I am definitely going to share this story with the team. It really touched my heart and I'm sure it will theirs.
I remember when the title went on steam, it was a really big deal.
As for the light saber, lemme look. The box is currently in storage, in it's original box, neatly packed. I cherish those years.
I indeed did. I started working on it as QA and left the project as a software engineer. It was a really fun experience.
edit: I have a lightsaber replica to show for it. Lol
I worked in Star Wars: The Old Republic for ten years. It's still running and the story is really nice. EA sold it to Broadsword.
I checked MAM, it's not listed. They have a 2022 book by the same name, different author.
Omg same. I have been burnt so many times on "lifetime" scams, im done. I want to invest in your product, but part of that agreement is you doing what you say. I've had it!
I don't think they realized anything. I worked for them for 13 years. I think they are likely looking at a strategy to bring archived games with low hardware requirements to new platforms that can run them.
For example, I worked on NBA and Madden Mobile. These were ps3 games that were ported.
It's a good strategy. Why start from scratch when you can just port existing titles that had good sales.
If you're that dumb, it's natural selection at that point.
Sounds like that's the way I'll have to go. Unfortunate, I hate increased layers of complexity, but I think that's the move.
Looks delicious.
edit: love the negative prompt "head tattoos" lol
edit2: wait how many legs does that thing have?
Yeah when I worked at BioWare we would do things gradually, then I moved to EA Mobile and staging and testing was like a foreign concept. It was wild. Fortunately that changed, but having a staging instance is really really important, as I'm sure many people now realize. Sometimes lessons are hard. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I also love this game. It's just fun to play.
