No one (other than you) can tell when your Lols are sincere or insincere. So there isn't much point to them. But if it pleases you, keep doing it. Sort of reminds me of this scene about beetle crushing from GoT:
You are all giving Gdemami much too hard a time, I for one would have taken at least three extra months to make orange without him. He really just wants us to all be Legendary deep down.

No way... I’m actually just waiting for the day that the old State Of Elyrias start to disappear and get “lost”. Facts are inconvenient. Much easier to talk about a nebulous future than what is there for all to read regarding the past.

@ZeekPlayz What is the purpose of this OP? To show this site how wrong they are? And yes we know how COE feels about MMORPG.com. But you see, I have been on this board since (not digging into my own history for an actual date) since GW2 was still in early development.
Many of us have been around. We've seen what comes and what goes. We know what it takes to make winners and losers. We've seen all of them pass through here. We have been in extensive conversations about what it takes for a developer and studio to put a winning combination together. We aren't ignorant. We've been around this block dozens of times. An MMORPG isn't something someone's going to get lucky on and slap together a winner on a shoestring with bubblegum. I know I am taking liberties speaking for others, because I know there are others who feel as I do on this.
I've seen the video and it's not impressive. I know it's not far fetched to say this project has all the hallmarks of failure written all over it. If by some miracle there is a game title called Chronicles of Elyria ever released, it will be nothing even remotely close to the game pitched to Kickstarter.
What's more, is that even if by some chance we are wrong. Then we have erred on the side of caution and skepticism. The numbers just add up this way. And we can always join the party later. And of course, if joining later means we've missed the boat, then it means the game was always P2W to begin with.
But it's all a bit "on the nose" for me. Are you sure you guys aren't acting cooperatively to make a point and set an example? Because I've been a member here since March, 2005, and this kind of thing never happens.
Dorky fact for the day: The composer Robert Shumann wrote for a journal where he created two literary alter egos: Eusebius and Florestan.
Each one had a different temperament and each one would argue on a different side of the same topic.
Maybe that's what's going on here. They are, in fact, the same person.
Now kiss!

I'm zeek. And I'm here to get some *Facts* into this mmorpg forum. Just as a disclaimer, mmorpg is a joke among people in CoE.
Everything after this line is blah blah blah. You felt the need to come here and white knight your beloved game on a forum you consider a joke. Cool story bro. Show me on the doll where this community touched you.
If you had read any of the rest of the thread you might have seen the OP has had a change of heart.
Ok, and? I was speaking to his original post, beyond that it's moot. Good job though, I guess white knights need white knights.
If you want a new idea, go read an old book.
In order to be insulted, I must first value your opinion.
Interesting note. For the month of November the dev tracker shows a total of 4 posts by developers on the main form. 2 of those are in “tech support”...
Caspien did however stop into Discord and tell everyone that 2020 was going to be “amazing” and “exciting” and how busy he was interviewing new people.
Its like he isn’t even trying any more. He’s just recycling prior years comments and changing the year. And the Ivory Tower eats it right up. What happened to them being “the storm” in 2019?

Do you really want to be the one to change their feed? That's about the fastest way to make wild animals mad at you.
Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.
Beware though... once you take that red pill you can’t ever go back.
I took said red pill...
I took the red pill as well, thankfully. Before that I ate every lie Caspian has said, he really does have a way with words, so much easier when you go dark after missing every date and scrapping every single way of designing this game.

Has he blamed climate change yet?
Nah, usually it's just his team.
The latest is that he is assuming more of a CEO role... thus can’t be blamed directly for the constant fuckups. CEO... like 15 people. LOL

Summer passed several months no, zero info on the state of pre-elyria, cryptic messages how obviously it's going very well. All work is being done on the website to prepare it for Settlers of Elyria, why be transparent and say Pre-Elyria is delayed when you can keep ppl in the dark and sell more virtual plots and titles. If you've been watching the prior couple of Shinies, I don't think they even want to do them, literally a block of text and 1-2 concept pictures, and people buy this.

I never understood how a concept sketch from a game 2 years late for release was demonstrating “progress”, but some people really eat it up. That is why I keep saying reality is going to hit hard when they can’t just project their hopes and dreams on a blank canvas.

I can't say I have read this thread. The point it's made by some 15 year old kid, that has been apart of the community for around a year. You know it's nothing more than a troll thread.
I will say somethings though. The point the CoE community does at large, laugh at a whole MMORPG website. With I assume thousands of people on it, with many different views. Because of maybe 10 people that call out Caspian bullshit. That's just too dam funny.
I think everyone gets it. Games take years to make, MMOs even longer. But it's the SBS team that keeps putting out the most unrealistic dates. They hype the hell out of people, then wonder why people get pissed when they completely miss everything.
While I have stepped away from the game for a bit. What happened to the auctions of titles? It was meant to happen a few weeks after DSS. We have seen nothing on that front. I checked my duchy discord to see the latest post from SBS. It's all these pointless shinies. Is this still playing to happen this year? I would say not, with it being the end of November and them taking the normal Xmas break.
Sorry what? You were banned because they didn't like you? What shit are you saying now? I have called out, while stirred shit heaps of times in discord. Knowing people that have been banned, you have to really do something stupid to get yourself banned. They always give you a warning to stop doing said stupid shit as well, before banning you as well.
So TLDR: Maybe SBS should get realistic themselves. Then everyone else wouldn't expect things to happen. The fact people are still thinking the game will launch next year. LOL!!

I really have no idea who "SBS" is. Your tl:dr reads weird regardless of whether you mean this site or the team developing CoE. Who should get real, exactly?
Edit: okay, I get it now. "Soulbound Studios". So, you are ageist and lack confidence in the team developing CoE.

I don't lack confidence. I'm 100% sure they will never pull this off. Well they will release something. Just won't be anything like they talk about. That good old saying around Star Citizen "My kids will be able to play this game at least". CoE is worse in my mind. While they maybe working on something, it's taking so long for them to even release Pre-Elyria, which is Pre-Alpha, it's disturbing slow.
DSS isn't even over, since the auction around titles hasn't even happened. I didn't see this event going into next year. Which it's going to, since the event around it, goes for 45 days. I'm honestly curious to know what they are really working on and if it's this event. What is stopping them from releasing it. Or it is more, another Xmas cash grab is stopping them. Either way, the end of year State of Elyria will be interesting. Full of lies no doubt. But interesting to see all the white knights eat it up.

I agree with almost everything you cited except they will release something. All of us have our opinions and I have mine. There is no game here, there is pieces of coding they are working on in very early stages, they will never come close to putting all this together to make an actual mmo. Until i see actual proof, I maintain my stance that Caspian will declare bankruptcy and close the studios down in a couple of years, once this cash dries up.
