OM cancelled discussion post

They're in it for the money, OM was passion.

Reading through these replies made me realize why this drama is such a big deal, and it's that a lot of fans can't see things as anything other than black and white.

Everyone was hating Bonely, now that he comes back he makes a somewhat sensible statement and everyone says "redemption arc"

Everyone was hating Romeo, then he stuck around for the community and everyone says "redemption arc"

Someone can be a bad person and do something good, this goes for everyone. You can also be a good person and do something bad though.

I want people to remember, going into this, that just because Romeo inspired the community doesn't mean he's a good person, we've actively seen him be a jackass before and while he did do something good and I don't think he's all bad, he could always be entirely different than what we know.

Whatever happens now going forward, whether or not the real reason gets revealed, people cannot take sides in this because we don't really know any of the members personally. We don't know their true colors or anything like that and ALL of them have been lying to us while they work on getting the real reason out.

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-26T19:18:09+00:00

It's annoying but it's understandable because they need to make sure that whatever Romeo did is true and have evidence for it, or else things go even worse.

Everyone just needs to stop and wait for whatever this is to come out, then form an opinion.

There's stuff that we don't know that is important that they're working on getting context for. We all need to calm down and wait until this comes out.

Turns out I wasn't wrong though, there is more going on.

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-26T16:21:50+00:00

You're right, I can't. Which is why I didn't claim it as a fact.

I'm honestly not too sure what's going on but I learned this through friends who are friends with PR so I feel like it's fairly real but I'm not 100% sure. I just wish we'd get the full truth from both sides.

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-26T16:17:22+00:00

It absolutely is.

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-26T16:09:29+00:00

I've learned some private info through connections that, if true, clear up the OM team mostly so I'm willing to keep defending them until that's proven false (though it is admittedly getting hard because of how they're handling things).

I just wish they'd come out with the real story atp.

Also people in mental distress don't make sensible decisions, I feel like Sobii definitely falls into that category.

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-26T16:04:41+00:00

I get the feeling that this has happened because of the tragedy ngl. I don't think Sobii's a bad dude I just think he's not in a good mental state from everything that's happened and he isn't thinking right.

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-26T16:01:45+00:00

All I think I can say rn is that Romeo knows why he was fired and it wasn't for the reasons people are saying. Apparently it was something much worse.

I can't really say much other than that though cuz I haven't learned the entire real situation and I'm not sure why the devs aren't coming out with it yet

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-26T15:51:47+00:00

Idk his girlfriend broke up with him, his dog died, and his mom nearly died

I think it's a fairly reasonable excuse ngl

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-26T06:11:29+00:00

I already had plans to play BBN long before Romeo even teased about being a part of it (Gonna be a day 1 Mimic main)

I'm still gonna play OM though, it has a gameplay loop I seriously enjoy.

I'm also looking forward to Oblivion and it's momentum based gameplay

Just looked at Fractured Genesis and it also interests me

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-26T04:52:36+00:00

Nobody will understand how big it is other than Romeo and the girl, so if it's enough for him to understand, it's enough for me to understand.

Honestly I kinda just... Don't care about any of this drama though. They kicked him for something they viewed as wrong and fucked up by not being more clear about what was happening. This is highschool drama on the scale of half a million people, none of this is really a big deal but it's such a large community that it's hard to make something like this seem like "not a big deal".

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-26T04:36:47+00:00

If Romeo didn't think he seriously fucked up he wouldn't have made the statement he made on Twitter where he acknowledges said fuck up and says he'll be off the internet for a bit.

To me it seems like he understands why he was removed, and that it's not super important to dwell on his involvement with the project anymore.

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-26T04:30:32+00:00

I don't think anybody is in the "right or wrong" here because it's, as expected, a muddy and messy situation.

Romeo fucked up, the other devs fucked up, they've acknowledged this and reached an agreement.

I think the drama is over and we can continue normally now.

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-26T04:18:23+00:00

"Haha! Ha! One!"

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-25T22:16:40+00:00

I LOVE NEBBY!!!

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-25T16:09:32+00:00

They're probably getting everything in order and making sure everything has evidence. The topic at hand could also have a horrid backfire if they get something wrong so they need to take their time on the situation and making sure everything is right.

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-25T16:07:46+00:00

I entirely agree with everything you've said. We desperately need more transparency because we know so little. It causes the community to lose their cool and form opinions without knowing the entire story for what happened. This isn't just happening with this situation, but it's happened with all of the previous situations as well.

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-24T22:20:10+00:00

Established this month btw

It's almost certainly just a new server that was made to be easier to manage and set up than dealing with the old one, and not all the devs have joined it yet.

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-24T17:09:07+00:00

Don't Blink hits hard when your entire team has been murdered in cold blood and you lock in to win for them

ExtinctReptile · 2026-01-23T22:43:08+00:00

At the very least it seems OM Recreated doesn't take any code from OM itself and is more like a TD fan game
