    This doesn't add up. On one hand they say they want to take their time. On the other they say they're funded for up to 5 years of they need it. If they need it?!? You can bet your ass they're going to need it, and probably then some. Already sounds like folks have their heads in the clouds.

    Call me when you have something playable.

    "Believer is taking its time, with a financial plan that could keep them funded for up to five years if they need that long, but they’re looking to reveal their work much sooner."

    So, they've got about half of the funding they really need since the lead time on a project like this is likely 10 years plus.

    I'm definitely not a "believer" at this point.

    But I have stayed at a Holiday Inn Express.

    Yeah, I see this disconnect as either gross incompetence or...

    "With projects like Edgerunners, the acclaimed anime based on Cyberpunk 2077, and adaptations like League of Legends’ own animated spinoff, Arcane, and even EVE Online comic books show the potential for storytelling within a wider franchise. "

    To be fair, those were storytelling within a wider, well-established franchise. This sounds closer to Defiance which didn't last too long if I recall (the show. I think the game at least lasted a while). I get that this may not be intended to correlate as closely as Defiance the game and show were supposed to, but I feel they'd be better served focusing on doing one thing well and expanding from there.

    "building something with social players in mind, emphasize playing with friends, and offers lots of room for more casual players without diminishing the experience."

    There is no recognition of the fact that social and solo do not go together, those who put the time in and casual do not go together, in fact the greater one is favoured the less the other is favoured.

    Very early days but this is looking like a MMORPG for every man and as we know in the modern era they have so far gone only one way. They pander too much to casual solos and as the years roll by (often under a mask of QoL changes) they pander even more to that side of the player base.
