Why is this fandom so vehemently against sharing?
Take this crappy game for example. It took them about 5 years to create a few crappy demos and they still don't have a real working version of it with acceptable combat, inventories, missions, graphics, etc.
But in this 5 year timeframe they never once released the assets and source code to let others have a knack at it and see if they can do a better job than them.

But how else will they be able to become horse famous and make all the brony dollars?

Its because they want to have a monopoly on this project, likely for egotistical reasons. Its a shame that they're so unwilling to, because maybe their works could have been improved, or they could have found others willing to pitch in from outside of their little circle, but it is what it is.
Maybe they'll have another beta ready for the public by the time the series is shifted into G4.5 or 5.

>Download second life
>Create a pony
Seriously, that looks worse than second life. And in Second life you can actually do all the things they want to (and still haven't) implemented in their.
And it doesn't even look good.

>hey let's only have the servers online for a few weekends out of every year rather than all the time
>oh fuck people use that private server thing let's rewrite all the networking so that stops working
the project isn't important, the ego of the people running it is. they can open an OSW and have tons of people download their game and connect to their server (if it was up all the time, they wouldn't have a bunch of people connecting at one time), so they can feel proper horse famous

>little circle
Their "little circle" currently consists of 107 peopleplus 99 "past contributors", and of course they are perpetually "hiring" for all positions.

No trademarks -> project is C&D-proof. But they still refuse to open-source it on the grounds that someone might mod in porn, and then Hasbro's dumbass execs might come after them instead of the modders for some reason.

Wait, they rewrote it so private networks don't work? That's supremely shitty.
>>
>>26853200
at the least, that was a side effect. they've never liked the private server being a thing. one of the updates they rewrote most of how the core networking works, couple of us went through disassembling various bits and it was changed so much it wasn't worth working off the original private server base. maybe when a final release rolls around someone might start it again (if they don't just release the server)

I wish someone would just hack/social engineer into their system, downloads all the assets/source code, and then releases it all over the place so these faggots finally fuck off.

>social engineer into their system
Can't be that hard, given they've had 200+ different people work on this thing, I assume they basically accept anyone with a moderate amount of talent
