That's actually WHY they paid in

Thanks, I appreciate the clarification. The DRM thing makes sense as far as "why it's being done this way" goes, I figured it probably wasn't the designers' choice
Oh my god, this project started out with the guy in charge first hiring (well, "hiring") a bunch of people and then asking them "so who wants to work on what?" Cmon man
Ah, so THIS is that "cognitive offloading" I've heard so much about
It sucks but a lot of this hobby historically is "hey kids, don't you wanna contribute to a COOL PROJECT?" in a way which is functionally predatory. Gadda is 100% right, you shouldn't be willing to do work for free, and the moment money gets involved solid contracts need to be in place
Wow cool "own," did chatgpt write it for you?
The people who talk about this stuff like "yes some schoolkids were brutally killed, BUT we Toppled The Regime, and you have to admit this is an upside" are, not to put too fine a point on it, unfit to be a part of human society

As the Second Committee collapsed, it splintered into independent bodies. Some attempted to brutally reinstitute the old order while others embraced the chaos, becoming violent bandit armies. Accounts differ on which were the greater misfortune to face.
Preview, keep an eye out.
If I was on the hook for blowing up a $400,000 project, leaving everyone who pledged without any way to get refunds, as well as blowing up my company's entire ongoing relationship with a major client, I would maybe consider simply shutting the fuck up for a while. Not John Taylor of Geekify, though
This guy is STILL trying to post through it
Particulars about John Taylor of Geekify aside, this hobby is largely built on exploitation of labor. A friend of mine (now sadly passed) used to do layout for various small press/indie RPGs and just about every one of them did some variation of "oh we'll pay you once the game sells enough"
It's name is Hurl Into the Duat, Fourth Gate
I will never stop posting
This Brooklyn Dad Defiant reboot sucks
oh yeah man nobody who's a stupid fucking regressive asshole would ever have a bluesky account, you sure got his ass with that one

The one thing people have already memory holed about 2024 is that the "uncommitted" campaign during the Dem primary was basically the platonic ideal of what loyalists would claim they find acceptable since it didn't risk anything irt electability or 'attacking' anyone and it was still ignored.
someone on marketplace has been trying to sell this couch for weeks and the price keeps getting lower and I just don’t think thats the issue
The only card came I will ever "click" anything in is Netrunner, as god intended
Esther strikes out
The United States has never been a force for good in the world, but at one point it had more competence in its imperial ambitions. A nation that undertakes Operation Sunbeam is a nation that's going to put men on the moon. Operation Epic Fury means your nation is run by 12 year old groypers
I actually have a theory that it's possible to chart the trajectory of a nation by how cringe they make military operation names
