Gone Fishing

Too much time spent on this project lately has caused me to become tired and cranky and I think I should probably take some time off for awhile.

But before I go, I'd like to pose these questions. Where are all of these people that wish for a Blood 3, or that post in forums demanding for the release of the source code for Blood 1? It's almost comical listening to people repeat the slogan "release the source code" like some mindless zombies. If it ever were released would any of these people actually do anything with it?

There's been an opportunity here for over a year for people to help in improving an official Blood game and in also creating a brand new Blood game. But people haven't exactly been banging down my door with offers of assistance. Even after being continuously shown the potential of this project, it seems that it's too much effort for most people to even offer a supportive comment. Yet there's always time for people to write another post in another forum to "release the source code".


I do greatly appreciate all of the comments and support that this project has received though. It's the reason I post and continue this madness. Even the negative comments that I receive are appreciated because at least it lets me know that people care.

But where is the Blood community, and why are most of them unwilling to help or even offer a supportive comment on all of the work being done? Perhaps they're all too busy writing about how much they wish there was a Blood 3 and that Monolith should "release the source code".

Forgive my crankiness but I need a break. I'm sure that I'll eventually return to work on all of this, because I've never been one to quit anything I started. But all of these updates, screenshots and videos do seem rather pointless based on the limited responses that they usually receive.

If anyone ever wants to take time away from posting about how Monolith should "release the source code" then they'll know where to find me...
