Re: [blind-gamers] A dragon reborn

[Shaun Everiss]

Well these games have had their day.

I mean I own some of them and got others by other means.

Would I buy them, probably not.

I may even kill them at some stage.

Change reaction is about the only one I play but to be honest there are 
loads of other games to play.


Over the years the gamebook and multi platform, multi access stuff has 
really jumpped.


I am going away to a friend's place and some of my multi access multi 
platform gamebooks and others will be shared with him.


I haven't played a spaciffic blind game long term for the last 3 years now.

If you want to purchase the games for Windows, you still can.  Go to
this link and look around.  I just bought the ones I wanted a couple
of days ago.  Click on a game, then the purchase button.  I used my
PayPal account just fine.

 I don’t understand the big deal myself.

 Not one individual before this announcement came out said 
anything
 about this company and the fact that titles have not been 
updated
 or such until this came out. Now everybody is up in arms 
about it.

 Why?

 In my opinion, if a company chooses to take another route 
then so
 be it. If you’re unable to purchase these titles now, you had 
all

 the way up to the date of the announcement either get a
 replacement key and or to try these titles out. If they were not
 available, what are you losing?

 Now, mind you, this is my opinion only. I personally don’t care,
 for. I have not played these titles in many many years and have
 absolutely no interest in playing them ever again.

This is what change looks like people! we have all had the chance to 
play these games on windows for years. now, The times are changing! I 
for one have no problem at all buying these games on iOS again. It's 
worth it, and helps out a great company that we know is legit, and 
will provide entertainment for us all. I for one welcome it!

I guess it stems from the fact that the titles will get further
development, but not on the widely used platform that they were
developed on in the first Place, making customers feeling cheated
out of taking part in future versiones of the Products without not
only having to pay for them again, but also having to afford the
new platform.

I don’t understand the big deal myself.

Not one individual before this announcement came out said anything
about this company and the fact that titles have not been updated
or such until this came out. Now everybody is up in arms about it.
Why?

In my opinion, if a company chooses to take another route then so
be it. If you’re unable to purchase these titles now, you had all
the way up to the date of the announcement either get a
replacement key and or to try these titles out. If they were not
available, what are you losing?

Now, mind you, this is my opinion only. I personally don’t care,
for. I have not played these titles in many many years and have
absolutely no interest in playing them ever again.

Sincerely,

Michael maslo

limited to demo mode, when I was under windows, and won't search
further. I can think that you aren't very reliable. Potentially
you have lost a customer.

You are making time free to invest on what you want today, develop
for mac and iOS. I'm pretty sure that, after a while, you will
just be annoyed about all those guys who lost their old windows
key, and will start taking ages to reply and eventually no longer
reply at all.

Certainly I won't ever try to buy your mac or iOS games since you
dont appear very reliable. Again you have lost a customer forever.

There is no free sugar ! Being in an half-closed unclear state is
going to be annoying both for you and your customers in the long
run.  Several other audio game companies did it, and slowly,
finally died.
