DUST Search - Pessimism

To cover a couple things.

A) F*ck marketing. You can't market a piece of **** and expect it to be gangbusters long term. If you looked at the New Player creation chart that EVE Offline had, you would have noticed tons of people joining on open beta. It's not that people didn't know about the game, it is that the game sucked to most people playing and they didn't stick around. You can't market to that. It just doesn't work. Period. If someone doesn't like Brussels sprouts, you can't just show them an advertisement, and suddenly they will like it.

Marketing. Doesn't. Fix. Everything....

B) The game was crappier than you give it credit for. It wasn't polished crap, because it wasn't even polished. Did it have awesome qualities that none of us have found in other games? Absolutely. Did that negate the glitches, the brokenness, the complete mess that was much of the coding in Dust? No.

C) This game isn't meant to be a one and done deal. Stop spreading the notion that just because something isn't in the game at release you will never see it. EVE doesn't look like it did when it first started. WoW is so different a game from it's release. The intention is to create something that will be around for years. A foundation to be built upon. By it's nature it will be iterative.

Is it reasonable to be concerned that the game will fail, and the fullness of Nova doesn't get realised? Yes.

Is it reasonable to say that just because something isn't in the game at the beginning, then CCP must intend the game to never have ever, in the many years that could possibly come for Nova? No.

I get it. You are nervous. You have every right to be.

But for F*cks sake, stop it with the apocalyptic talk. Stop exaggerating to the point of being ludicrous. Stop jumping to conclusions when you don't have a whit of evidence about anything.

We need your input, but if you are going to make such ridiculous conclusions, and make baseless exaggerations you aren't going to provide any useful ideas.

Get ahold of yourselves!!

*End old man rant*
