so the Paradise situation apparently
isn’t over who would have thought so in
today’s video we’re going to go through
their latest update we have some
comments from Peggy the ratings board
and we also have some other little bits
to touch upon but before we get into it
I just want to say a 10-second quick
thank you to today’s video sponsor Cinch
Gaming if you’re looking for a custom
controller you can even upload your own
designs make sure you check out the link
down below now let’s get into it so if
you want to get completely up to date
from start to finish I do have a full
series on the whole Paradise Saga but
today things have just got more and more
embarrassing so of course they had their
release date they released early it was
just a demo they then promised that the
full game was coming on Steam and Epic
Games the following day that didn’t
happen now coming up on 3 weeks later we
still have absolutely zero news about
the Steam or Epic Games version of the
game and I say game in quotations there
because uh it doesn’t exist but today
they’ve dropped their first proper
announcement but before we get to that I
just want to go back through their
history on Twitter a little bit so
previously they were replying to
everyone’s tweets and they eventually
just stopped replying to people
including me they just don’t reply to
anyone anymore and of course the people
that have actually backed them and a lot
of people that have put money into their
cryptocoin most of them are now aware
that this whole thing was just a
complete scam
loads of people are still hanging on for
dear life it’s really confusing to me as
a viewer and someone that’s just
watching this happening to see people
come up with the craziest ways to
justify why this game is still real um
I’m beyond words on that but anyway
today they announced that their new
racing mode is coming soon and they
provided a trailer and boy it’s awful
like it’s it’s really bad so essentially
this is racing mode but when you
actually load into the map there’s a few
key things to note now they’re
advertising this as a full new racing
mode that they’re introducing into the
game well all this is is an asset pack
that they just downloaded and using
assets is perfectly fine but advertising
this as a big project you’re working on
when you’ve just downloaded an asset
added some rain and called it a day
isn’t good enough like what is that this
is a feature that you have in the game
but you don’t market you just put a
racetrack in there and something that
people can do to make this a core focal
point of your next trailer and your
marketing when it probably took the best
part of 20 minutes to make if that is
absolutely insane but this isn’t where
the problems start so firstly you drive
into these icons and then you get this
weird grayed out loading screen and then
as you start driving around firstly the
car loses control at around about 40 mph
which is almost impressive and uh they
forgot to remove the Nissan GTR badge
off the back of the car not really
surprised at this point then on top of
that on the bottom right hand corner you
notice how it says 144 mi of range left
of fuel well for the entirety of this
video that doesn’t change so um and this
is actually amazing cuz I’m now
impressed with Paradise cuz they’ve
created a new unlimited fuel system
technology is is really getting there
you know Paradise are at the forefront
of game gaming technology but then on
top of that on the top right hand side
it says make around the track which
doesn’t even make any sense but whatever
and this brings me on to a really
interesting point myself and many other
people have had theories that a lot of
the stuff that we’re seeing on screen
such as the speedo such as the timer in
the top right we had a theory that none
of that stuff was actually baked into
the game and was actually just added on
the screen after just using software
video editing it’s just added to the top
of the video and that’s further
confirmed by the fact that the timer
that they’re using isn’t synced to real
time so this 3minute video where in 2
and 1/2 minutes of it we see them
driving around the track well during
that 2 and 1/2 minutes of driving around
the track the timer goes up by nearly 5
minutes which means a couple of things
either one it is baked into the game and
not done with editing software but
they’ve sped up the video or two they’ve
done it using editing software but
haven’t synced the timeline correctly or
actually there’s a third option is that
they’ve um with their new technology
they’ve got with their unlimited fuel
technology they’ve broke the space-time
continuum i don’t know guys anything’s
possible now with this new update
they’ve just released they’ve still made
absolutely zero comments about Steam or
Epic Games and to be honest I don’t
think we’re ever going to hear anything
about Steam or Epic Games again now a
lot of people keep saying that they want
to try and download this game and mess
with it well people are now struggling
to download this game from the original
launcher and of course we’ve gone over
in the past how many people had issues
with potential viruses and some people’s
computers have entirely shut down and
broke so do not download this the
launcher that they’re using doesn’t
appear to be good or even legitimate for
that matter there’s a lot of things here
that are raising more and more red flags
the more we go on and it’s got to the
point now where of course all of their
replies are people asking questions and
they’re all logical questions and
Paradise are intentionally ignoring
everything if this doesn’t tell you
everything you need to know and my past
what 10 videos on the topic whatever it
is don’t tell you what you need to know
you’re delusional now I’d like to take
this opportunity to actually respond to
some of the the backlash um to honest
it’s not a lot but I feel I have you
know the right to defend myself a lot of
people are saying that me coming after
companies like Paradise is me trying to
stifle innovation and every single time
I’ve responded asking the same thing and
I never get a response how was this
innovation they’ve just gone to Fab
downloaded the map pack edited the
weather dynamics and that’s pretty much
it talking to a few people a lot of them
said that they could recreate this in
maybe 20 30 minutes maximum this is an
innovation this is utilizing false
marketing to pump and dump a crypto coin
now after doing some more investigation
into their coin we can actually see that
during the release date a lot of big key
holders of the coin were selling and
they were dumping their coin and we
don’t know who’s actually dumping the
coin but it’s you can make up your own
assumptions and who’s responsible for
that but then this leads on to the
question of what’s actually happened and
what’s actually going to be happening
well I think in their head they had this
grandiose idea that they’d be able to
drop all these fake trailers for a game
that doesn’t exist and lead people to
buy into their cryptocurrency and it
would work really well it would be a
successful rug pull or whatever it’s
going to be and they’d make a couple of
million dollars and then walk off but
what’s actually happened is is they made
the big mistake of being absolutely dog
[ __ ] at scamming people and what they’ve
actually done instead is obviously
clearly spent a lot of money buying
these assets and buying all of this
stuff to make the trailers and paying
people or whatever they have spent a lot
of money on advertising their scam and
it looks like from what we can see they
haven’t been able to recoup their
investment so they’re now just hanging
on for dear life and and you can sense
how bitter they’re getting for example
in one of their trailers they came after
Jetro they made him a homeless man and
said that he eats [ __ ] bearing in mind
Paradise are trying to market themselves
as a professional games developer and
they’ve claimed to work on some of the
biggest games ever which they haven’t
then on top of that they’re making digs
at gamers they’re saying things like
“We’re just gamers why do we care that
the game didn’t release?” or anything
like that they’re they’re making digs at
the people that are supposed to be if
you’re a real games developer supposed
to be your captive audience now there’s
a lot of things still happening in the
background that I can’t talk about cuz
there are some investigations happening
and don’t worry videos will come out on
it when I can share the information now
I actually reached out to the panuropean
game information board which is Peggy
for people in Europe this is just like
the ESRB it’s the the same sort of thing
it’s just a European representation for
age ratings for for games it’s pretty
standard now in my Backwards and
Forwards of Paradise they claimed that
they’d had an official approved Peggy
and ESRB rating that was finalized for
the game and they’d also stated that the
game had been manually reviewed in their
backwards and forwards arguments with me
on Twitter well I actually had a
response from Peggy now to give you some
context for how this works when you
upload a game to Steam or Epic and you
list the title for wish list or
pre-order whatever it might be there’s a
process that involves the ARC which
basically means that you can self assess
your game so you can say whether it
includes guns violence whatever it might
be and you get a self assessment now
when the game actually releases Peggy
and ESRB then go through and manually
check it to make sure you’ve reviewed
yourself properly and if you haven’t
sometimes it gets delisted or if you’ve
really cocked up on giving your game
like a children’s rating when it’s an 18
plus they may even get the game taken
down because this makes things a little
bit more complicated however that being
said that happening is quite rare now as
Paradise stated that they had been
manually reviewed by Peggy and the ESRB
well Peggy have confirmed to me that
ratings acquired through ARC are based
on a publishers’s own disclosure of the
content in their game and these are
verified postrelease now the response I
got from Peggy was the rating for
Paradise XRPL has not yet been verified
by us because it is not released on the
storefront it was acquired for so the
ARC rating which is a preliminary rating
was acquired for Steam and Epic Games
but because the game hasn’t been
released yet and there is no pre-order
actually available and actually no game
file for anyone to test out this means
that Paradise were point blank lying
when they said that ESRB and Peggy had
manually reviewed their game more to the
point Paradise used to have a 12 rating
on the game this was a Peggy 12 rating
this is basically a game for kids they
had this publicly listed on their
website and of course myself Jetro and a
few other people called them out on it
then out of nowhere they went and
changed it to an 18 but to display the
Peggy 12 rating makes absolutely no
sense because when filling out the forms
in relation to the Peggy ratings you
have to say whether the game contains
guns violence whatever it might be and
if that is the case and it’s depictions
of real violence you cannot get a 12
rating so I’m of the belief that they
haven’t actually gone through this
process because no way in hell they ever
would have got a 12 rating for this game
so yeah that’s the latest and greatest
on the Paradise situation once again
there is some more stuff to talk about
but I’m just waiting for some other
stuff to be done you’ll see it’ll all
make sense in the future so keep your
eyes peeled make sure you subscribe and
I’ll see you all in the next one new
beginnings on the cusp on the cusp not
too old to adjust old dog new tricks
remember I was just a pup something
dirty in my cup in my cup clean soul
good karma is a must still my shooter in
