@Vortech - @Prometheus and a Gamigo rep answering questions has NOTHING to do with transparency and everything to do with public relations (which is in fact the exact of opposite of transparency).
We shall see how things shake out.

RE: Get ready for Closed Beta!posted in News & Announcements
No need to speculate, this information was made available back in December 2021..
- Dynamight will retain ownership of the game and the IP- 205s - Have you reviewed the contract? then you do not know this.
- Dynamight did not relinquish creative control - Second video 426s - When you get yourself a Sugar Daddy you need to make them happy. Although on paper DS retains ownership and control when the Sugar Daddy says do this or do that there is a pretty good chance it is going to get done.
- Gamigo secured global distribution rights, they earn a portion of the profits from revenue - 432s & 3286s
- Upon a contract exit, Dynamight will retain full ownership of - 488s - Sure but by the time Gamigo is done with Fractured what will DS have control of exactly? Probably a hot mess of garbage
- Gamigo is not here to change the vision of Fractured - 1323s. In many ways it feels like the vison has ALREADY changed. DS went into this project with a passion to make the game they wanted to play and the rest of us tagged along. Now Gamigo comes along. What is their vision? Oh here's a game we can pillage like we have done with so many others.
- Dynamight retains creative control, IP, and monetization - 322s - Right up until the Sugar Daddy 'suggests' a few changes
It's a mutually beneficial partnership. I suggest folks watch the two videos in their entirety.. Questions were repetitive, but representatives from both sides made it pretty clear. This forum software does not embed videos with time specifics URLs. - Sure mutually beneficial for DS and Gamigo (although in the end I am willing to bet more beneficial for Gamigo then DS) but what about the community? Also I do not know why you think we have not watched those two videos? Or why you seem to take them as Holy Writ? They are public relations pieces Probably written by Gamigo's PR dept)
I get the cynicism towards Gamigo, but this is a different arrangement than what we're accustomed to. Gamigo didn't buy the husk of a previous developed game with the intentions to zombie it. Fractured is still very much in development.
If I stick my hand in the fire I expect it will get burned. This is certainly the same. I admire your optimism. I prefer realism as it frequently leaves me less disappointed with how things turn out. I hope that you are right and I am wrong but realistically I don't believe that will be the case.

@Vortech said in Get ready for Closed Beta!:
Nobody is cheering but @Prometheus has made it pretty clear on their involvement at this point.. Dynamight owns the IP, so they can part ways if need be down the road.
Sure dynamight can own the 'IP' all it wants to, but follow the money. Gamigo controls the purse strings. They control the game. Part ways with the money? unlikely.

Changes to the website. Pausing the Foundation. Blah blah blah
The Fractured we all signed up for is dead and gone. Lost when the devs decided it would be a good idea to hand over the reins to Gamigo.
It is unclear to me why everyone thinks this is such a great thing
