Can these types of games die already...
Can you be a little more specific? |

Can you be a little more specific? Games with dancing. Everyone knows that it is dancing that is ruining the MMO industry. |

I don't see the point in designing an entire game around sandbox when you can do the same thing in any other mmorpg for a 1/100 of the money by opening a pvp server.... |

Shut up.
So does that mean I'm right? All of the smileys in the world couldn't make you right. Seriously though, it's not some game, just step away from the thread. Most folks here are fairly aware of my tolerance for stupidity outside of private forums and politics. You, obviously, are not. So I'm making you aware. |

Meh I concede this is one of those wait in 5 years to say I told you so type arguments. I generally don't care enough about this subject to get in a fight with a ban hammer wielding admin.

Unfortunately, in five years, you'll still be wrong. |

Oh noes, an indie studio is making a niche game (and is fully aware of it instead of the delusions of recent AAA titles) that someone doesn't want to play! Quick, somebody stop this game from being made! Aiieee!

Hahahaha! I'm really good at this!

There are a couple of vids of the character creation floating around if you Google it. Looks good.

If anyone gets a second beta key, you can gift them to others. Others like me. It'd be appreciated.  |

Didn't you go and take a steaming dump in the Dollhouse thread 3 days after posting that? |
Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

Didn't you go and take a steaming dump in the Dollhouse thread 3 days after posting that? I see shitting on a TV show that could potentially hurt programming I like (it was originally intended to REPLACE Terminator, and hell, it still might) a little bit different than shitting on a game that in no way effects any other game in development or any other genre that exists. Not to mention, the corporate-driven espionage style of TV is something I like immensely, but obviously from the trailers, Dollhouse is a giant piece of ass. DLRiley was merely going into a thread to shit on a genre he doesn't like and doesn't understand why anyone would make such a thing. Hell, he doesn't even understand the genre, very obviously. But by all means, compare two completely different exercises. |

Okay, I tried for the creepy intro, but it was too creepy. And with pictures. Damn you internet, damn you. Anyway, FE is giving away beta keys with 1 in every 10 of their Valentine's Day cards that goes out. If you want a Valentine's Day card that might let you into beta, please PM me your email address. Or several of them, if you want to improve your odds. Or you can just email them to yourself. Just to prove I'm not making this up. I'll share out any spare keys I get. Those who PM me their email addresses will get first dibs, should I be lucky. |

I've sent one to every person who's pm'd me at this point. I'll send out more if I get more PMs.

The next batch of VD messages have gone out. If you are a Gmail user it will probably end up with a phishing warning, so here's what to do off the forums. If someone does get a beta key, I'd like to know. I've sent out quite a few  |

I sent out something like 20 cards. No keys to any of them.
It's apparently not in the cards...

I sent four cards. I know for sure that two of them had keys. I didn't hear anything about the other two so I'm assuming they were duds.

Glad it worked for some people. I think the NDA says you shouldn't say if you got an invite or not. I thought people would PM me or something.  |

Honestly, I figured you wouldn't care since there were probably a number of people asking.

I didn't mind - it's more people saying if they got a key or not here in public that might violate the NDA. |

Oh well. If it was a no no saying some of the ones I sent out got invites - oops. Stupid rule, too, especially in light of the promotion.
