A statement on SoC DLC, by Creative Assembly. For internal use only
00:00 - 00:03 | They're not buying the DLC |
00:04 - 00:05 | Pre-orders are down |
00:05 - 00:07 | Negative Steam reviews are pouring in |
00:08 - 00:12 | Everyone's saying they'll play Starfield, BG3 and other titles |
00:12 - 00:15 | Rob, now might be a good time to release a statement |
00:17 - 00:19 | Put a 10% pre-order discount on Steam |
00:19 - 00:21 | The plebs will buy |
00:24 - 00:26 | Mr Bartholomew |
00:27 - 00:28 | We.... |
00:31 - 00:33 | We already did that |
00:34 - 00:36 | They're still saying it's too expensive |
00:53 - 00:58 | Everyone who's working on Hyenas or Pharaoh leave the room |
01:13 - 01:15 | COSTS ARE UP |
01:15 - 01:17 | THAT MEANS PRICES HAVE TO RISE |
01:18 - 01:23 | WE KNOW ANY INCREASE IS GOING TO BE TOUGH |
01:25 - 01:28 | WHICH IS WHY |
01:29 - 01:31 | OUR PRICES HAVE |
01:31 - 01:34 | REMAINED STABLE |
01:34 - 01:37 | OVER THE YEARS |
01:37 - 01:40 | THE DOWNSIDE IS AN INCREASE IS MORE NOTICEABLE |
01:40 - 01:42 | Mr Bartholomew, it's still too... |
01:42 - 01:46 | COST ARE UP, COSTS ARE UP |
01:46 - 01:48 | Mr Bartholomew, the content is lacking |
01:48 - 01:52 | THEY'RE ABUSING ME |
01:53 - 01:54 | I'M A HUMAN BEING |
01:56 - 01:57 | IF THEY DON'T PAY |
01:57 - 02:00 | WE KILL THE GAME |
02:00 - 02:03 | NO MORE DLC |
02:04 - 02:08 | ALL OF OUR WORK IS EASIER |
02:08 - 02:13 | WHEN THEY SHUT UP AND BUY THE DLC |
02:14 - 02:16 | NO MATTER THE PRICE |
02:17 - 02:21 | THEY EXPECT US TO PATCH THE BUGS FOR FREE |
02:27 - 02:29 | Updates more than 3 times a year |
02:30 - 02:34 | How can they expect this of me? |
02:34 - 02:36 | We're a just a small indie dev |
02:41 - 02:42 | Impossible |
02:43 - 02:47 | IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO PATCH MORE OFTEN |
02:48 - 02:53 | WE PUT IT ALL INTO HYENAS |
02:54 - 02:56 | THEY WON'T BUY THAT EITHER |
02:56 - 02:59 | NOBODY SEEMS TO CARE ABOUT |
03:00 - 03:02 | WHERE'S THE HYPE |
03:04 - 03:07 | I'm sure they will play Hyenas, it's ok |
03:14 - 03:16 | Pharaoh pre-sales... |
03:19 - 03:23 | they're just not there either |
03:25 - 03:26 | I'm f*cked |
03:31 - 03:33 | It's over |
03:40 - 03:46 | Release this statement |
03:46 - 03:49 | They buy the DLC |
03:53 - 03:56 | Or we bin the franchise |
