probably but she took up the name and used it in the gamergate video herself

Now everyone hates Tim Schafer:

I have to say, this one made me chuckle:

Schafer lost all credibility when he somehow managed to run out of money when he was given more than eight times the funding he asked for. On a f'ing point & click adventure. That's the sort of thing two people, a programer and an artist, could make with no budget in less than half a year.

He knows his reputation with gamers is down the drain, and now he's trying to suck up to the SJWs so maybe they will toss a coin or two at him. He sure is not getting any money from customers anymore, and I doubt any corporation would want to deal with him either.

Personally its this event that makes me realize that everyone. Both ProGGers and AntiGGers should just drop this shit show that is Gamergate just fucking make and play goddamn games already.

I find it hilarious that guys like MundaneMatt said every gamer is offended by Tim Schafer's act when in realitiy some probably does not give a shit like me. And I bought Grim Fandango yesterday. Because I don't care what TIm Schafer thinks. I just want to play his game.

Like Mel Gibson. I don't care if personally he is an anti-semite or racist in general. I like his movie Braveheart and Apocalypto. And is sad that he won't be making movies anymore. He was the David Lean of the 21st century his 3 movies had this big epic scope.

also i found this article when well... I admit i was googling to see whether GabeN was in any way involved (and i'm hoping neutral).

(up to now, nothing has come up aside from gabe not bending over to sjw pressure surrounding hatred)

Just about everyone has run out of money with early access/ kickstarter. Not defending it I see it as one big scam that only benefits the makers while fucking the consumers.


Not even remotely close on what it takes to take old source material and upgrade it all and keep the content as is and to try to get it all to work on multiple platforms. You are are vastly under estimating what it takes to make a game let alone take source material from the 90's.


I don't have anything bad to say about the guy? He made grim fandango and I like grim fandango? Did I miss something he has done?

Gabe is a smart businessman, even if he's inclined either way he'll never show it.

But over $3 million dollars to make your game? This wasn't an ordinary Kickstarter/Early Access thing...

I was talking about Broken Age, or Double Fine Adventure as it was called back then. Double Fine asked for 400,000$ and got more than eight times the amount. And yet they ran out of money and had to sell half the game to get income to complete it. That is some major incompetence.

Grid Fandango is a different case, they did not ask for any money beforehand, it's a finished product and people can judge what they pay for.

Which is really the way it should be. Just do your job properly and don't engage in either side. The whole reason why GamerGate started in the first place is because people were not doing their job properly.

Not saying otherwise. =p

Have you seen the current state of kickstarted/early access games? *coughpetermolynuexcough*

There are people outright abusing it. 3 mill seems like a tiny budget in this day and age.
I thought you were talking about grim fandango. My bad.

You do realize that was the largest Kickstarter in its history at the time, right?
