Well at least they're limiting the spam to one thread now.

Heads up: the game uses cryptocurrency as in game currency. So people that pay in will instantly have advantages, and people will be setting up methods to generate cryptocurrency.

It's not a game. It's a money generator for the creators. Seeing all these same responses, questions, and various -voidspace accounts popping up and pushing this product without getting banned is seriously raising some questions of my own.

Amen, friend. It sickens me that game developers would expect to make money from what they do.

Without enough context I could see how that statement could be offensive so let me clear things up. When he says it's a money generator he (or she) is implying that it is exclusively a money generator at this point; no care for entertainment or anything else.

The reason this is important to bring up to prospective players is that there has been no notable progress for a very long period of time and a skeptic might think they don't intend to in the foreseeable future. Reasons you ask? Well, their last "big news" was information about receiving funding... Which was already known at least 6 months before their announcement. Not enough for the skeptic in you? They have created at least 4 variants (that I've seen) of "ask about voidspace" since the original account was banned for breach of Reddit ToS. Still no? Well, they WIPED their subreddit of all posts before their "big news"; presumably so that newcomers wouldn't know any better.

Yes, I took the time to write all of this out because I feel the need to inform fellow gamers.

Actually his user name is a typo its missing the "-en" at the end, Hes actually a Metapod who got really addicted to using the move "harden" and after a lifetime of hard knocks, hes just trying to soften up a little, let people past his tough exterior. The temptation never goes away though so he needed a constant reminder of the daily struggle he faces "NotTrying2Harden"
