what happened?
>>334961110
Tim Schafer is the M Night Shayamalan of video games.
He made 2-3 good games at the beginning of his career and the rest is trash.
>>334961110
The hate started a long time ago, i just kinda ignore them and you should too
Anita
>/v/ already forgot about his last crowdfunded game
what happened?
>>334961110
He revealed himself to be the wank pheasant he truly is some years back and has not been forgiven since.
he triggers gg faggots

He was given full reign without people to tell him no. It's the same reason George Lucas and Ridley Scott are shit now.

And was then a prick about it.

>>334963514
>>334961813
>>334961110
he should only have a fraction of the sway and respect of the people who's work he took credit for, instead he has multiple times more. now that he doesn't have guys like wynnick and gilbert propping him up, he hasn't made anything worth looking at, yet people still give him millions of dollars to shove his thumb up his ass
and then he takes that platform he doesn't deserve, and uses it to bitch about a movement to keep SJW scum from tainting our vidya. seriously fuck the guy multiple times for multiple reasons.
>>334963360
>now
People started to realize how shitty Schafer is about 3 years ago. Broken Age budget mismanagement and release delay, Spacebase DF-9 being abandoned and lying to customers, belittling minorities by making fun of #notyourshield, and blaming Kotick for Brutal Legend's failure.

Kotick's assessment of his fiduciary irresponsibility has been proven beyond any shadow of a doubt the be correct.
Since /v/ isn't truly dogmatic, they reassessed their opinion of Tim given the new evidence available, and made the rational decision.
>>334961110
Kotick was right
Kickstarter was a real eye opener for people who blame publishers for every bad thing in videogames.
>>334963797

Well, he's not wrong.
>>334966575
He's right. Also best gamers is hilarious.

For all sad words of tongue and pen, The saddest are these, 'Kotick was right again'.

Yup now backers get to take on all the risks publishers take (and none of the rewards!), and guess what it kind of fucking sucks.

No businessman ever got far by being fair and a good person. People like Kotick are shitty, but they're right.
>>334961876
>not calling it "the Chan"
Hownewru?
What does he actually do?
How come people give him the credit for Psychonauts being good?
People still whining about Broken Age being split into two parts, even though the second part was free with the first.
>>334966408
Agreed. Once people became the publisher, they were privy to his disregard for working within the time and budget constraints that were given to him. The exact thing that previous publishers had complained about for many years.
I don't hate the guy but after broken age, I wasn't going to give him any money for psychonauts 2 until it showed up in the steam store outside of early access.
>>334966380

Of all the words of tongue and pen, these are the worst "Bobby Kotick is right again"
>>334968015
Why not?
>>334967526
He writes and designs. He's responsible for all the things that made Psychonauts fun, because strip the characters, setting and dialogue out and it's a boring as shit platformer.
The man's got talent, and anyone who denies that is a moron. But he's a classic Peter Principle example; he's a great writer and designer, maybe even a good project leader, but he shouldn't be in overall charge of everything because he sucks at the rest. He can't time manage a team properly, he sure as hell can't manage money, and he's actually kind of a cunt when promoting the game or talking to people who don't fawn over him.
A million false promises.
BTW, any news on Psychonauts?
>>334967526
people give Psychonauts credit for being good because his name was associated with it
>>334961110
he sided with sjws

And he wasn't even in charge of those games.
>>334961110
The guy has been an apologist for media hysteria over video games since 2000. He just did a better job of hiding it with modestly self-aware hypocrisy.
How the fuck can a game maker be "irresponsible" with violent content?
>>334967320
Fresh off the boat, from reddit, kid? heh I remember when I was just like you. Braindead. Lemme give you a tip so you can make it in this cyber sanctuary: never make jokes like that. You got no reputation here, you got no name, you got jackshit here. It's survival of the fittest and you ain't gonna survive long on 4chan by saying stupid jokes that your little hugbox cuntsucking reddit friends would upboat. None of that here. You don't upboat. You don't downboat. This ain't reddit, kid. This is 4chan. We have REAL intellectual discussion, something I don't think you're all that familiar with. You don't like it, you can hit the bricks on over to imgur, you daily show watching son of a bitch. I hope you don't tho. I hope you stay here and learn our ways. Things are different here, unlike any other place that the light of internet pop culture reaches. You can be anything here. Me ? heh, I'm a judge.. this place.... this place has a lot to offer... heh you'll see, kid . . . that is if you can handle it...
>>334966534
Didn't Mr Shitface start his own kickstarter ripoff that allows him to pocket a higher percentage of whatever money is given to a project than kickstarter does?
>>334969095

Psychonauts is still shit. Film at eleven.
WHAT IS THIS TRANS SHIT DOING IN MY VIDEOGAMES? REEEEEEEEEEEEE
Gamergate
he fights against the evils of the toxic gamergate hate mob so he can't be all bad
He was a name associated with great games (Monkey Island, Grim Fandango, Day of the Tentacle etc...) who then made some quirky cult-classic-y games (Psychonauts, Brutal Legend) but then after that he started being promoted personally, like TIM SCHAFER became a celebrity rather than DOUBLE FINE the studio. And then his latest games were boring, crowdfunding exposed his problems with managing stuff, and he kinda went the same way as Peter Molyneux.
>>334965665
Does this help
>>334961110
/v/ told me I can't like psychonauts anymore because of tim schafer so now I don't like it.
He was good when he worked at LucasArts and when he made Psychonauts, that's basically it
>>334965131

This pissed me off. Why couldn't they just keep it a reskinned Zelda game?

>>334961110
I dont know it might have something to do with the enormous amounts of money he keeps taking to make shit games despite owning a fucking mansion
>>334967725
Just like Day of the Tentacle and Full Throttle
Tim Schafer literally released an unfinished game after pocketing most of the huge budget he was given for it, and then insulted his fans asking him what the fuck he was doing.

As far as continuing to visit 4chan, please don't. I liked it better when it was just me.
basically there was a very good reason nobody was giving him any money and the kickstarter backers found that out the hard way
>>334962051
>>334965131
The weirdest thing to me is that for a game about hardcore rock and roll, it feels really tame and cartoony. Also it feels weird that Ozzy is just the upgrade guy. Like he should have been important to the plot.
>>334972951
It should have just been a hack and slash with cool enemies. The RTS and open world aspects were creative, but they kind of sucked.
>>334973859
>Tim calls Kotick a prick and a dick for cancelling his game

>>334974219
>The weirdest thing to me is that for a game about hardcore rock and roll, it feels really tame and cartoony. Also it feels weird that Ozzy is just the upgrade guy. Like he should have been important to the plot.
It's not an outright homage to metal and rock though, it's more like Metalocalypse: glorying in it and also mocking it at the same time.
Rock and Metal music/bands have been both great and ridiculous, often at the same time, since they first appeared, and I felt the tone of the game captured that pretty well.
>>334961110
/v/'s just jealous of Tim's success and influence in the industry.
>>334974093
No, I liked it better when it was just me, you go away
>>334975021
It was never just you. The fact that you weren't here during GG and thought that 4chan would have an "official stance" on anything proves it.

As for the Kickstarter thing, yeah I'd be upset too but I inherently distrust Kickstarter and crowdfunding projects so what happened didn't surprise me in the slightest.
Mildly excited for Psychonauts 2 that everyone else payed for!
>>334975635
>>334973871
Moot banned gamergate threads because he was friends with some of the people GG were criticizing. GG has never harassed anyone nor doxxed anyone.
>>334976184
No, moot banned them because they were filling up the board.
Stop reading ED for serious facts.
>>334976274
They get banned for discussing it positively. Its like in Ghazi: you can discuss GrumpyGats, but you can't be positive about it. Isn't 4chan the same way?
Anti-GG is not a real thing though, its just decent people. There is no anti-KKK.
>>334976184
>GG has never harassed anyone nor doxxed anyone.
Stopped reading there. GumpinGive started to harrass women out of gaming, and expanded to encompass PoC and trans*. That's just the truth and saying otherwise is being willfully ignorant at BEST.

He is basically the George Lucas of video games only poor as fuck. He has some good ideas but ultimately it was the people around him that made his games good. It shows with his newer stuff.

>throw big hollywood bash parties to hang out with REAL GAMERS like Wil Wheaton, Felicia Day and Anita/McIntosh while pissing on the people who give him money
The last thread got deleted because of GG shit, can't we just make fun of Schafer
i don't hate tim schafer but if you compare the writing in the second half of double fine adventure to something like grim fandango, or psychonauts, or even brutal legend, the decline is unmistakeable.
i don't hate him, but i watched the youtube stuff that DF put out, and i would say it looks like he's the one of the least talented people working there, just falling short of their business\finance guy in terms of general incompetence

>>334967861
>wasn't broken age poorly received?
Subjective. I'm not saying people have to love the game. I didn't think it was amazing either. But it bothers me when people try to use it as an excuse to demonize Schafer.
People chose to participate in the Kickstarter knowing what the conditions of it were. They got a game out of it. The end.
>>334976907
Schafer should have retired several years ago. Would have saved his reputation and I'm sure Double fine is running on a soon to be unemployed skeleton crew any way.
didn't he make that fantastic space base df9 game?
Welcome to neo /v/, OP.
