Well ok, if amazon is selling guides on a print for print basis, I'll buy one for 20 bucks, however I'd rather give Blackthorne and company the money period!   Chadly.

Quest for Infamy / Re: Has anyone actually received their physical boxed edition of Quest for Infamy?

    Ok, at this point some who post here are getting a bit nasty and personal.  Blackthorne is doing the best he can, if those of you who cant be understanding and patient, ask Bt for your money back period. He has said he will work things out with you privately as it should be.  Lets face it folks in 20 years this memorabilia will only matter to the small group who made QFI happened, as this adventure genre is but a fond memory for those who remember it. 

    Lets all try and remember its the holiday season, whatever your personal religion may be.  Chadly.

Hey all, could it be this mysterious poster and owner of the companion and game is a liar?  Could it be he is full of shit? Is he telling the truth? Who knows? ALL I know is I support a great company who makes great games and will continue to do so. Chadly

@MusicallyInspired. I totally agree with you.  Some backers are acting like children.  I understand the frustration bUT what about the KS projects I funded that deliverd nothing? That really burns me. Kickstarter is a huge gamble.  I am waiting for spaceventure and hero u which are years late. I won't support any more KS's due to being burned.  Bt  has posted his reasons for the delays, but they don't seem to comprehend them.  Patience is needed not scornful remarks has some have made sadly. Let them bitch because Steve's not answering. I can imagine the stress this is on him and his family.  CHADLY.

Ok friends, not to kiss Blackthone and company's ass here but consider this:  You create a game out of an idea. You ask some 1000 plus others to help you do this, with no guarantee that its going to get done.  You as a backer take a Massive risk in giving your money to the creators. (Which I did, more than once on a couple platforms, plus buy tshirts, and multiple games after the fact.  Now as a backer I am waiting for a QFI Strategy guide, or whatever else one pledged for.  Yes it sucks to wait around with no info.  Has anyone considered BT situation? One man with no help to ship items.  A guy who has health issues and a newborn baby to deal with.?  Yeah I can understand the frustration, but if you managed to get the game you helped to create, consider yourself lucky as for me, I have gave money to othe projects via "Kickstarter" that have folded and I got absolutely nothing at a!! I.E. Super Retro Squad.

    I understand  the frustration, but shit man be patient or chalk it up as a loss.  Emailing BT or posting less than complementary posts will only delay delivery, as it will piss the creators off.  They in all reality don't owe you jack shit, or me.  I paid for a game (actually two) and have received one, with one coming.

    As I guy who works retail and has worked in the past, with the shipping services,  ITs a lot of work and money.  Not to say that perhaps IQ underestimated this fact.  Try shipping 500 packages all over the world, pay for it, and hope they get there undamaged.?  I could quote costs for packages as shipping, but its a small fortune to say the least.  And yes I know folks who pledged at high levels expect to be compensated or expect to get what was promised.   I am in no way making this personal as others have seemed to done. But hey Kickstarter projects are a gamble.  This gamble has paid off to me, (QFI, Order of the Thorne, and Roehm to Ruin.)

   Folks lets face it facebook an twitter, or any social media site is a pain in the ass.  I am I'm one of a few billion who don't subscribe to facebook.  My friends and family call me on the phone, (imagine that!) write real letters, (even real unthinkable in this digital age.), or email me.  From what I have seen those on social media get lots of friend requests from people they don't know and a Shitload of advertisements sadly.    This isn't a rant against social media, but lets face it we get less personal communication every day.    Chadly.

@Blake00 awesome work on both remakes. Can't wait to play them, but doom style is a bit dated for the kids. For us it's awesome. Keep up the good work guy.

    All is quiet at the forums as of late?  Have IQ's staff all gone on vacation?  Have they been placed in a mental facility for the insane?  Have they been ate by Hannibal Lechter?  Inquirering Minds want to know and are waiting for comments.........                                   Chadly.

                  I actually had that easter egg appear when I was playing some time ago.  I thought cool, this has to be joke.  Still it is funny nonetheless.

             Well ok. the bloody election is over and by all accounts a stunning victory for "The Donald" aka ego man.  Shit man I seen folks post doom and gloom already.  Hell there are just pissed that their candidate, sponsor, or friend didn't win. Frankly who gives a flying fuck?  Now I do as I want my country to be strong and stand for the ideals that it was founded on, however folks I'm not a multi millionaire, or a CEO of a billion dollar Corporation, what can 'ol Chadly do to effect change?  Nothing but vote which I did.  Lets just see how the cards turn up and not judge on our perconceptions.  Lets give ol Don a Chance.  He might suck or he might be great....Who knows......yet......Chadly

   @Klytos aka Shawn.  Not whining about the cost of cigs mate, as stated earliar I quit 5 years ago.  My point is taxes raise every year!  You are telling me a pack of cigs which is 20 individual smokes here where I Live is 30 dollars in your neck of the world?  Wow! Fuck me what is your individual income tax rate?  What the hell do you pay for a rent or a mortgage, or a pound 16 oz of hamburger there?  Jeez, just curious bud. I would love to move to Australia, howver if that's the cost of living and that's for a citizen, how much would an alien cost?   Chadly.

    Taxes, politicians, and cigs suck!   I quit smoking about 5 years ago when my brand went to 5 bucks a pack.  Now where I live on the east coast of the USA, a pack of Marlboro with sales tax tacked on to the other taxes (double dipping if you ask me) they cost $8.12.  Cheap brands are 7.  Legal weed, neat idea, tax that too and sell it in state stores. However its still illegal on the federal level.  Perhaps I will move to CO, CA, MA, or somewhere where pot is legal for adults to smoke for medicinal purposes......   Chadly.

Banter and Chit-Chat! / Are we slaves to the Net

« on: November 06, 2016, 04:13:08 AM »

As titled are we slaves to the Internet? Hell I pay bills,shop, play games, and talk to family and friends on the net.  Yet the world seems smaller not bigger. I used to call on the phone or write letters. (Remember that?) Don't get me wrong I love technology and the digital age, but it seems like we are becoming too used to shooting an email or txt to somebody than taking the time to connect in a more personal way. I don't won't to sound like my folks or grandmother, but hell I spend way too much online personally  and professionally nowadays, sadly.
