I hate to be the one, but I hope this fails in spite of them taking me and 4 friends money and never finishing HEX. I am still pissed off at them taking our money and never giving us our game we was promised.
Even though it's going to be another crappy mobile game, do not give these people any money. They have so many lies and missed features from their Kickstarter for Hex that they are not to be trusted again. I guess this is the mobile version of Hex we were all promised but never received. Is Red and Blue going to have guilds and raids like they promised for Hex but never delivered? I haven't thought about Hex in awhile but this announcement has genuinely made me angry. Seriously, fuck Corey Jones, Cryptozoic/Hex Entertainment and the horse they rode in on.
Is a man not entitled to the herp of his derp?
Remember, I live in a world where juggalos and yugioh players are real things.
Yeah, dis they ever get any pve figured out? I've been looking for one...found Lord of the Rings living card game, but thought Hex had some...but it doesn't seem to.
I will not touch anything made by the Hex studio ever again, its the only studio where I have this policy.
- kickstarter pledge / rewards not useable with the Steam client after all those years. - deleting your account halfway through the Hex life cycle unless you figure out their notification on time (this happened to everybody) - getting the guarantee you can get your account back when you contact customer support who then take several weeks to respond to your tickets. - and then are completely unable to help you with anything so you are screwed. - not paying players the money they won in tournaments. - 50% of features promised never delivered. - etc. - etc.
The worst part? The game is/was pretty cool actually. But never again for me.

i crowdfunded a few games years ago and learned my lesson they never do what they promise i will never crowdfund agame again they are all liar scum!
loved the concept, art and lore of hex but they were very incompetent handling the game. PVE sold me on the game which they largely ignored and then they went and double down trying get $$$ from pvp drafts, also drag their feet for years and sold KS packages that they did not want honor, so how do you fix all that? just start new game on mobile were players are more forgiving and it easier to get ads money or even $$$ and act like hex never existed.
be very wary and spend nothing or your be rewarding scummy tactics and feeding the beast that leads to more of the endless F2P crap with heavy cash shops were already dealing with.

I am so good, I backstabbed your face!

This is first studio I took note of the names of those making the calls to ensure I would not support anything they are involved in going forward.
Take the Magic: The Gathering 'What Color Are You?' Quiz.

It really sucks when companies don't finish what they started and jump into another venture, especially when they crowdfunded the original.
