Quoted from Aurich:The other thing I want to say is look at this, this is an unlicensed theme, and people are curious and excited. Why? Because the art is gorgeous. Because the theme is intriguing and cohesive. You don't need a license to attract people, but you've got to do it right.
Yep, and I'd take it a step further, because I really love the music, sounds, and voice work samples that he has on the blog.
The artwork on the cabinet, backglass, and PF are just incredible!
Quoted from vid1900:What the hell are you talking about????
Stern builds way higher quality machines than Bally or Williams ever did in their heyday.
I was there, I was unboxing them, and fixing them on route.
There would always be a ton of things wrong directly out of the box. Even the ball guides would often have to be adjusted to even get the game to smoothly play.
What does Bally or Williams have to do with what he said?
Even if what you say is true (and I'm not saying it isn't), that doesn't mean that what JPop is trying to achieve isn't heads and shoulders above the mass production quality that Stern is doing.
The quote you were responding to didn't say one word about B/W, and wasn't the issue at all.
Quoted from gweempose:At this point, we just want our games built, period. If having Stern build them accomplishes this, then I'm all for it.
Sure you are...at this point.
But I bet you wouldn't have agreed to pay $10k when you first signed on to this project if you knew Stern was going to be the one building the pin.
Quoted from vid1900:What would be the difference in "value" if Stern took a pile of Jpops parts and assembled them - or if some guys Jpop hires, assembles a a pile of Jpop's parts?
Would you not think that Stern's employees have more experience assembling and QCing games?
Oh, let me be clear: I would absolutely put way more faith in "some guys JPop hires" putting together RAZA under the direction/supervision of JPop than I would having Stern employees do it.
No brainer. I've seen enough crap QC from Stern to put little value in their "experience" in that regard.
