Sometimes, you get to say...

So to all the people on the NWN2 forums who told me I was being negative when I said that considering how long it's taken Atari to get their DRM patch in place, (over a year now), that I wasn't going to go *near* it until some other group of suckers had beta-tested it in the wild...

To all the people who told me that Atari and Obsidian have just the best QA and testers ever, and that there was no way they'd release a buggy patch...

After reading about the major bugs in the latest NWN2 Patch...

<Nelson Muntz>
HA-HA

I told you so.

Mmmm...let me wallow in that..."I Told You So". Is there really any phrase in any language that makes you feel that good to say?


No.

No there is not.

I told you so

Like wiping your ass with silk, that's how smooth that phrase is.

To all the people who really believed that Atari would get the MoW expansion approved for release before the bigger SoZ pack...sorry guys, but once MoW got delayed even close to that release, there was no way that was happening. The Atari team in charge of the NWN2 Franchise may be the most incompetent boobs to ever work anywhere, and they may not be capable of coding "Hello World!" in under six months sans bugs, but a company in that kind of financial straights? They're going to squeeze you for every dime.

Y'all got screwed.

To the prat at Obsidian who whined at me about how "if people weren't going to be nicer, they'd just stop making video games"...um...right. Although, if you keep doing business with Atari, you may not have to make that choice much longer. At any rate, way to go, dude, way.to.go.

To the Devs at Ossian, doublefucked by Atari and Obsidian both...I hope to hell you eventually make every dime you were promised and then some. In a den of incompetent walleyed vipers, y'all did your part on time as promised. Good on you.

I loves me a good trainwreck, and when you combine Atari and Obsidian? WHEEEEE!!!!!
