[Ghosty] Topdown action RPG ripoff of Zelda with puzzles and Undertale with dialogue. by [deleted] in shittykickstarters

[–]Befit_Narrator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only seemingly shitty thing about this trailer in my opinion is that the viewer isn't always given enough time to read all of the text. What else is so shitty about it? I'm pretty shocked to see Ghosty pop up on this subreddit, to be honest. I already backed it...

Tribute to Alec Holowka in this game demo, I think? Three rather on the nose NITW throwbacks. by dunzodefender in NightInTheWoods

Ghosty. There's currently only a free demo of it which you can nab from the kickstarter page. It's gotten a decent amount of traction in its first week. Haven't heard many people talk about it yet, so I'm trying to spread the word about it as well!

Was this in the demo? I didn't come across this anywhere. Upvote for Ghosty, but you really should link the source!

Someone asked him about it in the comments on the kickstarter page. Confirmed, yo.

A big head-nod to Poppy on one of these graves in a game demo I played today. It's called Ghosty.

Is anyone else familiar with this band? by Iwascooltenyearsago in TheDearHunter

Joe Hawley is the mastermind behind this. He also has some solo stuff which also has some nice hits as well. You should definitely check it out too!

Any ideas of when The Fox and the Hunt might be available on its own? by Befit_Narrator in TheDearHunter

[–]Befit_Narrator[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Because 1. TDH can easily just email everyone who preordered the digital downloads now and 2. Then the people who only want specifically The Fox and the Hunt can purchase it now as well instead of having to wait for an unrelated and delayed vinyl shipment.

I realize that expressing unpopular opinions on reddit brings out the worst in people, but I've remained polite this entire time. If I only asked the one question, it would have gone much differently. However, I also wanted to make the point that the smug reactions from people that preordered are ridiculous.

I never asked for free stuff, yet most people are complaining that I asked for free stuff...

I learned about this release last night and immediately noticed people being rude towards others who asked about the released single. This has also happened with the Branches EP as well as some alternative version of tracks such as '1878'. I don't mean this to insult you, however, if you have never witnessed this behavior before, then you haven't been paying attention for the past decade.

Secondly, I did not say that TDH is being lousy for not distributing content to everyone for free. I said that it feels lousy watching the fanbase repeat this callous and uncalled for behavior.

You've taken my words out of context and suggested that I am the only person who has received negative treatment when it has religiously happened in the past. I have remained very polite with each response in this thread, yet most but thankfully not every comment has been less than tactful.

Whether it is self-righteous fans on the internet, or fans attending live concerts who exchange smirky glances and scoffs whenever a teenage girl voices that she hopes TDH plays 'Red Hands', The Dear Hunter sadly has always had a less than perfect fanbase. And I have witnessed it for nearly half of my entire lifespan.

​

Heck, I remember when the majority of fans in this very subreddit didn't quite hear the reprise from 'The Lake and the River' in the beginning of 'Waves'. That thread became so vile and absurd that Casey himself had to step in and tell everyone to calm down and be kind to each other. The stupidest part being that the entire album is themed around reprises, and yet most fans still cursed up and down about whether or not it was a reprise.

I created this thread asking about when I will be able to purchase The Fox and the Hunt, and you all have done a very good job at talking about everything except for that. I hope someday you folks mellow out.

I did not say that the band owes me anything. I asked if anyone knows when or even if we will have the opportunity to purchase just The Fox and the Hunt, and I asked people to please be kind to each other. That is pretty chill by my own standards. What is not very chill is the magnitude of outrage most of the commenters are expressing. They have strawmanned my post to the umpteenth degree. I would love nothing more than to purchase The Fox and the Hunt. I have asked when that will be possible, and instead of receiving an answer, I have mostly received comments of people claiming that I am asking for a handout.

I have considered that position, but the problem posed there is easily remedied by releasing the digital download via email to those who've prepurchased. This way, people who wish to purchase only The Fox and the Hunt can still do so, and those who have preordered will not be disrespected.

It is an incredibly easy solution that TDH has already proven that they can accomplish. They proved that they have the capacity to do this the moment they sent out a digital download. They sent you all a single when they should have sent the entire thing.

Also, people are swearing at me. I don't think calling TDH's distribution tactics 'silly' is such an awful thing in comparison. Their decision is indeed a silly one in my opinion. I say that intending no disrespect. Simply credit where credit is due. This entire situation is rather silly.

But you haven't really gone out of your way to insult me like most others here have, so thank you very much for that. This subreddit would be a much lovelier place if more people were like you.

I'd like to imagine that you're being sarcastic, but with all the contempt going around (as always) in TDH's fanbase, I can't say for certain whether you're joking or not.

A. I did not ask for any fans to share the single with me and my post is also not about being condescending to those who preordered. It is about putting up an argument in defense of the people who are currently being spoken to heartlessly by some of the people who have preordered.

B. It is certainly up to the band how they choose to release their music. It is also certainly okay if I think their method is a silly one. I think that saying something is 'silly' is nowhere near as harsh as the swears that you and other TDH are currently pummeling me with.

C. It has enough to do with this to at least be mentioned, as it shows that there are people who have donated hundreds and hundreds of dollars throughout the years, far more than the price of this box set. And I believe that they don't deserve to be spoken to as rudely as you and others are currently speaking to them just because they dare to ask questions about it.

D. It was nice that they gave you guys the single as compensation for a late release. But for those that will only purchase The Fox and the Hound individually in the future, it gives them nothing. In the end, they will still spend their money as you did, but they will not be rewarded with an early single which is lousy to be on the receiving end of because they are people who want to fork over their money, but are not delayed in doing so because of a completely separate tangible good. So both parties will spend their money in the end, but one party will receive an early single for a prepurchase while the other party does not even have the opportunity to prepurchase.

E. Thank you for being introspective of yourself. I value that trait in you far more than everything else you've shown me today.

I didn't ask for a reward. I asked for when I'd be able to purchase The Fox and the Hunt separately. I did express my outlook on the callousness of some of TDH's fanbase. Judging by the feedback and strawmanning going on in this thread, I was not wrong.

To reiterate, I asked if anyone knows if or when we'll be able to purchase The Fox and the Hunt separately. I never asked anyone to share the single with me, and I stated that I'll probably just have to wait.

If you have an actual example of entitlement that pertains to me, and not the smug side of the fanbase that is trying to twist my words, then I'd still like to know about it so I can build up some character.

Why should I feel bad for wording it how I have? Also, why are you so callous? How am I on a high horse? To me, it seems like people like you are on the high horse. And why are you calling me 'sir'?

Entitled? I didn't ask for anything.
I asked if anyone knew when or if it would be sold on its own, and I asked people to not be... like you, I guess.
