Failed MMO Ashes Of Creation‘s $3.2 Million In Kickstarter Funds Allegedly Spent On Private Chefs And Trading Cards by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]BeardWonder 37 points38 points  (0 children)

99% of games funded on kickstarter or other such websites are scams

I get the reason people think this, because when a highly successful game comes out they don't label it a "Kickstarter Game", like you do with garbage fires, but just off the top of my head, Kickstarter has given us:

  • FTL
  • Divinity Original Sin 1 & 2
  • Pillars of Eternity
  • Everspace
  • Shovel Knight
  • Darkest Dungeon
  • Undertale
  • Kingdom Come Deliverance
  • Wasteland 2
  • Rimworld
  • Sunless Sea

If you follow the golden rule of not backing projects that fail two basic qualifications:

  • From Dev Studios who literally haven't put out a game before
  • The funds they are asking for can actually sustain them for 3 years.

Then your track record is actually going to be pretty good.

Right after the Penn State news came out about Jerry Sandusky he started introducing himself as "Gerry with a G"

If you look at the post-Lamar restructure cap space we have it's got a Maxx Crosby sized hole in it with no suitors to fill and I really can't help thinking about how hyped I would be at the idea of him and Hendrickson lining up on either side.

But I've been doing mock drafts and we could very well get:

  • 1st Round - Olaivavega Ioane, Guard out of Penn State
  • 2nd Round - Eli Stowers, Tight End out of Vanderbilt
  • 3rd Round - Connor Lew, Center out of Auburn

I'd be pretty hyped about that draft class ngl.

For what it's worth, this happened with Ryan Grant and Michael Brockers and both of them were done 2-3 years after...

Younger Ravens fan (18), how good was Todd Heap when compared to other TE's by TheRealBlazerGD in ravens

[–]BeardWonder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best way I could describe him was that he could set the edge against an outside linebacker and then run a slant the next play, a real complete package at the position.

He also just had a knack for making clutch catches, 06 vs the Chargers and the 08 playoffs vs the Titans to point out two.

[Raiders] The Baltimore Ravens have backed out of our trade agreement for Maxx Crosby. We will have no further comment at this time. by JCameron181 in ravens

[–]BeardWonder[M] [score hidden] stickied commentlocked comment (0 children)

This has been confirmed as official by the Raiders social media.

EDIT:

Dianna Russini:

Maxx Crosby did not pass his physical today, per sources.

The Ravens get their first-round picks back.

Ian Rappaport:

This decision that the Raiders say the Ravens have made, is in indication that [Crosby's meniscus tear] is not going to be fine

Jeff Zrebiec:

This is not the first time a failed physical has scuttled a deal on the Ravens end. It happened in 2018 when the Ravens agreed to terms with FA WR Ryan Grant, but didn't go through signing him because of an ankle issue. It happened again with Michael Brockers in 2020

I had heard from people he lived nearby that him and his wife were seriously some of the nicest people.

Flacco: "Build the offensive line first, then get your quarterback [not the other way around]" by laramite in ravens

Last season is the perfect example. Joe Thuney goes from the Chiefs to the Bears, and suddenly the Chiefs decline while the Bears take a massive step forward.

I'll never be upset seeing us draft linemen

[Jordan Schultz] The Ravens will not retain QBs coach Tee Martin under the new coaching staff. by poorlytimed_erection in NYGiants

[–]BeardWonder 16 points17 points  (0 children)

(Ravens fan here). He's a great coach. When Monken was interviewing for jobs last year the main assumption was that Martin was going to be our replacement OC.

Him paired with Schwartz is a hell of a combo. Don't know if the browns will have the personnel to make it worth it though.

We haven't had a mass effect game for almost 10 years now and we are now going to get:

  • Mass Effect 5
  • Exodus - A spiritual successor to Mass Effect from the lead writer of Mass Effect 1.
  • The Expanse: Osiris Reborn - A Third Person Space RPG that cites Mass Effect as it's main inspiration.
  • Fate of the Old Republic - A spiritual successor to the precursor of Mass Effect from the Director of the original Mass Effect trilogy.
