It's simple. Someone wanted free publicity for their crappy game.

Out of curiousity and my own ignorance, what exactly is crappy about this game (besides your obvious disdain for the creator)?

"Age of Decadence" is going to suck. It is going to suck hard, and it is going to suck long. The funniest thing, though, is that because of VD's juvenile behavior, even if it was going to be the greatest game of all time, he can't even get the readers of a site called RPGDot to give it a second look! That means the audience for this game is essentially restricted to the ten or fifteen posters on the RPGCodex forums. Now that is truly retarded.

Did you expect me to beg or to suck up to everybody for you to like the game? If you don't like the game, that's absolutely fine with me. I've already got some interest from people who liked the concept and who are interested in the project. That's all I came here for. Keep whining though, it's entertaining.

Not very bright, are you? I came here because Dhruin was kind enough to cover my game. I didn't come here to defend myself or bash anyone, but I won't ignore all those idiotic remarks either.

I couldn't care less about your crap, so I've stopped visiting it. You couldn't care less about me and the people from RPGDot, why don't you do the same thing, and get lost, eh?

Like I said above, some people are interested in the project. They've posted here, joined the Codex, or PMed me. Whining of idiots such as yourself doesn't bother me. Am I making myself clear?

Apparently you don't know how to use the search feature from your own website. Nothing that surprises me, really. I'm sure the reviewers from a lot of websites love the comments you make about them...
That's ok, because you quote them!

Wow, 23 news posts out of 3,000+. I made 556 news posts myself. Here is a few examples from the link you provided that earned negative comments:

"TB (turn-based combat) will kill all orginality of the game (Jagged Alliance, a turn-based series, obviously)"

"About KOTOR2: Like a "Choose Your Own Adventure" novel with only one sentence on each page, sometimes having to choose every statement that your character says can be tedious. Even for RPG fans more familiar with this level of choice in exposition, you may wish that your characters spoke for themselves just a bit more. "

"About KOTOR: When I first heard that the battle-system of KoToR would be turn-based I started to spontaneously throw up. I am absolutely no lover of this concept but in this game it luckily has been worked out very well. "

No developer has been insulted there, only some stupid reviewers/forum fans who don't really know the genre they are revieiwing/talking about.

quote:
I love all your "cries" of "we call people retarded, but we quote them to show everyone what we mean, so that give us the right to call people retarded", while pointing at me that I don't back up anything I say.

Proof of what, idiot? Have anyone denied calling stupid people stupid every now and then?

This is just plain silly. Everyone that wants an rpg with a little depth and roleplaying, and that isn't a graphics whore will at least try the demo. And if its good they'll buy it. Just buy looking at the screens I know I'll buy it. I'm starving for a real rpg, and besides Nightwatch and a few small indie games, this is it. And this looks like it will be offering what I want more than any commercial release will.

I think its pretty sad that when a game offers some debth in character variables, options, and roleplaying choice it gets labled as oldschool. These characteristics of an rpg should be solidly in the new school, and constently improving and being innovated on. If indie projects are the only ones showing innovation and taking rpgs in the right direction how is that old school?

So when it gets boiled down to the nitty grit the only thing rightly dubbed oldschool about indie games are their graphics. And since graphics really have nothing to do with gamplay or game enjoyment to anyone that isnt shallow or superficial that doesn't matter.

I don't know what the little brit subhumans are complaining about
anyway, all they are doing is wailing inside their stables and waking
up the other animals inside the barn because they are grieving about
their masters making human jigsaw puzzles out of the dead remains of
their children. All the countries involved in the european union have
been moving towards this chop-n-shop-by-default for the bodies of their
domesticated livestock for some time. After surrendering their arms,
their freedom of speech and every right they have in the name of
"security," a brit subhuman has long since lost any right to even
grieve over his own children. He has surrendered his rights in the
interest of "more security," and like the Renaissance genius Ben
Franklin pointed out, any anal savaging that follows is exactly what
the pitiful little BBC watching sunken-chested girly-boy Brits had
coming. You're a stupid people, doomed to learn lessons from the past
history of mankind the hard way and your tortured screams of
unspeakable horror are like music to my ears because at least you are
learning something however useless it may be to you at this point.

Remember, in the New World Order, nobody will sell you a permit to
scream.

Stop your bleating, go back to your dingy little flats and plop down in
your narrow tiny living rooms on rented government space and watch your
interesting and engaging BBC shows on various aspects of multicultural
progress in your society. Like the main character in "Brazil," the only
place you can truly escape to is inside your own mind, so strive for
insanity every waking moment and a flight into a pleasant fantasy world
where Harry Tuttle descends on his rappelling wire with his freedom
fighters (in the fantasy, Harry didn't surrender his guns like you did)
and rescues you from the hideously evil all-powerful government. But
forget about your kids because in Britain they were destined for
dogfood the second they lost a pulse. Being an American I tend to
regard those who approve of arms confiscation as mere animals and far
less than human so I can't really sympathize with you.

What were you thinking of trying to reproduce yourselves, anyway?
Children are for humans with a future and you have none. Please stop
carrying out these dry natural rituals with no significance to barnyard
property like yourself. "No sex please, we're British!" I don't think I
could even GET an erection for a British girl, the shriveled-up little
socialist slaves put me off that much. Liz Hurley makes me feel ill to
look at, a dried-up pencil-thin socialist photo op? Yuck, she is
disgusting like all British women. They're horrid lanky, stringy horses
(dole diets) with atypical bad British teeth. How about you go and have
a nice thick vanilla milkshake you friggin' commie hags.

Even one instance is an idiotic and disrespectful thing to do. Calling other reviewers retarded is typical of "classy" people, surely...

When a civilized person doesn't agree with a review, they say the other person has a different opinion.
I visit RPGDot, or pretty much any website, and I see "website x posted the review for game x", and they may comment that they agree or not with it.
You simply call them retarded!

Really, I will not waste any more time with people like you. Your main occupation seems to be bashing other people's work, and now you don't like your work bashed. Poor thing...

--------

And one last note for everyone that mentioned I keep bashing the game just because of the person who made it:

What about Blakemore's game? You critize the game because it was made by Blakemore, so it can't possibly be any good. It's not the graphics, the gameplay, the story, just the creator.
Why can't I say the same thing, since this "Age of Decadence" (a fitting title, I must say, for the actual website) is made by a childish prick that keeps insulting reviewers from another websites, not to mention developers of certain games?

Respect should be earned.

There is a difference between stating an opinion and saying something stupid. I.e. stating that KOTOR is a great game is an opinion, saying that KOTOR is turn-based is stupid, especially if that's the guy who reviews the game to tell OTHER PEOPLE WHAT THE GAME IS LIKE.

I'm getting tired of your stupidity. I don't care that you bash my game, can you get that into your head?

That's hilarious. So, you feel that just because some people criticize the Blakemore's game, it gives you the right to criticize mine? What are you, 5 years old? Once again, I don't care if you hate my game for no good reason, but hey, pick a better excuse. This one makes you look like an idiot. Really.

Of course that makes them deserving of a retard label, right?

Coming from a guy who labels people as "retards" that comment really hurt.

Blakemore's game is irrelevant. It is the man himself, and the views that he holds that should be criticized. The decision by some people on this site to turn a blind eye to those views for the sake of something as trivial as a computer game is reprehensible.

"I said it before, now I'm saying it again - the Australian is weak.
He's bad stock. His mind is weak, he is feeble emotionally, he lacks
conviction or passion ... everything about him reads EXACTLY like those
court decisions handed down from Britain centuries ago describing the
reasons a man should be deported to Australia. He has trouble thinking
clearly. His mind doesn't function very quickly or very accurately.
Aside from drunken brawls with his mates, he would never think to
challenge authority or assert himself, he is passive by nature. He's a
broken man, like a penal convict. He's broken spirited with all that
implies.

They've been socialist (like all intellectually inferior peoples) for a
century - Australia's status as a "Free" country was always a token
label, they were included in the lists of democratic nations more out
of pity than respect. This has all been coming for a long time. They
were destined for totalitarianism, it has just taken a couple of years
to warm up. These men were never strong or hardy enough after the
ravages of WWII to front any opposition to a parental government. They
just don't have enough spunk or fight in them. They barely even have a
military of their own to speak of, they generally rely on the graces of
nations with nuclear weapons to protect themselves, like drunken bums
who panhandle the international community for security handouts.

They gave up their guns without so much as a whimper, they bent over
like bitches the second the government said so. They have had serious
censorship and government controls for a decade or so without a
complaint of any real magnitude. They just aren't Chuck Yeager - they
don't have the "right" stuff anymore.

Before WWII, you still had plenty of pioneers and freemen ... most of
the good ones died in the war, leaving the ratfaced finks and quasi-
commie labor scum behind. There just aren't enough good ones left to
mount a defense against the complacent and cowardly mob who are
desperate to sacrifice all their freedoms for the government's
"protection." The vicious cycle of dependency right down the socialist
toilet has been swirling for a long time in Oz.

I was at the protest on Friday ... it was pathetic. A couple of
greenies, some students who would turn out to protest a change in the
weather and a bunch of hippie herbal dope smokers and grunge bands. The
Australians had a chance to show their true colors on May 28th and they
showed them alright - YELLOW.

The truth is, they are a bunch of mental defectives - give 'em a footy
match and some peanuts, they'd let bureaucrats fuck their daughters for
a sports jersey and see them sold off into white slavery, they wouldn't
care one way or another. Sitting on their pub stools drinking their
Foster's and yanking pokey machine handles to waste their pension
checks from their all powerful mother and father, the State ... they're
really fugging pathetic creatures. I'm not sure Australians actually
qualify as human beings."

You are ASSuming too much. It's not about having someone to earn MY respect, it's about someone being worthy of respect in general. A person who posts nonsense like those reviewers or you, for example, doesn't deserve any.

In my opinion, yes. What would you call a person who'd review Quake, for example, and call it an isometric, turn-based game, posting for other people to see and form opinions based on such a review?

What about all the other people who read this thread? Let me give you a short overview of what your last post looked like:

Q: Why do you hate this game? You know nothing about it.
A: I saw some other guys trashing some other guy's game because they don't like him, so I will trash this game too 'cause I don't like the guy who's making it. I want to be just like them!!!

What happened to your own principles and whatever stuff YOU believe in? Went out of the window when someone gave you an excuse? Very amusing.
