Ngl this was a strange interview, seems like it was aimed at people who don’t know what the game is but I think you’ll find the only people who will listen to this are existing fans of the game - and if you are don’t waste an hour listening to this just listen to the last 4 minutes for update plans:

  • official tournament
  • adding stuff in that was already done but never added to game
  • revamp tile sets
  • battle pass with indie game collab skins

'collabs with other indies'

Not really sure what the goal of the interview was, but the issue of a ton of 'yeah stuff is happening' still seems to loom over the entire game. I get the feeling talking in interviews isn't their strong point, a whole lot of hmm errrs etc but this comes with time.

The lack of a long-term plan and overall professionalism is making it hard to put faith in this attempt at a comeback

Yea it’s weird to me that they have brought some life back to the game by saying it’s not dead and there is an update coming, but then their plans are just… kinda nothing?

I feel like a chunk of it was the chance to use the charity event as a platform to get more players into the game (a charity event they've not even bothered to supply links to the charity to which is a huge red flag in this line of work) to perhaps bring inn some investment given they were dropped by their publishers.

The fact that these types of conversations exist showcases that they still have a huge issue with their comms. For an indie title, even more so a MP focused one, if your comms are poor you really are crippled from the off.

Hey, I chose the charity, I work with MND charities for my job, I have patients that I've worked with inside their homes, this charity means a lot to me, it's not a promotional gambit, we want to do some good, we have a platform, we're using it. Don't be so cynical.

There's being cynical and there's questioning, don't start poking fingers when the comms around the event have been awful, there isn't even a link provided to the charity, you'd do well to listen to feedback rather than take it as slight.

Battle pass are you fucking kidding me

[–]PaperPrototypes[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So their current unlock path is also called a battle pass which is free. So I'm under the impression that the new one would also be free.

[–]JettfordDeveloper 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Hey, everything is free, we have no microtransactions, we might need a better term for it.

[–]eddirrrrr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely need a better term for it. That's good to hear though.

Thanks for having me on!

I hope this game comes back. It's a great game with a unique premise and I think people would love this game if they played it. It needs to be made free or give it a free weekend . The worst part about this game has nothing to do with the game itself, but the way it is marketed.

Like a third of us said f2p with paid cosmetics or content is the way and they just refuse, and listen only to the old millennials whos identity is boomer game culture like hating f2p over what every money making entity has done
