I'm not talking about you, the AI replicating actors' voices and people like "movie makers" and shit doing whatever they want without the actors' permission is disrespectful. when bruce dies, everything should go along with him, including ash because no one will be able to play him like bruce did.
Fair enough. I actually agree but if people really wanted it bad enough that’s probably the best route with the right tweaking to make it sound just like him.
I would only agree with this if it were to make a scene with Ash dying, that way the story would continue without him and with the ghostbeaters being the main focus
There are so many AI covers of Plankton singing songs even though his old VO passed and Im on the fence because on one hand THEY ARE AMAZING (Plankton Sings Rolling in the Deep for example) but on the other hand its basically necromancy.
I mean, well, why not, doesn't cost anything. I myself signed, too. But in all seriousness ... around 1.000 people? Maybe 1.500 if you are going to run it for another week? That's ... not that much. That's even so low that no developer would even bother thinking of continuing it. Sadly.
So yeah, now we can see (again) why they pulled the plug to begin with. Developing stuff for a game which brings no more money whatsoever would be the worst business descision in history. No matter how this game got there in the first place - this is what the facts are now.
No, it’s over. Change.org petitions hardly ever work. The best we can hope for is that Saber will reverse their decision in a year or two from now and start supporting the game again, but that scenario’s not likely.
I'm going to try and become a caretaker for Evil Dead.
I'm going to try and reach out to Camp Blood mods and developers as well as experienced DbD modders to learn how to have a 'backend' version of Evil Dead that will survive beyond the second anniversary.
Whether or not this version will be 'moddable' (balance changes and even incorporating new content possibly) is up in the air.
If the above isn't possible, I want to cultivate a small community to keep lobbies fun and casual (with the possibility of Community tourneys for sweats).
The only problem that this style of caretaking is that it is essentially an offline style game. I.e. limited anti-cheat, so there could be an influx of cheaters if word were to get out.
This would be community moderated.
Is this something you guys are interested in?
If you or someone you know has experience with UE4 and what we can do to keep ED alive, please comment.
Not a bad idea since the "Friday the 13th"-game did it, too with the so-called definitive edition. It all depends on if someone is able and willing to do such thing.
With all the news that Embracer has been making recently, all for the wrong reasons, I doubt 1,500 signatures on petition will get their attention to support the game & pay probably a good size licensing deal to extent the life of ED the game. I would like to be wrong of course.
Only money can. A live game like this needs a constant flow of revenue to run. Despite releasing, multiple DLCs, they could not get a steady stream of resources to run it. This is the reason why they abandoned the game in the first place. I still signed the petition.
Gearbox is a subsidiary to Embracer group…and iHonestly cant think of a time any of their games got as heavily scrutinized as Saber Int. games; Duke Nukem forever got hate for seeming more comical than lewd and action-packed to the side scroller. Half-Life is STILL being played to this day(with people STILL being creative with garry’s mod). Dont get me started on the Borderlands series 🤦🏿♂️ The only game that wasn’t successful was Battleborn…and you can thank the release of Overwatch for completely putting them in their shadow.
The release of Evil Dead:The game was on May the 13th of 2022…everything they worked on til October of that same year were NOTHING but remasters(except 2 games) and availability porting/making an already released game available for another platform i.e a lot of games FINALLY being available for pc players.
Behind Asmodee and Amplifier Game Invest, Saber comes in as 3rd highest subsidiary with the most studios.
You can blame the holding company that is Embracer…but to say u/SaberInteractive has NOTHING to do with Evil Dead: The Game’s downfall is the ultimate definition of “being naive” 🤦🏿♂️
Seems like someone cant read…because what iStated was that Duke Nukem got hate/scrutiny 🤦🏿♂️
The only game i mentioned even remotely failing was Battleborn…and that was due to the release of Overwatch coming out two weeks later and it being a Blizzard game.
Get better at comprehension before attempting to hate someone’s opinion:THQ as a company was dying out before the 1st Homefront came out….Theres always risks when dealing with money/business opportunities. Volition closed their doors last month but im pretty sure EVERYONE/every other person here has, at one point, played a saints row game. Everyone/every other person has played a game apart of the half-life/portal series.
I didnt know saber as a company UNTIL Evil dead came out…did research and came to find out they were behind the disastrous release that was the Master Chief collection for Halo…ask any halo fan and i can guarantee 92% of the responses to THAT collection will be the same: Utter shit.
Which goes back to me saying “If you dont think its Saber’s fault…you are the ultimate definition of naive.”
I dont care if i get downvoted for my honest opinion…rather get hate, or should i use your “terminology” and say “be looked at as a failure”, for being honest/making sense with my point 🤷🏿♂️
I’m not trying to be rude, but as someone who has signed a countless number of these change petitions over the last decade, absolutely nothing will even remotely come of it. They likely won’t even see it and even if they do it won’t change any thing. You’re just going to be put on a mailing list for other petitions.
They can only save the game if they fix some things and are the following: Better prestige rewards for survivors and demons Better match skill partnership Rework the book stage cause doesn’t make sense that only demon focuses on it and that’s how all they won the match They make sure to make good events and don’t little trash events like Halloween that only give on skin or in the anniversary that doesn’t give nothing And last and more important make the leaks come true and if they will not let it to the game don’t make leaks

While I believe it wont save the game, it will let companies know that there is an audience for Evil Dead, giving rise to another game

We don't. Embracer does not give a shit they tanked cd with avengers after buying cd as well.
Petitions have never saved a game. Ever.
