What happens when a developer, such as Epic. That always have been about the fans. That always have helped aspiring developers, up and into the industry. Falls from grace, and starts hiring marketing people. That want's more monney, more fame and less competition.
Well, I think this link answers allot of those questions. Here
This is my comment on the recent Silicon Knights lawsuit against Epic.
This is not a huge suprize. Look how Epic are representing them selfs. When they show a Unreal Tournament 3 video, it always says "From the makers of Gears of War". Why the hell would a developer like Epic and a game like UT3 have to promote theme selfs like that? I mean Gears of War is not even a blimp on the radar compared to UT3!
What I feel is the reason for this, is that Epic has hired people that think more about the buck's. And don't really know games. I mean, UT is one of the best FPS shooters of all time, and they feel like a good game(compared to other UT's) like GoW will help sell the online shooter that built upon quake, and made online shooters what they are too day. Then there is something wrong in Epic!! Clean up in you're own ranks Epic, before its too late.
Whats youre thought's, please post a comment.
