What do you guys think about Mr. Derek Smart, the legendary PC game developer of the 90's? I know he fell off radar after the glory days of the 90's. Can he make a comeback?
>>339843983
he looks black.
more like derek dumb
is he the guy eternally butthurt over star citizen?
>>339843983
I'm still playing Derek Smarts Desktop Commander to this day.
>>339845210
There is no butthurt over there. Derek was scammed out of money by people who were trying to ride his coattails into fame and had to take action to protect himself.
>>339845335
That joke was never funny. I'd like to see the games the guy who made that video made himself. Oh wait, he probably couldn't even program his air conditioner

wasn't he only legendary for putting out utter unplayable broken crap?
>>339843983
hes just a guy desperately clinging on to relevancy.
>>339844960
He is. Why do you think he missed so many deadlines and held off finishing his game so much?
I'm still waiting for that Extinction Level Event where Star Citizen goes completely belly up and Chris runs out with the money
It was meant to happen a couple months ago. Any day now, I guess
Is star citizen a scam?
Are its backers cultists?
Here's the thing: Star Citizen has no financial means to finish the project they've promised and Derek Smart called this out last year. That's all.
>>339847708
Remember when Derek's "MMO" got taken off Steam for being a barren, unplayable piece of shit?
>>339848207
I guess if anyone knows about train wrecks, it would certainly be him.
>>339848306
No because that didn't happen. What happened was that Mr. Smart pulled the game from Steam because trolls were bombarding his product with false reviews and harassment. Since Valve is unwilling or unable to moderate the steam "community", Mr. Smart had no alternative but to take his game to a more mature provider.
Mr. Smart said this on the subject,
"“Steam has become too big for Valve to be able to effectively police every aspect of it and where anti-social misfits reside. They know this, the Steam community knows this, and we the developers and publishers, know this.”"
He also suffers from a personality disorder/mental illness. He's also a goon and his largest fans are goons.
>>339848758
He didn't ask for money for a dream, if that means anything. He did an early Access game, but that's different than Star Citizen kickstarter.
i heard if you say his name 3 times a lawsuit will appear
>>339848906
Whatever you say, Derek.
>>339849563
Wait, you are accusing me of being Derek Smart just because I put the facts of what happened in place instead of going along with whatever narrative the trolls and haters try to push ?
Get over it, Derek Smart has many fans and I'm one of them. Mr. Smart would never waste his time on a Chan forum so in a way it's an honor for you to call me Derek Smart, but it is unfortunately not true.
He cracked down Robertstown and redpilled some inhabitants.
>>339849748
>Derek Smart has many fans
Really? I like a few of his games myself, but I never really see anyone discuss his stuff.
still no release date for anything regarding star citizen and every piece of content from star citizen looks like complete dog shit so...
>>339849748
You must think very lowly of yourself if you think going to /v/ is a waste of time above devs. What are you even here for?
>>339843983
He was right about Star Citizen.
But everybody with a working brain came to the conclusion that Star Citizen was a scam and will never be finished.
DEREK SMART'S DESKTOP COMMANDER
>>339849748
No, we hate you because you make shit games, Derek. Regardless of what happens with Star Citizen, you are a no-talent hack that can't finish your own games. You rage and cry when you get negative reviews, which, based on your current level of programming skill, are very much deserved. Either learn how to deal with criticism and learn from it, or shut the fuck up and go away.
>>339843983

>>339843983
He's a raging narcissistic faggot who is also as you say utterly irrelevant now. Thank fuck.
>Can he make a comeback?
What, theoretically? Sure, it's "easy" all he'd have to do is actually release some really amazing vidya that blew everyone away and he'd be back. Simple as that.
But right now all he's got is the same old boring snark, worthless opinions, unbacked bragging and endless (YOU) which we had plenty of ages ago. He's going to actually need to produce something of substance for anyone to care again.
If he does then that's that. But I'm not holding my breath.

If he sees someone "attacking" him, he will join any forum in order to defend himself. He is that autistic. Pretty sure he's been on /v/ more than a few times as well.

Enough with the preposterous lies, that's actually approaching slander of Mr. Smart and 4chan could be sued! He did not rape and murder a girl in 1990, he raped most of a petting zoo, and none of the animals died. In fact most of them didn't even notice, they thought it was just the vet taking their temperature with a thin thermometer during a checkup.

Did I trigger you enough for you to go on a tirade about your manjawed waifu simply by questioning your tastes a bit? I'm so sorry. You're free to like whatever you want and I had no idea that this was such an upsetting topic for you. I wish you the best of luck despite your condition.
At the same time, however, your obvious racism towards asians is both triggering and ignorant, so I'd prefer you cut that out. I really don't see how you'd think Tracer is an anime character just because she has a certain face shape. Is Big Boss not a anime character just because he doesn't have big eyes?
>>339853319
What if they're Chinese American?
>>339853548
Ah, the "ur triggerd" defense. The unfortunate evolution of the already bad "umad" defense.
No, I am not triggered. Nor am I mad. I am perfectly calm, and perfectly right.
Your weeb is showing even more now, might want to cover it with something, people are laughing.
Star Citizen may very well turn out to be a fiasco if it isn't already, who knows. I haven't kept up on it completely.
But Derek Smart is loud and obnoxious, frequently makes deceitful or misleading statements to perpetuate his agenda (which it should be clear, is firmly rooted in butthurt). He is right about some things but wrong about a lot more, and he's mostly just a loud asshole at this point.
Sucks.

Oh lord are these real IRC excerpts?
As a space sim fan, I actually enioyed BC3K a lot. I thought it was better than wing commander privateer. It was buggy and unfinished, yes, but so was daggerfall, and I enjoyed that a lot too, despite the UI. Once you get past rhe clunkiness of certain parts, it is a quite good and very ambitious game.
I haven't played any other derek smart titles but he did any decent job with bc3k, and IIRC didn't want to release it unfinished.
I played the DOS version, btw, not the win95 version 2.0 that came out a couple years later.
So desu, I only have one of his games, apparently one of the best ones, and I enjoyed it despite it being flawed.
I don't have too much of an opinion on him as a person.
>>339848906
This seems like a likely story. This happened.
Why is Chris Roberts such an incompetent manchild?

Yep, those are real and not even the worst things he's typed.
I fully agree with his reasoning to a point --he SHOULD be able to be as much of a buttmunch as he wants if he does his job well (that part can be debated). But in the modern world where everyone gets butthurt about anything (including him) that kind of nonsense doesn't help you at all and you would think he knows better.
He also enjoys repeating shit about freedom of speech, which doesn't mean shit and certainly doesn't mean freedom from consequences. People ARE really shitty about him and most of those people don't know what they're talking about, but he's just as big of a douche. I know if i was a bigwhig i'd cut ties with him as it's just easier and it's not like literally insane game devs are in short supply.

He made his case, demonstrated how SC is a scam, how they let their own deadlines miss, and it's not surprising hardcore SC fans are are preparing for a 2017 or 2020 release, if funds permit, that is.
Derek Smart gained a lot of fame and certainly I am inclined to buy his future games, just because he's a honest person. It's my money so who cares, :)
I will, however, pursue the chargeback from empty claims of another developer, who should not be named here, because he sold me hot air and not some product.
>>339866420
there's no denying Roberts overpromised and will most likely under deliver
I don't really give a shit at this point, I actually made profit on the game selling off my LTI Aurora to some fucktard on leddit
if I get a decent space sim at the end of this then I'll be happy
in any case, Derek Smart is a failure and I suspect we'll be hearing news of his suicide at some point during the next few years
