It means they'll have a whole lot of problems with donors / fans complaining if it gets delayed by one month, let alone six months or more.
So? It's still an estimated date, so they have the right to deliver later.
And if it means nothing, why put that date on it at all?
As was said, they had to.
If your argument is that they don't even care enough about their own project to put a realistic date on it, then that should tell you all you need to know about the thought that's gone into this project.
I don't know if they care and I don't care. I care if they deliver a good game, even if it will be some time later than estimated date of delivery.
My argument here is that they aren't constrained by deadlines, even though they showed the estimated date of delivery.
To people at the Codex, to guys who want that fundraiser to succeed. Either you don't understand that by posting this way you
sabotaged the effort or you did it on purpose.
Besides, we did much the same thing to Dead State - there certainly wasn't overwhelming love expressed.
Your news post here wasn't neutral, it was highly negative and discouraging.
When was the Codex ever "professional"? If professional means selling out what you actually think and instead selling some crap you don't really believe because you want the kids' money, then professional can go shove it. In fact, that's entirely what the Codex isn't.
Don't put words in my mouth. Professional means doing what you are ought to and doing it the way it should be done. No-one expected your fundraiser announcement to be Obsidian marketing agenda, but it shouldn't discourage people from donating.
Are you really saying that a "neutral" news post by me, with then me saying everything that I've said in this thread, would have somehow been "better"?
Than this? Hell yes. Of course there are better ways like letting someone else post the announcement. If you aren't excited by the idea, just do your duty as admin instead of disturbing things.
This place doesn't exist to funnel money into developer's pet projects just because that's apparently the "professional" thing to do.
Where have I said it is what "professional" means? Nowhere. If you aren't witty enough to grasp what I had in mind, don't try too hard. Also I don't think you are to decide single-handedly what this place exist for and what it doesn't. But I think that's the very point where we disagree.
If Crooked Bee had made a warm and loving news post and I'd still been here calling the people who donated on day one - when they knew shit about the project other than a poorly drawn World Map - brain-dead, along with criticising them in the news thread, you'd still be complaining that I'm not doing enough to encourage people to donate.
No, because you'd be doing it just like every other user, you wouldn't be exploiting your rights to impose your personal opinions. You seem to not want this fundraiser to succeed and to do everything you can to make it fail without yourself being blamed. Pathetic attempts to discredit me by implying I propose to milk the money for PE on Codex, when I'd just rather have a fair fundraiser announcement, fair for people here on Codex who want it, just prove your intentions are shady at best.
It's not my "job", nor is it my "role" to sell someone elses KickStarter project.
Nope, your role is to provide fair assistance to the Codex community. People at Codex wanted a fundraiser, so your role was to help them with it. If you at the same time try to disturb the project by stating some negative shit while announcing it, you break your role here.
And you've decided to publicly embrace your butthurt over me embracing my butthurt with your "superior opinions" complaining about professionalism.
Yes I did but it's much less publicly as I did it in a comment and as a mere user, unlike you, who did it as admin on a front page news post throwing insults on people. If you still can't see a difference, then that's why you didn't grow up to your role.
But do we need another RTWP game with Elves, Faggs and Magic shit? DA 3 is made by Biowhore already. The goal of Kickstarter was to promote games which Big 4 won't touch like 
fansite. Besides this project is already funded, you want to be 
and 
? Do the drive to help fun some original project which needs cash... Cause it has no big and cool names like Avalone or Fargo.
