Word for word what you said: "One thing, that I’ve thought, for 8 years, this game should be almost ready" Ignoring the overuse of commas, that statement says that you've thought the game should be almost ready for 8 years. For 8 years development was clearly the intent, unless you want to see it differed, so you can have a whine I mean, it was not even a tiny step to work it out. Lol you wanna try that again with something coherent? No Im sure you can find someone to explain the typos to you, and then help you figure it out. Typos aren't the issue. The issue is that was just nonsense. Funny you say typos was not the issue, yet it’s all you cried about, I’ve yet to see you post, anything that shows I’ve spoken nonsense.

I agree, but 8 years in, and we seen very little l the dragon they showed was the same they showed 3 years ago. With zero improvements. Some thing just does not feel right. I honestly wish I’m wrong, but time will tell, do think a game will be released, it’s just what will it be.

I'm not necessarily saying any of this is incorrect (especially the stories about Steven - I wrote some of them myself). I'm saying that if you are going to act on it, be sure its accurate information. If it is accurate information, feel free to post it here.

I'm not sure you could even hire a part time cleaner for that money in California.@/Nemeses Look I get it, you don't like such news being associated with a project you supported. That is a measure of your appetite for risk. See you later.

I went ahead and did a basic dive into available information, again just a basic dive so I probably didn’t weed out all the skeletons. I didn’t find anything currently relevant or in process that would flag any serious concerns to me personally. Everything I found was just basic corporation loops and shenanigans. You will not find any corporation in the modern world that has not, is not, or will not deal with the same issues at some point. They do crop up more commonly with newer companies, doesn’t matter if it is a completely brand-new company, a new branch of a parent company, or a new company under someone that already has one or more other different companies. It’s part of the sorry state of the bureaucratic system. “You have an awesome idea? You say it will make money? Here, fill out these forms in triplicate so I can use them to find ways that you will either owe me money or I’ll have some form of control over your idea.” Case in point, and an amusing one at that. Looks like it took 3 years for them to get their trademark approved. I found out with a document from 2019, there are more but it’s the only one I read, in the document the “Trademark Trial and Appeal Board” a.k.a. bureaucratic system denied the Intrepid Studios logo a registration. It’s a fairly long winded 19-page debacle of legalese. I mean if the first thing at the top of the page is immediate denial of legitimacy and refusal to adhere to what is written within. That’s just….Wow… Gotta love that system. What a joke, here I’ll copy it over for you guys. I can summarize the document for you, less than one page too. “We(Trademark Trial And Appeal Board) feel that the stupid peasants cannot understand or comprehend without our guiding hand. As such we(Trademark Trial And Appeal Board) deny you(Intrepid Stuidos) the right to use your chosen name, Intrepid Stuidos, and your chosen original trademark on the grounds that Intrepid Pictures already exists. The names sound to similar and the text font on the logo’s are too similar, the stupid peasants will be too confused to know what they are purchasing." What it boils down to is the asshats at TTAB wanted a kickback, or are getting a kickback from someone else, most likely Intrepid Pictures or an affiliate. Given that the exact logo that was declined in said document is indeed the current logo up on the site and pretty much everywhere else, I’d say that said asshats either got the kickback or stopped getting it from someone else. Typical day bureaucratic meat grinder.
