Intel Cancels Project Offset

[TsunamiWombat]

I hate to piss on everyones New Orleans Funeral here, but pretty graphics don't make a game good. It looked clunky to me, like Dark Messiah of Might and Magic. Infact it looked almost exactly like Dark Messiah with better graphics.

I need more then pretty graphics to give a shit, so perhaps someone can enlighten me.

Looks good, but not spectacularly good by todays standards. Can't tell if we missed out on a good game, so no big deal.

Intel simply has too much money. They should be making great CPUs (and lousy GPUs for non-gamers), instead of dabbling in software development and then flushing 2 years worth of development and money all down the toilet.

I won't easily forgive Intel for this.

The sad part is when this whole 'Project' was just 3 guys in their garage, they were kept afloat by fan donations.

So they made bank selling their engine, and the people who had faith in them (and put their money where their mouth was) to release a kickass game are basically given the finger.

The Project Offset developers ought to be ashamed. Once they were acquired by Intel, I'm sure they didn't have much say in the matter, but still. What a disservice to their loyal fans.

I was really looking forward to this, much much more than Duke Nukem Forever. This has put a real damper on my day.

We missed a treat there. Like Dark Messiah only EPIC!!! (That said, the game engine did look like something Epic would make with their beloved Unreal 3 engine)
