The first post I made I did not give enough information. The second time I posted I did, and I stick by the second post. My third post and this fourth one are both directly consistent with that one, and in the second one I said that I needed to change the first one.
So no, there is no wild backpedaling. And I will continue to stick by the second post. Because it started out "I need to add a little to that I guess", which directly responding to you says you were right about my first post being too specific and ignoring some things.
I said exactly what I meant in my 2nd and 3rd posts. Everything you have said in response after the first time is based on a bad assumption and is, probably through a miscommunication at this point, putting words in my mouth I didn't say.
Its not a matter of your first post needing "have a little added" the first post was completely something different than the following ones. See above where I quoted the two lines from your first post that are you making an absolute statement. Then in the following posts you come in and backpeddle to get away from those absolute statements. You didnt come in and say "I dislike when trailers dont have gameplay because I want to see what I'm buying" and then later correct it to say "What I mean is I dislike when a game shows no gameplay footage at all for the length of their ad campaign making it hard to know what you're getting". You came in with the absolute statement of "I no longer pay attention to trailers without gameplay footage." and "I don't care about the movie having absolutely no relevant content to the game but designed to trick people into wanting the game.". Both are statements that cut and dry, nothing to misinterpret. So no, its not a matter of misunderstanding what you said... thats what I'm telling you that you need to work on because its a trend of yours across the board. You're obviously capable of fixing said trend, so lets work on that. Cool? Cool.
Also... did you have examples of games that had an ad campaign featuring zero gameplay footage?
Coming April 1st so It's probably an April fool's joke. Maybe?
@Mjack: Stop saying back on topic. For the love of cats, just stop.
No, the game is very much a thing. It's in alpha and full of bugs, but everyone loves the bugs so they're leaving them in there. Its on Steam and theres a ton of people that already have it and are doing gameplay videos of them having them.
Also, agreed. That smile needs to disappear. In fact most of the time people use it it's used as a 'well this conversation is quickly proving me wrong, lets get back to topic guys' and not because the thread is actually of topic.
