Paprium: The Official Thread Mk 2

[Mad Moham]

the fairest decision would be ban until release.

That'll be a permaban then?

[matteus]

Ships tomorrow!

Has to be talking bs as they'd confirm everyone's address before doing that

[cleeg]

You can tell he's talking BS because he's typed a post.

I was speaking to GrooveMaster303 and I'm slightly concerned about the soundtrack. Fonz had told him he might get someone in to redo the voice samples. Doesn't sound a big deal you might say! Well Fonz always has a tendency to go with what he thinks sounds and looks right. With graphics that's fine but with other things such as music that's another kettle of fish. I hope if he has done this that he asks Groove and Dredd if they're happy with the amendments. I'd hate the soundtrack to be ruined in parts for the sake of high samples that don't fit with anything for the sake of showing off pcm with an expansion chip.

I got to the last stage. So far so good. The last stage backgrounds are a bit disturbing. It's just giant black butts that take up the whole screen that have cum dripping out of them.

[cleeg]

I'd rep you if I could NeoVamp.

[NeoVamp]

It's the thought that counts!

[IrishNinja]

If it doesn't... Week long ban!

i second this motion

Have the devs offered any news on progress recently, because we've all laid down a fair bit of cash which I'm sure adds up to quite a bit. Not exactly business like. Don't get me wrong I'm happy to wait as long as it needs but at this point it would only be good manners really.

WM is a one man operation, and that one man doesn’t give a shit about complaints, customer care or refunds. He pissed off everyone including collaborators (Tulio, Luis) and there is nothing we can do but wait... he is good at getting the max out of mega drive and bad at everything else. Hopefully he will deliver, but he’s not reliable

[EternalChampion]

No offense to anyone who likes the backgrounds. Maybe there is something wrong with me.

At this point I'm not concerned about the audio quality; Fonzie's disrespect to the artists who contributed to the project is what I'm seeing here.
Terrible.

At this point, it seems like he's intentionally lashing out at team members who don't keep their mouth shut.

It will be interesting to see after the dust settles, who will be willing to work with him. He may be able to push technical limits, but he can't do anything without assets. Meanwhile other programmers don't need to push hardware to the limit to accommodate any artist's assets.

I don't foresee many people willing to work with Fonzie after this project. The guy seems to be difficult to work with. I understand that the actual act of working with him on a project may be very different, but this experience seems to have put off a lot of otherwise very patient, well-respected contributors, and I don't think other artists, devs, and musicians are going to be too keen to collaborate on a project of this magnitude with Fonzie again. The payoff, experience, and timeframes are just don't seem worth the effort.

Genesis games don't really need to be long, drawn-out marathon development cycles. Design/develop games at a realistic scale... This model seems financially and professionally unfeasible.
