How does he get away with it?

Maybe you should have listened to Bobby Kotick when he told you Tim Scammer is an incompetent fuckhead who is also a pathological liar.

I paid $15 for Broken Age and I felt that was JUST worth it. If I paid more I would have been pissed though. Also the fact he had to break it up into two installments is pathetic. Will pirate this though to see how much worse it will be from the original.

Why the fuck is everyone so high on Psychonauts? It was good, but it wasn't that good. I like Overboard, but I'm not going to hand over £200 for a fucking remake of it.
>>
>>319212105
reddit-fags love schafer, therefore they have hyped his flop of a game "psychonauts" because it's one of those games "most people hadn't heard of", because it was a financial failure at launch.
>>
>2 people paid $10,000 to go camping with Tim
>>
>>319212343
Funfact: Tim is at fault for the most part as to why Psychonauts lost Microsoft as it's publisher.
>>
>>319212105
People like having sequels to "good" things. It's why I backed the Shantae kickstarter. I wish Tim wasn't such a hack with money so I could actually back Psychonauts 2. I'll wait.
>>
Reminder that everyone at Lucasarts hated Schafer.
Look at the credit roll for Star Wars Episode 1 Racer.

>>319209527
easily. /v/'s opinion doesn't matter in the real world and most of the anti-Schafer memes are either exaggerations (the Broken Age stuff) or misinformation like the OP. there was always supposed to be a 40 day period. it was just a bug on the website before. as if adding 4-5 more days is going to make a huge difference when it's already more than 50% funded. kek

Schafer internet defense force is among us!

You know the website is run by a Double Fine employee, right?

The man couldn't make a point and click adventure with almost 10x the original goal. Not to mention all the SpaceBase shit.

Last I checked, Broken Age was a point-and-click adventure game released to solid reviews. It may not have been 10/10, but it was delivered as promised.
>>
>>319218454
It was delivered in two parts because he ran out of money. I'm not saying the game is bad I'm saying he not exactly the most savvy person ever with his money.

I have never played Psychonauts and I don't know who this guy is.

A campaign for Psychonauts 2, huh?

I'm really interested in playing that, but holy shit, by now you'd think DF/Schafer would just bow to publishers again. What a racket.

Schafer actually was once one of my big gaming idols, but god damn if I don't care for anything he's done in and outside of games for years. YEARS.
>>
>>319221039
>I'm really interested in playing that
wait for release, then pirate and be disappointed for free.
>>
>>319219980
He's still a dumb asshole, even if he was right one time.
Still the real problem isn't really Schafer, it's the retarded fans that still give money to him.
>>
>>319209527
Because the crowdfunding platform belongs to his friends.

>Not letting other stupid people fund games, waiting till release and then wait a bit more to see if it's actually gets good feedback from trusted sources before buying

It is suppose to be used for upstarts that are living off bread and water while trying to release a game/product, not the current trend of cashing in on brand recognition.

>bugs.

That is not acceptable when money is being exchanged. Tim being an butthead is one thing, but doing that with money is fraud or thievery.

5 years ago I would've thrown money at this.

Why does this shit head still need to crowd fund his games? Clearly his previous games have not been successful enough to support Double Fine as a company. Why do people still fall for this?
>>
>>319223448
>he paid the golden price
>>
>>319223448
I love when people try and use cars/houses/groceries as a good comparison for pirating. Something digital that can be copied indefinitely is not equal to limited physical goods.

Fact is a person that pirates a game was never a 100% sale but the person that stole the apple was.
>>
>>319209527
>How does he get away with it?
Because he's a partial owner of the fig website
>>
>>319217045
goes from 40 to 50.
>there was always supposed to be a 50 day period.

Good question! Below is an approximation on how the investment will perform for every $500 invested*:

$2.50 for every $68,376 in adj. gross revenue until $13.33M; and
After that, $1 for every $68,376 in adj. gross revenue.

Invested: $500
Units Sold: 693,638
Avg Wholesale: $21.00
Est. Deductions: 2.60%
Adj. Gross: $14,188,036
Return: $500

I am laughing so hard right now

>>319224475
yet the guy who worked for you digital good has to somehow pay for his shit, too
