Title: Remember Black Isle, the dudes who brought Fallout and Icewind Dale? Post by: rk47 on December 20, 2012, 01:39:12 AM http://blackisle.com/
I'm so, so sorry. :why_so_serious: Title: Re: Remember Black Isle, the dudes who brought Fallout and Icewind Dale? Post by: Ingmar on December 20, 2012, 01:44:28 AM I am pretty sure this is another zombie Interplay thing, pretty much all the main Black Isle people are at Obsidian.
PV13 was a codename for some never-finished Fallout sequel if I am remembering correctly. (Possibly the Fallout MMO before they lost the rights to Bethesda.)

This is some Kickstarter style "give me money for nothing" bullshit?

alternately: Black Isle wakes in a mortuary, with no memory of it's past. Title: Re: Remember Black Isle, the dudes who brought Fallout and Icewind Dale? Post by: Lantyssa on December 20, 2012, 09:21:41 AM Don't trust the skull.

This is some Kickstarter style "give me money for nothing" bullshit? In this case you're giving them money for quite literally nothing; at no level of pledging do you actually get the game he's promising.

I can hope... Title: Re: Remember Black Isle, the dudes who brought Fallout and Icewind Dale? Post by: Paelos on December 20, 2012, 01:41:38 PM I like this guy's quote: "In what universe do you go to an investor and ask them to invest without any tangible product or return on investment? This is quite possibly the most ludicrous thing I have ever seen. If you want to get an investment, come with a product I will receive. You are not a non-profit, a place of worship, or other well wishing organization that I can trust will take my money and put it to some good and give me a tax break on top of it all. This is despicable. Get a job."
Followed by: "That's bullcrap. They are using a fundraising site instead of Kickstarter because there is no promise of a tangible product or return on investment. They are asking for an investment. What they are giving in return is tantamount to a progress newsletter. " Title: Re: Remember Black Isle, the dudes who brought Fallout and Icewind Dale? Post by: Pagz on April 22, 2013, 06:24:32 AM So, um, does anyone know if there's anything going on with this at all? I can't find any information on it, which is hilarious. Does anyone has access to their forum or whatever?
Title: Re: Remember Black Isle, the dudes who brought Fallout and Icewind Dale? Post by: schild on April 22, 2013, 07:06:51 AM Of course nothing is going on with this. It's a scam.
Title: Re: Remember Black Isle, the dudes who brought Fallout and Icewind Dale? Post by: HaemishM on April 22, 2013, 08:39:01 AM To quote myself:
Man, fuck that Interplay guy. Fuck him in his earhole. This is some Kickstarter style "give me money for nothing" bullshit? The guy who owns the Black Isle name is a fucking tool who wants your money for nothing. At least Garriot will give you something shitty. This guy will give you nothing. |
