There's a conspicuous lack of them in this comment section given the flood that was their FIG. I just noticed they're deleting comments about the store that shall not be named. Behind the scenes there's a rather gross behavior that - to me at least - just looks like it's taking advantage of that exact community, so let's dive a bit deeper.Ģ) Gearbox deleting YouTube comments related to Epic exclusivity? Developed by Blackbird Interactive and published by Gearbox, this return is a subject of a lot of excitement for the community.īut not all is as it seems. Homeworld 3 was announced at PAX West last week, something of a surprise for fans of the series. They need to put the money where their mouth is and promise no exclusivity deals.ġ) HOMEWORLD 3 - A TWO-FACED ANNOUNCEMENT? (Watch for the Bait & Switch):
Gearbox CEO/Randy Pitchford is one of game industry’s most controversial figure and that mean BBI/Gearbox has to work HARD to earn trust. Are you shilling for Gearbox or just fail to understand that crowdfunding relies heavily upon trust? Silencing/ignoring dissent from steam/hw fans make this crowdfunding looks very shady.Īs for fans/investors saying exclusivity comments is toxicity. Over 1/3 of FIG comments are related to exclusivity but that did not stop Gearbox from trying to censor/restrict those on FIG + YouTube (damage control?). Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak) is pretty alarming. Not even any mention of steam keys for the $60 Reward Bundle (Homeworld Remastered Collection + They still refuse to answer any questions related to exclusivity and as a result lost thousands of dollars. Gearbox changed FIG posting rules after they don't like the comments (see below) So Gearbox/BBI say's they want crowdfunding feedback from fans/investors but why charge $50 money for it? Some red flags related to Gearbox shady business practices: Get a new Gearbox CEO and promise no exclusivity.
The current gearbox CEO is very biased against steam. That includes choosing the right publisher. No steam promise is non-acceptable.Ĭrowdfunding relies heavily on trust and transparency. My personal take on crowdfunding this game:Īs one old school fan I love Homeworld and BBI.īut I won't give Randy Pitchford (Gearbox CEO) any crowdfunding money especially not with all the EGS exclusivity + Shenmue 3 crowdfunding BS. I love Homeworld 1&2 but i don't trust Gearbox. This is your classical "we won't say it's EGS exclusive now, since we want your backing money" however, since it's Gearbox and Randy, it's almost certain it will be.

They specifically DON'T mention what platforms they'll be launching the game on, only that i'll be PC with the excuse it's too far off to be determined. With our partners at Fig, we can give fans both new and grizzled a chance to fuel and profit from Homeworld 3's success.īe careful anyone thinking of backing this.
