It's not like the game is going to be finished anyways. Dude's getting shitload of money from his patrons while doing the bare minimum to make it look like he's actually working on his game and in fact he wastes his time making videos, streaming shit on twitch and watching chineese cartoons. Anyone who actually was involved in game/software development can see that there was hardly any progress done IN TWO FUCKING YEARS. This is vaporware in it's finest form.

Wow that's gay. Still from his perspective if he really want to do it this way then yea making a video like this is a valid option since the only people who will hate it or people who prob won't be buying his game anyway and that people who appreciate the video will help to not spam and tell others to not spam effectively reducing spam some.

I mean at the same time someone could get obscenely butthurt and spam his email even more.

tl;dr it doesn't really matter lol. The same way he may come off as getting butthurt for no reason, /v/ is doing the same thing. Basically we should just meme it up.

1. This guy sounds autistic as fuck.
2. Why doesn't he just ignore the emails? If he was smart and knew it was getting a lot of attention but still needed help and feedback, he should've created separate email accounts and just ignored all the emails sent to the wrong addresses. Any smart dev knows how to properly allocate their time, and this guy must be retarded if he thinks he should be spending 60+ hours a week just rummaging through pointless emails. I'm honestly having trouble understanding why anyone with half a brain would this kind of crappy time management makes sense.

In Dmc's defense, they did listen to the fans a little, they were just being tsundares about it.

Didn't save the game from mediocrity, though.
