a step back and just enjoy the content you like, avoid the content you don’t. If you don’t fit within a community, just try another until your views align.

Too bad Disney won't allow it.

Why campaign is set to "Flexible goal"? Like "We desperately need $450 000, but hey, we'll settle for any amount of money you'll give to us. And we won't have to do a damn thing.".

They say in Indiegogo campaign: "To achieve our plan, we are currently seeking a minimum of $450k – $900k". MINIMUM of $450k, so why "flexible"?
Next, they say that currently, "creditors claims totaling at $900K" and "The closer our offer is to those claims, the greater our chances of success". A chance costs $450 000.
They're also saying that "One downside is that Gazillion has spent millions to license the use of characters and story lines over the years", where will they get millions for a license? Another campaign? Aggressive microtransactions? Oh, right, "Unless millions are raised to fund this campaign, the odds of this option being successful are very limited."

Even their Paragon university website has "Coming Soon" on it and "Elder mage" have only one "news" and copy-pasted content from Indiegogo campaign. Sounds like a scam to me.

These were all my feelings as well. The whole thing reeks of ripoff and I'm generally a pretty forgiving guy when it comes to crowdfunding campaigns.
