In the normal economic world everywhere except Kickstarter, the company is obligated to prove to financiers or investors the capital invested/funds loaned are being used for the stated purpose. Banks, for example, have the right to demand proof that a loan granted for the purpose of purchasing a...

Yeah, of course it'd be terrible for them. And a lot of other people too, as it'd be bound to pull in a whole lot more countries than just South Korea. Just as the war in Iraq was terrible too, y'know. Hell, all war is terrible.

A lot of hilarious shit as Kim Jong Un nukes some fishes in the middle of the Pacific and he finds out massive infantry armies don't mean shit in a word of drones; all the while claiming he's achieving massive victories everywhere. It'd be like Comical Ali squared. It'd be terrible and stuff of...

You seem to have a pretty lightweight opinion over what constitutes 'proof'. I dunno. Maybe this rubs me in millions of wrong ways because of the sector I work in. After all, companies that don't disclose *any* financial information to their financiers and stockholders would be the most...

You claim the opposite with just as little proof. Also, I never said the was a scam artist (i.e. appropriating the money illegally), but there are plenty of ways to use that money for other shit than strictly Torment without doing anything illegally (and considering the complete lack of...

People here are hilariously uninformed. Venezuela is ranked #165 (of 174) of the most corrupt countries in the world by Transparency International. It's flanked by countries like Haiti and Equatorial Guinea. Even Zimbabwe and Congo are less corrupt. Imagine that, being more corrupt than those...

So you guys say. There's absolutely no single shred of proof for that, though. I guess we just have to take the word of the brilliant entrepeneur that Fargo is (just ask Interplay). Even if it were a felony (which I doubt), how in the world would anyone - both supporters or Kickstarter -...

Here's some quotes directly from the Fallout Wiki: "I don't enjoy killing, but when done righteously, it's just a chore, like any other." "I want to have my revenge. Against him. Against Caesar. I want to call it my own, to make my anger God's anger. To justify the things I've done." Etc.

Let's hope North Korea doesn't launch their nuclear missiles at Japan or the US - that could be terrible news for random locations in the pacific ocean. They might kill a lot of fish.

Moving this to the gameplay & tech forum.

Isn't Joshua Graham in Honest Hearts still burning with desire for genocide - i.e. slaughtering all the White Legs in Zion? I mean, one of the main points of the DLC is the ability to talk him down from indiscriminatory killing. Funny how the writer of that article considers him a...

That's the way InXile is nowadays, Sandy. Don't act surprised.

Five or six years ago, they should've done a reality show where Berlusconi, Khadaffi, Chavez, Ahmedinejad and Kim Jong Il all shared a house or something. Imagine the crazy, dudes. I would've given BOTH my kidneys for a chance to see that.

If Fargo has money for a limo, he doesn't need Kickstarter money. QED.

I'm looking forward to someone like Bethesda or EA abusing Kickstarter to fund their next game cheaply, just so I can rub this in your face.

First Berlusconi doesn't get re-elected, then Khadaffi gets killed, now Chavez dies? The world is quickly running out of funny politicians. Here's hoping for a long life for Kim Jong-Un, the last and best hope for rulers doing incomprehensibly dumb shit.

Yeah, (lack of) population density is a problem. I'd guess it's mostly due to technical limitations, though. I never played Oblivion longer than five minutes, so I'm not too well aware of the size of cities in it, nor the number of NPC's. New Vegas did do better in that regard, although the...

Well you know, I meant "content" as in "stuff to do". I did point out Skyrim doens't reach the level of F:NV in terms of story or characters (or was that another thread? I'm getting old.).

As I said before: I'm outraged because Kickstarter isn't 'meant' to provide 'free capital' to large companies: it's for starting companies to get their first leg-up, or the funding of innovative projects in general (I guess WLII falls into the second category). InXile GOT their 'kickstart'...

Yes I did, you just choose to misunderstand me and present my case as "you thought you were Kickstarting InXile haha", while that clearly wasn't the case. I've known you long enough to know what you're playing at, and I'm not going to go along with your favorite tactic: misdirecting arguments...
