Vapourware Unknown Realm: The Siege Perilous - an 8-bit RPG for PC and Commodore 64

[luj1]

Will they be held accountable? This is a clear scam

also lol @ Uknown Realm inspired so many games it's unbelieavable (a game which never came out)

It was that demo video and ugly pug dog.

Trolling them is pointless. They thrive on being "victims" of harassment. Kickstarter will never hold them accountable, they lack the tools to do so.

The best thing you can do is:
1) Don't give them attention. That's what they want, because it makes them look sympathetic. Treat them with the contempt they deserve and turn away.
2) If they try and rebrand or refund on other platforms, tell people your experience with them. They can't be trusted with your money to deliver the product they promise.

Also...

3) After looking at the campaign again recently, it really comes short of the efforts that Nox Archaist and, well, I hesitate to toot my own horn but Realms of Antiquity achieved. C64 retro fans deserve better than that.

I suppose they take credit for Moonring as well. Hell, BG3 happened because of them. Get fucking real. This brain-fucked Dude is probably living with a junkie hooker (his supposed wife) and kids he bought off the Mexican black market. They smash and grab with niggers at targets and Walmarts just to get by because all that cash goes to drugs, fast food, and booze. I think SDG moved in with them. Maybe GGS is spider fucking them at this very moment. Maybe aliens have abducted them all and relocated them all to a hidden bunker between Russia & China performing dark rituals to a pug faced dog demon from the 13th abyssal hell dimension.

Fuck if anyone knows really. All anyone does know is the smell of shit from this “company” is so bad it forced Elon Musk to change Twitter to “X”

Unknown Realms caused George Floyd to become depressed and OD.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

It caused covid-19 as well and Trump to lose the election and Jan 6th and the invasion into the Ukraine. Also, the ALIEN UAP SCARE that is happening. I think it is why my parents went insane and is why hornets and rats and worse infest the property. And soon, the antichrist will be awakened because of Unknown Realms.

They clearly inspired Realms Beyond as well, name and and business-wise.

 

[Saduj]

Unknown Realm inspired the most recent Indian Social Security scam.

 

[Abu Antar]

Unknown Realms did inspire other games. It also cured my poor eyesight, and grew my balls by 15%.

I heard that Slope is making a video about them.

Who's that? Link?

Guess he means this bloke:

He's covered a lot of failed kickstarters over the years, funny guy.

I also want to add the Unknown Realm fixed my marriage and changed out the serpentine belt on my car.

Money is tight in the Unknown Realm!

To clarify:

https://stirringdragon.games/ - godaddy.com
https://unknownrealm64.com/ - godaddy.com

stirringdragon.games is a novelty domain and is about $90 a year. With hosting including a website kit that adds up to about $130/yr.
unknownrealm64.com however is a bog-standard homepage for about $60/yr.

Fun fact: They fail to maintain both websites in terms of security, but that's another topic.

To conclude: Buy merch to cover that hefty ~$200 bill to be able to get the constant updates for the game.

Super fun fact:

If you request information about the domains (click) you get:

Domain Status: clientTransferProhibited https://icann.org/epp#clientTransferProhibited
Domain Status: clientUpdateProhibited https://icann.org/epp#clientUpdateProhibited
Domain Status: clientRenewProhibited https://icann.org/epp#clientRenewProhibited
Domain Status: clientDeleteProhibited https://icann.org/epp#clientDeleteProhibited

That's rather odd!
These are "Client Status Codes are Set by Your Domain's Registrar".
The interesting on here is:
clientRenewProhibited: This status code tells your domain's registry to reject requests to renew your domain. It is an uncommon status that is usually enacted during legal disputes or when your domain is subject to deletion.
The other ones just mean that the domain is frozen and can't be moved/deleted or change owners right now.

Lightbringer Bruce my boy, whatcha doin!

So looks like after November 10th, stirringdragon.games will be gone.

Funny that unknownrealm64.com is good until next July, which they never update.

With X/Twitter soon to be behind a paywall and thus useless for social media, looks like the only place anyone will find anything about UR at is, ironically, the Kickstarter page.

 

[Contagium]

If only there was some website/forum where developers could post about their upcoming games and get support from potential buyers, Bruce could do well with something like that.

Oh, wait

Ooh, another From Kickstarter to Court episode?

If only he'd take his own advice...

 

[Grauken]

If only he'd take his own advice...

Well, X at least has users. Can't have users without a game, only suckers

I see a potential parking lot at unknownrealm64. Nothing there now but EXPIRED!

 

[adamantyr]

Yeah, both links now return account suspended.

 

[shilence]

That's rather unfortunate, since they were just about to release the beta program on their website!

Coming to think of it - when their website is suspended their mail adresses might be down as well. Bummer, now backers can't contact them anymore.

 

[Eli_Havelock]

Man, this is such a tragedy to come right after they made it popular for games to have websites.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Well there is IA

“Knock but Nobody is home…”

IT IS LOCKED!!

HO HO HO! SECRET SANTA DOOR!

Is X going to demand $$$ for usage of it? I’d fucking bail on that bullshit too tbh so I can’t fault them for “X” shit. I believe they’ll use this as reason to just “disappear” tbh. Convenient way to drop out flipping the middle finger to everyone. They are still minor players compared to Lord Bitchish though.

Looking at this pic… I just noticed the demonic possessed eyes. Fuck! Her eyes are surrounded by darkness….

DEMONESS!!!

Anyway, it is still a shame tbh. They put the potential work into all of this and spent on promotion etc but bow out like this? Pshhh… fucking lame.

 

[shilence]

Are we even real? Are we banned? Is this.. hell?


Also he reposted himself to show how true and honest this statement is
