George Ziets opening a new RPG studio - Digimancy Entertainment

[Jinn]

You're begging for a glimpse of a theoretical game from a studio that's never released not just a single good game, but a single game at all. That's simping to the highest of levels.

You may even be a fan of one of the older guys at the studio, but recent examples proved that's not helpful in making good games at all, see Autist Worlds.

What's there to elaborate? Like Bester's already answered, there's zero track record. Zero. Ziets is a cool guy I guess but that's not even remotely enouth to be excited about whatever outsource stuff they're working on. Or even their own imaginary game which might never see the light of day ever at this rate. I can try to shlick thinking about it all for the company but that will not change anything reality speaking.

You guys understand that I was essentially criticizing them for having absolutely nothing to show, right? I would like to see a theoretical RPG from any studio, because I'm a fan of RPGs. Me pointing how there is nothing to show after 5 years from this studio does not equal "simping." That is the simple point.

A fan of RPGs OR… just a fan of Ziets i.e. a simp.

I really don't give much of a shit about Ziets and the few things he's worked on. He hasn't even made enough for me to be able to consider myself a fan. I've never indicated I'm a fan in any way shape or form.

Good news everybody, Annie's gone.

Narrative Lead
Digimancy Entertainment · Contract
Aug 2022 - Dec 2023 · 1 yr 5 mos

Worked on some very cool stuff with some very amazing co-developers, eager to do so again!

One hopes this was just for Avowed.

On a more gossipy note, I noticed that even though Digimancy is a remote company, Disco Olga actually moved to George's city. Did he pull a Mitsoda? If so, I hope that works out a lot better for them.

 

[Viata]

0 games so far.

"Somebody hire me pls"

 

[Yosharian]

These guys haven't even made anything yet have they?

 

[Viata]

But at least we have good news. Someone is not working there anymore. Maybe now we will get some games after 5 years.

Nah, seems to be a support studio on several games, but nothing original of their own.

 

[Viata]

I can understand the point of helping other devs and there was this one japanese dev I was interested that did the same. But I think some mod should remove the "new rpg studio" there if they are not making any new game of their own.

Nah, seems to be a support studio on several games, but nothing original of their own.

A lot of indie studio heads I met ended up doing support as their main activity. After the first game tanks, the studio usually fails to secure funding for a second game and ends up moslty doing support, while working on game 2 between contracts.
However, doing 100% support contract work from the beginning is quite unusual.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Does the studio make any money and grow though?

If this goes on they will manage to outlast Troika despite releasing no games.

That is why.

 

[Roguey]

Troika had the overhead of a physical location. Running a business is easier when there's no building.

This group of Devs are whipped, midwit, eternal centrist, WOKE kneelers. Why are you expecting anything good?

 

[Viata]

At this point I'm just expecting something.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Sooo..... Digimancy eh?

Will there be spellcasting Digimon?

Hmmmm?

 

[Viata]

Sooo..... Digimancy eh?

Will there be spellcasting Digimon?

Hmmmm?

We don't even know if there is any game.

Is this 55 pages for what is essentially a placeholder?

Incline. Given that everything is shit, not making anything is a sign of quality.
