To think I was just getting over my belief that CCP did not give 2 shi** about Dust at the end of the day.

I think it is just that people outside of CCP and the community care more about Valkyrie than DUST. DUST was first mentioned in, what, 2009? It was 'released' last year. Old news; same reason why people are not espousing the greatness of Titanfall anymore. It is out, 'it is old', need something else to hype. Oculus Rift is new while Playstation 3 is so old that it's replacement is out.

For someone that isn't interested in games, Valkyrie looks more interesting. 3-D VR spaceship dog fighting on the PC. PC gives you a bigger market right there, though Oculus Rift shrinks that market significantly. OR is the big cool thing that people have been waiting for, it has a "shocker" with it being bought by another company (though the fact that it was Facebook was surprising). The big thing is that DUST had all the pomp and circumstance when the concept of connected game came out but it hasn't moved fast enough yo capitalize on that fact.

Simply put: "Virtual Reality space battle" sounds sexier than "Console Shooter linked to computer based MMO", even if they are both technically impressive in their own way.

Truthfully, it was probably no where near as much as it would have been to get the likes of a celebrity A lister. Probably about the same as it would have cost them to hire any other voice actress. Katee has nerd cred, and a relatively small (ish) cult following. I would assume they'd have paid more for Kate Mulgrew. That said.. OMG IT'S STARBUCK!!!!! swoon

There is definitely no arguing with that. Your point on it being old only makes me more frustrated. It is old before we ever even got a working top level game mode or a new player experience that makes this game worth promoting.

It just means that DUST needs to do something big again AND follow through. An announcement of the release onto PC and PS4, for example, would give a HUGE burst into the game. Same thing that World of Warcraft did when Cataclysm came out. The game was old news, no one was talking about it, an expansion was coming out but it couldn't be that big of a deal. They make it a big deal again by saying "yeah, we are pretty much blowing up the world and making it entirely different than it was before. Areas that were oasis are deserts, deserts are now water levels, most iconic zones ripped to shreds." So if DUST were to do something like port onto the PC as well as introduce new game modes, new features (tutorials, quests, etc), and provide the EVE link that people have been waiting for for about 4 years the game would suddenly be new and relevant.

Yup. and then multiply that by roughly 6 because they would use local Chinese programmers. and then weep softly to yourself as you imagine crashing a fighter jet into a titanic rogue drone attacking your districts defenses you only built just this morning after weeks of grinding ISK and harvesting planet goo. thanks for the feels himiko, you're always on target with it.
