We survived. Stalker Apocalypse announcement.

Yeah, namely: Stalker Apocalypse, without points and without the right to brand. Evgeny Kim, known, first of all, by the area, decided to make his S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2. He was not able to advance his last project through Kickstarter, and unsuccessful PR moves put a cross on Title, so he decided to create his own crowdfunding (where he called the team of your submissive servant, there, on the main page, we still hang). And now through him he collects money for his new-old project under the new-old name.

As you can see the video made quite bad, I would even say wretched. Kim himself broadcasts.

I would say all the benefits … https://slottiocasino.org/ but, by the will of fate, he personally invited us to participate in the pro. After the refusal, he tried to lure our best developers to himself. In short, he did not behave athletic, but during the negotiations he did not say something. I do not advise paying money through their crowdfunding. If they do not collect the right amount, they will still take the money (from his words). All they have now is a couple of units of their own content and good art. That is nothing. Do not fall into the loud name and be happy at the slightest opportunity!

And the story has a continuation. Here’s what Stalker’s developers wrote on their page about our complaints about them:

It is very sad when people are afraid and easier to say that those, others are bad than to keep their opinion to the end, no matter what. Apparently this does not apply to the leaders of the zone 17. Let’s put the points I. When we received the rights to Stalker Apocalypse, I offered to cooperate with the head of the zone 17, since I have been familiar with Sasha for a long time. Everything was moving for a very long time, even NDA was signed a few months later. When NDA was signed, we offered to work together on the Stalker Apocalypse, the consent followed instantly, even they suggested changing the name to Stalker Zone-17 :), but! When it came to the point, it became clear that the project of the zone-17, this is an unfinished area, with a different name and we began carefully and after we realized that the legal aspects of the managers of the zone-17 project are not respected as the deadlines, we decided to refuse to cooperate with the studio. The children will have to put the legal documentation in order both the company and the documentation for cooperation with freelancers who work on the project in their free work, otherwise the project does not have the future. Regarding crowdfiding, we suggested that they go to the Wfunder crowdfiding site, as they themselves were preparing to put their project there, which they agreed to, but the aspects of cooperation with Wfunder do not concern the WEST Games, so if they want to change something or abandon their steps, then they are accepted with the Wfunder site, then they are will have to write a letter to the support department of the crowdfidei site, and not write towards West Games nasty things. By their statement, the leaders of the zone-17 are trying to stand out and avenge our refusal, so I will no longer speak out on this topic and make them advertising. And good luck, gentlemen, the leaders of the zone-17, I do not share your path, since it is not built on honest partnerships.

PS. If there are requests to workers to translate the entire page into Russian.
PPS. On Sunday at 16:00 there will be a stream, on which we will talk about Stalker and S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
