Today it was officially announced by the Sierra representative Adam Kahn that the Arcanum game will be delayed until September. We (the Arcanum community) are very displeased at the way Sierra has handled this and would like to see the game released to the US and the English speaking parts of the world a soon as the game is finished, and not when the French and German translations are done. Gaming companies are very fond of stating that the hard-core RPGers (and other such groups) occupy such a small share of the market that they can afford to alienate these fans... witness the proliferation of multiplayer and real-time combat in RPGs, for instance. A business becomes successful, however, by insuring that it keeps its loyal base while working to expand that base. Gaming companies often assume the opposite, assuming that RPGers will buy any RPG due to their relative scarcity. Until we attempt to show companies that they cannot simply take us for granted, they will continue to simply assume that they can do what they will without repercussion. Consumers only have power when we say 'No' once in awhile. I will also like to state that Until the satisfactory resolution of this issue we respectfully reserve our right to avoid buying any all all products from Sierra and its parent company Havas www.havas.com/ "We the undersigned respectfully request that Sierra and its parent company Havas rethink this decision and release this incredible game in a more timely manner to the largely English speaking world" All copyrights are property of their respective owners and all copyright rights are respected.
