Holy shit, they fired the two guys that pitched the project to Paradox and won the contract. Mitsoda also apparently left his wife to bang Cara Ellison, who I imagine has now inherited his job.


Annie (Brian's ex-wife) is fucking crazy. So I don't blame him on that note.

Sad thing is Annie used to post on the RPGCodex and was relatively sane, then she took a big social justice pill circa 2013 and went completely insane.

It's disappointing to know you've preordered in the first place.

I seriously doubt they will be adding anything. Expect cuts, lots of cuts. Presumably this closer guy has been brought in by Paradox to salvage the project and cobble together some sort of saleable product from whatever Hardsuit has managed to produce to this point. Mitsoda and Cluney presumably got the boot because they'd be unlikely to stand by and passively watch the project they came up with be butchered in the name of hitting some arbitrary deadline, especially when that means shipping some half-finished mess of a game. The sad part is that it's probably nothing to do with either of those guys directly. More likely it's just that the scope of the project was far beyond Hardsuit's ability as a developer to deliver on (pretty much as revealed in what few scraps of gameplay they've shown).

A redeemable action, indeed.

"One" gamer's choice affects all gamers ultimately. You are big enough to know by now that change* starts with(in) yourself.

*and by change I mean giving up the infectious bad habit of preordering

That's a question you'll have to answer yourself.

This is why I default to despair rather than excitement whenever I hear about a classic being revived these days.

Even if this particular rumour is false, the reality won't be much better.

Don't remember it having anything tbh. The only SP game that stuck out as being MTX driven was AC:Origins.

They already announced a ton of smallish DLC way back during the initial reveal. They originally said most of it would be free. Maybe Paradox decided to charge for it.

Well Far Cry 5's mtx were purely cosmetics, weren't they? I only played the isodemo and can't say but had 0 issues finishing the game.
Shadow of War on the other hand had loot chest for gear and orc followers, xp boosts and some bundles with those 3. It was much worse. Good thing I didn't mind the Nemesis grind and actually enjoyed PokeOrc battles to never needing to "speed up" with chests or boosts. Took them almost a year to remove all mtx from the game.

Ah, I can't wait for another game to sell 'badly' and not have a story that ends because of a Publisher's need of cutting it in pieces.

Same curse afflicted the original game. Tim Cain said a while back that they cut a lot of content from China Town and had to really rush the ending.

Slightly fixed, because that's some of the worst bullshit thrown around online.

So that means the retards at Paradox assume this game has the same player base as e.g Assasins Creed and shitty mobile games and so forth.. It's not 40+ year olds who absolute hates stuff like that..

they've lost it.
