    Pretty incredible how a lawsuit can put a fire under a slimy ass scoundrel to all of a sudden attempt to show something concrete.
    "Yes, yes, we promise, that was the plan all along".
    Next in CoE's store, a vial of Caspien's sweat from being overworked...guess you get out of shape after sitting on millions of dollars and do absolutely nothing but run your mouth.

    "Kingdoms of Elyria Management Sim" This is like Lance Armstrong releasing a "How to Stay Clean Management Sim". KoE and good management don't go together so hopefully the word management won't be in the title. :)

    "The full video is up on the Chronicles of Elyria YouTube channel, and as with previous videos, comments on the latest episode are turned off." I wonder why?

    This "the two actually work in tandem" sounds like the same lie we got from Daybreak with Everquest Next and Landmark.

    This is the studio that started developing a Voxel version of the game which had no effect on the development cycles of CoE. When it comes to Crowd Funded MMOs, the entire studio could go to the Moon for a month and that would have no effect on development cycles.

    "We"... Nice try, but I don't think anyone believes anyone other than Jerermy is left working on the game.

    I think Jerkromy only read the preface though, as he tried to check out with his 8 million, which first sentence of chapter one is to never end the scam.

    So basically, they're taking whatever they have working and releasing it so that they can say that they released a game like they promised?

    The stench of desperation is real.  I suppose he got to the conclusion he is not great prison material, which is probably the most honest thing that ever crossed his mind.

    This was worth a laugh, only because I never gave them any money.

    I like the part where people take a risk on a stupid project and donate 20 bucks then demand blood. I also like the fact this kid who runs the show has no idea what he is doing. Like not even aware of how the whole issue is presented. Still..Lol to people whining about their backer funds. Literally the only ones who care about this story are in fact said backers. The rest of it is just content to watch with popcorn. He's delivering the game unfinished so he can avoid you monsters calling for fed time on your 20 dollar backing lol.. It's a trashy looking game made by some doof who got way too ahead of himself. And also should never manage anyone again.

    Well technically if I have my history right they:

    Created a supposed pen and paper version to make sure they got the mechanics right
    Created a MUD version
    Created a Voxel version
    Created a "PreElyria" version

    And remember, all of that was supposed to SAVE money and speed up development.

    Anyone who gives this guy a single PENNY deserves what they get. The Kickstarter people can maybe be excused for believing him and his unrealistic promises, but now? You give this guy anything and it's 100% on you.

    I wish this site would refrain from posting 'news' from this particular effort.  This will not result in a game of any form or fashion, and perpetuating this scam only increases the likelihood that other people will buy into this, costing other people money.  It does not deserve the attention of this site.  This site should treat this development project, the supposed company behind it and the principal operator as non-entities.

    I thought the same thing at first but the comments from the community add weight to the moronic nature of this business. I have to admit when I am looking for information on a game, I often head to the comment section first to see the general reaction.

    Good point as i do too. When i was younger (kid) i traveled a lot with fam, we pretty much always flew Eastern Airlines... all the time.

    One thing which always stuck with me was that Eastern planes were falling out of the sky, literally, so many and I probably said something like "i guess they are going to go out of business cause no one will fly with them anymore" only to hear as i was informed that their sales were never higher? and that any news is good news when it comes to advertising.

    I look at comments and player feedback, too.  But there are those that don't, and some number of those will eventually be asked to fund this project again.  They will be hurt, like so many others before.  'News' (read: press releases) from this company aren't things this site should be covering.

    (Even if snow cone franchises spring up in hell and this mess actually turns into a released game, it probably won't be a game this site's members would likely be interested in).

    (Did anyone else think that the 'footage' in the video could likely have come from almost any video tool thrown together by a graphic arts student?  It certainly did to me.)

    Ya, people, naive and dumb, will get burned thats a fact but smart people will take a min and read the comments. It sad to see. It does raise the question on if or how you report on stuff like this.

    Umm... he raised almost $8M if I recall right.   People spent tens of thousand of dollars on his made up promises.

    People don't remember specific details, as i mentioned above all they remember is Easter Airlines, honey lets go somewhere, ok what airline? i dunno i heard Eastern is pretty good because its been blasted into their head from horrific front page news and radio/tv news at the time.

    So it's free advertising, people will remember the name "Chronicles of Elyria" but will not remember the specifics so it comes out and let's hypothetically theorize a game did come out, peeps will read CoE the game or whatever and think oh yeah i heard of that, lets get it as it is in memory, why it's there is of no understanding, it's just familiar.

    Like Facebook (which f me seriously thinking of moving to Australia) i mean, thank you, an entire country free of that trash that's heaven my friends. So yeah anything on facebook is news right, the real deal, the largest cess pool to ever exist.

    Look at the situation, it'll probably drive Facebook stock up with all the free advertising. Also look at the pompous attitude of Facebook too right, take note, they are such fucking self entitled little children, that  they feel like they can just Ban an entire country to teach them a lesson to not mess with Facebook. My gawd the arrogance and you (as in not you, anyone) trust them with your information? Yikes!

    It's entirely too easy to rely on words to make promises; delivering on those promises is another thing, however.
