But I suppose it's been thrown back in my face by sanik, truely demonstrating why the sonic community doesn't deserve anything, not even a video or an animated gif.

So I bid you farewell.

Ok you know what, I have really grown tired of your silly blaim games. You can't make decisions for a whole community based on one member, what taste does that leave in the mouths of everyone else, some just feed into that blind anger. He just thought that he would put the name of the person that actually created it. Ya some may find that rude. But don't be petty and say that they are the reason nothing else will be released. You just love trying to turn people on eachother don't you?
You are just playing with the sonic community and I for one do not appreciate it at all. You just always say its someone elses fault because you did not release something. I think people need to stop being petty and act proffesional for a change.

Anyway, I'm also a frequent poster on ASSEMbler's forum, and both himself and the community there I have found to be very helpful and open regarding the more obscure side of gaming.

I am posting this here in defence of the community and ASSEMbler, since I am in their debt for aiding me regularly with my writing work.

I just wish people didn't get all angry about this.

posted March 14, 2006 10:09 AM            

Summary:

1) I don't care what ASSEMBler has provided before, he has not proven to me to be selfless or to act in a way appropriate for an administrator - or as a professional. "You had your chance now it's gone forever... so long suckers!" is an attitude in conflict with "community spirit" and certainly fit for someplace other than these forums.

2) What you saw in the tiny animated footage of the level may have been something designed to promote interest (though it was posted with the subtext "you'll live" which, by anyone would logically be interpreted as you'll live because everything will be okay... and I interpret that specifically to mean "you'll live because I have secrets... that I may or may not share depending on my mood and professionalism as it suits me...") which is honorable to share (if you actually share it!), but in reality, even if that was shared, it's far less than what you will be witnessing. So don't cry a river yet!

3) The community will be receiving VERY SOON materials unseen in the amount of actual video footage with actual gameplay and substance that span the 3-year development of Sonic Xtreme. This will be yours to view and discuss - and believe me, there will be A LOT to discuss.

4) SANiK is not why ASSEMBler stopped the purchase. SANiK has been a tremendous help in aiding the delivery of materials you have seen and will see in the Sonic community. He may be quick to judge and sometimes harsh, but his intentions are just, as are his actual and consistent actions for the benefit of this community.

5) Ganging up on, bad-mouthing, emotionally blaming and other pointless activities will not be tolerated here. Remember that there is never one reason for anything...

This arguing will stop now or this thread will be locked from further input. I don't have time to babysit...

Having it doesn't make you a god, it doesn't give you status or clout, nobody holds you in any regard just because OMG you have this thing in your posession. Stop being an immature twerp and either rip the disc and SHARE it with the community (and actually receive a bit of "glory", if that's what you're looking for), otherwise STFU and GTFO. Seriously, if you're not going to contribute, just leave, and you can sit by yourself in your room clinging to the piece of plastic you covet so much.

Even though it's a concept, I would like to play it. It's funny though, because when I saw the first video of gameplay released of the game, the gameplay was of something that hasn't been done before, or something that i've never seen before, and that's what made it unique.

I guess one screenshot I can just pull out of my butt would be this:

Now tell me if that doesn't impress you. If something such as this is not in a 800kb demo written on a Mega CD disk, then i'm not completely satisfied.

But who knows, perhaps before 2012 we'll be able to play the engine that was featured on that early roll of film!

You know, we may not have this demo, but that's okay. What Chris here is giving us is much more than any crappy test engine could.

ASSEMbler gave us false hope. Kurisu is giving us Sonic X-Treme. That, I believe, is enough to let us able ourselves to brush this incident off as it truly is: A load of crap.

Without help from members here, I couldn't deliver some of what you'll see and couldn't store any of what has been shared so far either... and the show of support overall has been great... I'm not afraid of an argument ruining this forum - but we have to look past stinky situations like this.

I suggest we let this go and proceed with conversations relating to Sonic Xtreme... fair enough?

1. Motivate us to what, pay you a nice sum for a barely playable build of an outdated Saturn game? The Sonic community would like to have it, not pay hundreds of dollars for it.

2. Why we don't deserve anything? Are we supposed to be grateful that you're offering to release this to us at a cost of tons of money that most of the people in this community lack? What are we supposed to do next, start praying to you towards your house every morning? Drop the elitistic prick attitude. You're just looking for cheap money and thought that this was valuable enough to hang over the Sonic community's head until we started paying you.

EDIT: Whoops, missed kurisu's last post. Well, consider this the end then, or something.

From what you said in one of your previous posts, all you want is the X-treme beta.
Well why be angery at us if you're not getting what you want?
