It can be. You basically just have to accept that there is a 50/50 chance that you are putting that money in the toilet and never seeing the final project.

I backed System Shock remake, and that was a nightmare. I put in $350 and the project was delivered extremely late after pretty egregious mismanagement. I think the only thing that saved the project was that Night Dive Studios is kind of a well known studio. Probably a nobody or start up would have just given up and kept the money.

Its weird to think that probably this games only legacy that people will remember related to it will be that one of the artists self-reported the company using illegal hiring practices.

Ragebait. Looks like it worked.

Much, much worse. I know it may seem hard to believe, but Tencent makes everything worse, no matter how bad the starting point was.

Even NetEase would be a better option. At least NetEase got in trouble with the CCP for talking about Winnie the Pooh.

Nah, my car is 56 years old and still running. Point me to a 56 year old Civic still on the road. I don't hate Civics, but as a Californian, I am annoyed by the owners/drivers of Civics, just as I am BMW, Porsche, Tesla, and Mercedes drivers. And newer Mustang owners are just Civic owners but they have more money.

Civic owners are only different in that they think deleting the cat, deleting the muffler, and adding AutoZone stick-on ricer specials will make their car faster (none of them do). My cars got an engine putting out twice the power of a Civic but I don't need to make it the loudest fart can on the planet. In fact, I have dual mufflers installed, one for each bank, as I have a separated dual exhaust. I don't ever feel the need to race from a stop light, because I don't have anything to prove and I don't care. Go ahead, be stupid and get a speeding/exhibition of speed ticket. I'll be driving past em grinning all day long.

Racing is for the track. Not the street. It is unfortunate that Civic owners seem to ignore this the most, but thems the breaks. In the old days it used to be Chevy and GM guys here in the States, but at some point in the 90s it switched to JDM guys, primarily Civic owners. And don't get me wrong, I miss the 90s/00s West Coast car scene just as much as everyone else. But that doesn't mean that I think people should be racing on the street.

I mean, obviously I am not talking about people outside of the car scene. Grandma and grandpa who own a stock Civic from 1973 arent in the demographic I am talking about. Let's not be intellectually dishonest, I know you know what I am talking about.

Star Wars Arcade, Space Harrier, or Afterburner, probably.

The 32X was around for such little time it didn't really get to build up much of a library in the first place.

Japanese company attempting to apply Japanese law outside of Japan -- nothing new.

Wake me up when they let Yoko Taro out of his cage.

Well my point is that the title is sensationalist. Swap the name of the game for any other game currently in development and it would still be true. It is a bad title.

I liked KC1, so I am sure I will enjoy KC2. I didnt need a hypepiece to keep me interested. I was just pointing at the title of the article.
