Mob Rules Games wants you to vote on its next game, for free this time

That blueprint looks like it came straight from Singularity.

I hope the opportunity arises for all of them to come to life, but I have to dial G for Gorilla.

So, charging for votes didn't work so they're doing this one vote for free. Then they're going back to charging for votes. Which didn't work... Good luck guys.

I honestly don't think /any/ of their ideas are particularly good.

I'm going to re-post what I said on their website:

"The issue with your first idea was that, well, we simply don't know your pedigree. How do we know you can put out a decent game if you haven't made any yet? While I liked the concept of "Last Second", I didn't like it ENOUGH to put my money on it with such a risk that it may not get made.

What if the game loses? I just wasted my cash on some other stupid dreck I don't want (Really? Guerrilla Gorilla?). What if you guys aren't very good? Then my investment hasn't paid off, again. And really, that's what it's about - you're asking us to invest our money into something, and you're coming right out the gate saying "Oh, the game YOU invested in may not get created and you may just end up wasting it entirely." You think you may be drawing in 3x the number of viewers, but really you're only going to draw the same number, and then cut off 2/3rds of them at the end of the development cycle.

I know my comments may sound brutally honest, but they're aimed at being critical, not spiteful. I don't want you guys to pack up and leave, I want you guys to improve how you present your ideas to us. What is your past history with games? I want to know what you worked on (without having to google for the info). I want more than just a brief game concept.. which leads into another point.

To be (even more) frank, waiting around for voting is not doing you any favours. You could be working on a game RIGHT NOW!, but instead you're twiddling your thumbs and waiting for us to vote one way or another. You're delaying a release by putting these voting stop-gaps along the way, and it makes you seem uninvested in your ideas and wasteful with your time and money.

Cheers!"

It's a good thing I'm not into race to the bottom priced phoney games.
