I payed for this game once.
money to OOO, for the good times this game gave me, for the laughs I had, the friends I made.

But I will not drop money again.
Not for reskins of weapons.
Not for Radiants...
Not for whatever the future updates hold.

I'll pay you again when you try to fix the beautiful but flawed game you already have.

Edit: edited out amount cause people focused on the wrong part of this thread.

I paid at one point too- half as much as you, but I didn't do it for a costume- I did it because they got rid of the energy system, which was an incredible risk on their part, but a risk that was in the best interest of the game by far.

Wow.

Kudos to you for paying this much for a game like this. I have only payed 6 bucks, but I promise to pay more once better content is released.

If I get a decent job some day, I'll probably give OOO marginally more XD. I'd want them to hire more people so that they can legitimately be on the market rather than "meh".

Cause all you 3 guys/girls represent the whole SK population

/slowclap

Worst Thread of all time....

P.S. you will spend more on booze and whatnot in one night than you ever will on SK... and after 2k hours not paying one cents to the game dev is hyprocrite

If you love the game you will support it... period

If you are a kid you might ask mommy for an event but you can't anymore because she will ask question you might not be able to answer...

And SK has been my main game for almost 2 year now... shame on you IMO

If you're going to call people out on being wrong somehow, you'd better make sure you aren't making a great example of another kind of wrong..

I think you need to work on your reading skills Shaman-Llama.
I supported this game, but I won't continue doing so because I dislike the direction it is going in.

Also: imposing your idea of having to spend onto other people, without any regard for their given situation is not really thought out is it?
I know you're not a native speaker so I don't care for your post being rather crude, but even what is said is pretty incomprehensible.

People still pay for the game even if you don't like it

Haven't you notice how "old" forumers that were huge $$$ sink left the game and it didn't die? I just find it funny that people will pay for the game to be like they want, not to actually support the game and the direction it is heading.

Radiant drops will be revisited, I got a "SOON" answer from Atalanta. The game is in constant change, even you should know it...

And yeah my english is bad, but it's still readable, you get my points through my bad punctuation and grammar XD

Edit: And to be fair, I don't really care what others opinions are about me, I voice mine and gets ignored most of the time, my recent Thread is a good exemple of it

Ah, that's why it is an open

Ah, that's why it is an open letter. I'm fully aware my money isn't what is keeping OOO in business.
I'm just putting out what I would and wouldn't pay for.
As far as 'what I want the game to be' goes, I just want it to be fixed. Rather than you know, expanded.
You fix the foundation before you build the house, otherwise you end up with a crappy house.

Your recent thread, which I read btw, detailed radiants coming back 'soonish-er-later'.
It also stated that Atlanta is only a GM, and she would try to convey it at a company meeting. And then that comment about 'management'
In short: it does not give me a conclusive answer, nor any hope. So yeah, that's why I ignored it.

:)

Well having an answer on a soon fix for radiant drop isn't the answer you wanted. But it's conclusive that it will change...

I can understand you won't pay reskin and radiant... but if radiant is fix before gunner update, would you support them again? (I told atalanta to make fire crystal recipe from 4* to 5* instead with ce and cr so expect this kind of fix)

Claiming to not support any future update because you had enough is a bit... extreme don't you think? (and also quite selfish)

Edit: Sorry if I was a bit harsh at first -_- I can react quite... well IDK the word but I jump to conclusion fast

Wait, when did I say that I was the entire population of Spiral Knights? That's absurd. I've said that I think the population of SK feels a certain way at times, but I've never claimed to objectively speak for them. Or at least that's what I've implied, though there always is one- "FEHZOR THINKS SHE IS THE WHOLE POPULATION! :O"

And I'd love to donate money to OOO, like I said. The issue isn't that I'm some kid on the internet, its that I'm some university student on the internet. This implies that I currently have negative money to spend on OOO, and that going to go to my parents like "Hey, I know that you've been very generous with me already, but CAN WE GIVE MONEY TO THESE RANDOM GAME DEVS FOR NO REASON :D :D :D" just wouldn't go over well at all. I have a job, so I can afford to give a tiny but to them now, but honestly it barely pays for gas.

To be fair I was quite shocked to see how little vets could put in the game....

And a bit disturbed by it -_-

Again sorry if I was a bit harsh, I'm not gonna edit but I feel dumb for overeacting, oh well we live and learn to fight another day... I always thought that vets and beta tester would've give more to the game in 2 years than that... o.O

I guess I'm just a big gamer >.<

I used to love goats.

I used to love donating money to Three Rings. I used to love doing that for Spiral Knights, but time passed, and the Puzzle Pirates staff became grinchy grinch grinches. They got bored and lazy with Spiral Knights, and decided to turn this game into another regular job, "Can't wait for Friday's paycheck, going out bowling with some friends this weekend!". Nick, how you've changed so much mate. I remember the good old days when you were excited about the release of Spiral Knights, and the glory days of April of 2011. Now, look at you? Mate, what have you become? You spend your week nights at home, laying on the couch in your little knickers or trousers, watching Netflix all day with your girlfriend. It's like you forgot about us, about the Spiral Knights community.. We used to be your priority... You used to love us.. How you've changed so much Nick...

You're not fooling anyone with that Alt, Annilation.

Also, stop Spamming the Forums, again.
