    That’s why customer goodwill is so important. It can save you from doing a major mistake simply by the fans still buying the next game out of support for the studio.

    Also, the “if we don’t get funded” message rubs me the wrong. It feels like an appeal to emotion rather than an honest message. Something along the lines of “we’ll continue looking for funding, though the project will be put on hold” would feel more genuine without tugging on heartstrings.

    Let’s see how their new game idea works out. Honestly a prophunt horror game seems interesting, but I feel it’s pretty much done to death by free mods/gamemodes already.

    Is this a legit site for gaming news? This is like the 5th time I’ve seen this site posted, but I’ve never once heard of it, and the URL is weird. Anyone know?

      I can’t answer your question but I will say it seems like the website name is trying to go for aesthetic naming, such as “level 80” being what the URL is supposed to indicate. If the website is mostly gaming articles, and the sites name is 80.lv, I can understand what they’re trying to go for.

      Let’s just hope for their sake Latvia’s servers don’t go down. Or maybe they are Latvian (I doubt this though)
