So now that the Blackroom has become the Unbacked room, will Romero sell all his gas station memorabilia just to make ends meat? For those who don't know, Blackroom is officially cancelled.

>>336024060
Don't do that. Don't do that to John Romero's hair.
It was obvious it's not getting support because they really didn't have anything to actually back up. Who would just sell out money because of the name... It embarrases me to think that he should fucking know better.

the kickstarter is on hold because romero wants to put in a game demo
>>336024060
it's "ends meet" not "meat"
they're putting out a demo, though?

>>336025407
I thought the Doom levels were enough proof to show he still "got it"
Unfortunately, I think John Romero isnt a big "celeb" like Tim Schafer and cant get the money from his fans.
Mike Wilson is doing completely fucking fine, why cant they just get Devolver to fund their game?

Let's discuss the game, shall we?
>Well balanced weapons are an important part of every FPS, and they are a key focus for this game. In addition to the classic weapons you expect from an FPS, BLACKROOM features weapons with some incredible abilities and destructive potential. Here are some of the exciting weapons you will find in BLACKROOM.
>GLOXEL: Your basic handgun that traces a hoxelray straight through your target. Light damage.
>HOXSAW: Shoots a wide, blurry beam of hoxelight out to 10 feet in front of it and is deadly while it’s on. Similar to a chainsaw made of light. Time-based use.
>RECODE: Shoots a canister of AI up to 30 feet away. When it explodes, it will force any hit by it to turn on their nearest AI friend.
>HOXELIGHT: Shoots a hoxelbeam that stays in the air for 10 seconds before disappearing. Deadly to the touch the entire time.
>BLACKHOLE BOMB: Create a micro-singularity in a room, pulling everything into it within a radius for 10 seconds.

Using the Boxel to Interact with the Environment
He'll put the game back up and I'll suck it down. There's nothing you shitposters can do about it.

Close-Up of Boxel
>>336027543

/v/ actually works this way.
>>336025540
How can you be so stupid, anon.
>>336027603
>One of the unique features of BLACKROOM is that in addition to an arsenal of lethal weapons, you also have the Boxel, a device that lets you alter the reality of BLACKROOM itself. Initially intended as a debug tool for developers and testers of BLACKROOM, the Boxel gives you a variety of tools to give you an edge against your opponents. Some examples of the Boxel in action are below:
>•Temporarily freeze time in the simulation
>•Glimpse through walls
>•Open locked doors and other obstacles
>•Interact with objects in your environment (such as the explosive barrel above)
>•Modify weather and atmosphere
>•Display important information about your environment
>•Trigger audio “developer diaries” with clues about hidden areas in the level
>Primarily intended for the single-player campaign, the Boxel will have some limited use in multiplayer as well. The Boxel isn’t a replacement for a good weapon, but using them both in conjunction, you’ll truly be able to master the action-packed challenges and mysteries you encounter in BLACKROOM.

The problem is there's so many shooters no one gives a fuck about a so classic shooter and his concept isn't anything special.
>>336028121
>>336028226
or I should say his concept is really stupid shit, should just announce Daikatana 2
>>336028226
It was put on hold because Romero wants a demo out, not because people were not backing it, why is this concept so hard to grasp for fags like you.

>>336029084
Yeah, 100k in 3 days must be so low amirite.
>>336029213
Hey relax, take a chill pill dude, I'm not the one who gets triggered by which browser other people use, no need to get so ass devastated about it.
>>336029343
yes that's low
else he wouldn't cancel it you retarded dipshit if he would see he is getting enough money without a demo
>>336029343
other games have had 700k funded within a day.
So, do you think there will be Wild West weapons?
>>336029856
he said time period weapons
>>336029505
>you retarded dipshit
Hey, what the fuck is your problem, if you can't have a proper discussion then don't even bother replying if you're going to be like that, what makes you think your argument suddenly becomes relevant by insulting? Were you dropped as a baby or something? Because that's a really stupid logic.
>>336029790
You know that most of those backings are made by the company themselves to make it look like people want them, right? Specially the Shenmue 3 one. I hope you're not too blinded about all this kickstarter shit to not see simple stuff like this.
>>336029432
>le moral highground approach
yeah whatever, you're an idiot for using IE
>>336030428
I'm not even the faggot posting the pictures lmao, it's you against the world fag. IE 6 is a meme and you're a fag for thinking it will forever be bad, go try IE 9 and beyond that one and do acid3 tests and all that shit, you just say it's bad because it's a meme.

>>336029343
That actually is low when you want 700k. The last day it had dropped to only 5k. It would've dropped further and maybe picked up at the end slightly but I didn't expect it to be over 300k.

>>336027258
>Let's discuss the game, shall we?
THERE IS NO GAME TO DISCUSS, JUST IDEAS
>>336025170
You know this is the second kickstarter he tried? The first one had a 5 minute video where all they said was "hardcore, old school rpg" about three dozen times and expected money from people.
>>336031921
Ok, so let's discuss the ideas.
>>336032260
Fine, i can see what Romero wants to do, but it doesn't seem like you can do anything new that other AAA dev's FPS games haven't done already
>>336032178
not technically correct.
his previous one was his wife and an ex-colleague who had done work on Wizardry, trying to redo that.
He did appear as a "look Romero endorses his wife" idiocy
>>336025170
>Who would just sell out money because of the name...
MN9
Star Citizen
Oculus
>>336031635
He's doing the best move he can with the results he witnessed, you want him to keep on going with the kickstarter and get even less money? Don't reply to me if you can't make proper use of your brain.
it's not canceled you idiots, the kickstarter is on hold until they have a demo completed
![2136167-3[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/eubHcAq.jpg "2136167-3[1].jpg")
>>336029163
You know full well that it would.
>>336032982
>the kickstarter is on hold
>until they have a demo completed
so cancelled
>>336033147
uh no?
Cancelled implies that they are no longer making the game
>>336032982
They probably realised that they actually need to do something if they want to earn the public's trust
They got laughed at for hosting a stream that was nothing but a brainstorm, i hope people learn not to back anything without a playable demo anymore
>>336032632
Star Citizen had some actual footage to show.
>>336024629
>make an epic misinformation post
>call others 14
Has Carmack said anything about what's going on?
>>336033265
the thing is, that's how it works for literally every other financing method other than kickstarter.
When someone pitches a new game to sony or someone, they don't walk in with a fully functioning demo. They walk in with an idea and a plan. You need money to make the demo.
>>336030758
No, I say it's bad because IE has been shit since the 90's and I don't trust Microsoft to package windows with a secure browser
>>336031421
I love windows 7 actually. But I won't touch IE
>>336032982
it's cancelled as much as a kickstarter can be.
Until they restart it, it's cancelled.
How many companies have gone "er, it's delayed a bit" and then the project was never heard of again.
>>336033681
>secure browser
Makes me think you're one of those guys who really use incognito mode and thinks he's not getting tracked. Every browser does it, what makes you think they don't?
>>336033807
So the new Zelda game is canceled?
>>336033502
the proper Carmack (john) said he has nothing to do with the project
the other Carmack (Adrian) is probably trying not to kill, kill, and kill again
>>336033948
That's different. It's fucking nintendo, not some fucking kickstarter. We have tons of proof the game is coming out and is being actively worked on.
>>336034030
Oh, so you're saying that it's OK when Nintendo does it. Got it.
>Blackroom
I've never even heard of it.
Was it just announced or something?
>>336033948
Nintendo hasn't quite pulled a "oh, er, we didn't know what people wanted so, we're going back to develop the game more than a bunch of flowery begging"
>>336034120
This is good stuff
>>336033825
I'm guessing he's more of those guys who don't like having 100s of unpatched security bugs in his browser while MS plays eternal catch up

fuck that, there's more to gameplay than just a good level design, unless he plans to sell me fucking DOOM again then I want to see gameplay of Blackroom.

>big names uses kickstarter
Like who? Igarashi? Schaffer?
>>336030876
>allowed to pull it early and try again later
you can try as many times as you like
that guy doing the cybermatrix console tried to kickstart it 5 times or something
>>336024060
I had a dream last night that there would be a Matrix 4. All of the actors would be back, but it would have new, cheaper behind the scenes people. This would lead to a script that makes no sense and the palette to be completely washed out and full of bloom like the slomo elf scenes in lotr because the cinematography guy has no idea what he is doing. Also, because (in my dream) Keanu Reeves is balding, he has to wear a wig. A wig that looks exactly like the hair in the op's pic.

Yeah yeah, I'm pretty sure your le meme arrows have more power than Romero in the videogame industry.
>>336034981
That's amazing.
>>336024060
They didn't want to be another MN9 disaster, they realized a little late that they need a proof of concept, hence why they're working on a demo first. At least Yooka Laylee had some early footage.
>>336026962
Imagine if diakatana really was everything we wanted and more. Smacktalking would still be around and normalfags that beg for reports just get pooperblasted
>>336043418
Daikatana was good, the problem is that it took too long, it came too late and there were better stuff in the market already.
>>336024060
in the thumbnail he looks like he is keking
>>336042945
Yeah, basically. Failed troll OP has forgotten that there is truth to everything, and that Carmack and Romero have been MORE THAN willing to explain why they're cancelling.
OP, I know you know why, and you must know at this point /v/ knows to. So to continue is just wasting your time.
Unless your agenda is to delegitimize the entire system because your supported project failed. Butthurt cunt.
>>336029343
Considering the setup I think he expected easy funding with a few stretch goals. That is the setup you see most of the time. People try to set the goal at the absolute minimum they need to put together a functioning stripped game and then use the stretch money to add some meat with bonus features.
>>336043575
Basically. it had a lot of great ideas behind it, and if it had been released when he planned it to [~1998], it would have been revolutionary and respected.
But all the delays and bullshit happened due to his poor management and it got left in obscurity because actual quality was available by then.
Romero isn't a bad game director overall, but he has definitely time and time again overrated his ability and underestimated everyone else's.
>>336043575
max payne got delayed a lot but ended up good while being made on a tiny scale. Diakatana was made in a penthouse office in a top location in Dallas with infinite money and was an escort mission with broken AI.
It was in no way good. It is okay, as in, a first attempt game by a new dev.
>>336044178
Broken AI sounds like stuff that could be fixed in a future patch, anybody knows why this never happened?
>>336044324
Because the game was a massive letdown. Ion storm was disintegrating because of money problems, not delivering problems and people being disconnected from reality problems.
>>336044324
Because the studio was dissolved and the publisher never gave a rats' ass beyond releasing the game? Idiots at Eidos thought they could finance anything by Romero and get back double, tripple that.
>>336044608
>Idiots at Eidos
everyone thought that. Eidos just won the bid to finance Romero's epic game.

In what world is cancelling your kickstarter a good thing?
If he was anywhere near a complete demo, don't you think he'd wait for that before starting to beg for money?
He's got nothing, and everyone knows
>>336047161
In the world where everyone wants him to make a good game yet they don't fully trust him to give their money away. This behaviour seems quite contradictory but Romero is doing what he can in this situation.
this faggot again
