Honestly, these threads are not worth making for now. If he ever makes another release date and we get close to it or he finally uploads something to the steam servers, then we can get back on this delusional bandwagon.

I don't think Grimoire will ever be a finished project. Though I do not believe it's all elaborate trolling. While Cleve's posts on RPGCodex, Steam and other places definitely look like trolling, I don't think anyone could keep up a single troll gambit for 23 consecutive years. The game, his forum posts, his blogs, etc. That's just too much work to be just a troll.

What I think, is that Cleve Blakemore is simply a delusional and narcissistic version of Tarn Adams. The guy is insane and I use "insane" deliberately, because this isn't just autism. I honestly believe that, whatever he has, it's much worse than that.

Where Tarn realizes that his Dwarf Fortress is ridiculously ambitious and that it will take a lifetime to complete, Cleve's deranged belief in his own infallibility leads him to claim again and again that he'll soon finish his game. Of course that belief turns out to be false every single time, but he's too insane to realize that. To protect that belief he will never be ready release the game, because it will never match his 'perfect' vision.

And where Tarn's modesty and kindness causes him to give away his life's work for free, because even though it's highly acclaimed and many people would gladly pay for it (I've personally paid a fairly generous sum for it over the years in the form of donations) it's not about the money for him. He enjoys making the game, and he doesn't want to charge money for a game that at best will take decades to be completed. But Cleve, completely full of himself and his own genetic superiority, has openly said that his game is worth hundreds of dollars, and that the $40 price tag is just a compromise.

For Tarn, Dwarf Fortress is about fun. Both the fun he has making it and the fun the community has playing it. For Cleve, Grimoire is about proving a point. It's about showing how much better he is at making games than everyone else, and it's the community's job to be grateful for this gift he is bestowing upon them.

I think that's partly right but why would Clive go through all the trouble of drumming up interest only to not release anything after so long?

Why even put the game on steam if he really has no intention of ever releasing it?

>why would Clive go through all the trouble of drumming up interest only to not release anything after so long?
Because that's what he does just about every year since goddamn 1997. Steam just helps him reach a bigger audience this time, which is why /v/ is suddenly aware that he exists.

Seriously, there are posts of him going back to October 1997 saying that the game is ready for release, but he just needs to fix some minor bugs. The exact same excuse he has used for every single missed release date. He's a narcissist, he craves the attention more than anything. He doesn't give a rat's ass about how people react when he disappoints them, because he knows full well that people will still pay attention the next time he does it, partially because they're curious about what'll happen this time and partially because there will always be new rubes that get pulled into his roadshow.

I actually want to play this game. It looks very unique from what releases nowadays and i would love to try it out. Im not joking im dead serious. If he releases it within the month i will buy a copy and maybe even one for a friend. I want to ride on turtles and solve puzzles while fighting ancient and unique beast, i want to craft reagents and auras then plow through bosses using wit and cunning, i believe in cleve to make this game a master piece, a master stroke, the wall of his cave.

The game has already been released, but you need a quantum computer and a special download client in order to get it. Sorry, folks, but your peon computers (PCs for short) cannot hope to run a game so expansive and intricate as this one. It's a 1:1 simulation of life itself. You NEED hyper-advanced hardware (HAHs) in order to run it.

You know it's kinda funny comparing this game to the cave art of the Neanderthals. Cleve says that the fact that they redid strokes hundreds of times was for perfection but in reality it was probably just a ritualistic reapplication to prevent it from fading away. They weren't obsessed with perfection, they were just lazy and didn't want to lose what they already had. A lot like Cleve hyping up his game all the time, it's not the perfection he claims it as, it's just the same shit every year
>>
The story of Grimoire is similar to that of Duke Nukem Forever. Broussard was obsessed with perfectionism, just like Cleve. The final product proved to be poor.

This does look rather neat. That said, I'm not getting my hopes up. Instead, I'll play other games of this type. Which of the Might and Magic games should I start with? How about Wizardry?.

>>383648595
Start with Might and Magic 3.
>>
>>383648595
Might & Magic 5 (Worlds of Xeen) or 6 are the nicest ones to start with. They are all bit Special in this sense that they involve lot of combat like in a musou game. 6 is probably the best in the series but that's arguable. They have this campy feeling and humor as well.

Wizardry... Start with 6,7 or 8. You could start with 8 because that's the most modern if you can say that.

>>383648595
MM3 or 4+5 if you can stomach turn based tile based.
MM6-8 is hybrid real time and there is free 3d movement, much easier to get into.

This is stupid

There is NO GAME. It's a demo that has been changed bits here and there for attention whoring because the creator is MAD. He's an autist, an aspergite, a lunatic childish manboy.

There are people who have played the complete game when it was in beta near 2005 or so. We should appeal to these people to put the binary on MEGA. There's one guy at least on RPG Codex and one guy on Neogaf (and this was even earlier than that). And Cleve himself mentioned couple of names too. So there has been other binaries around than just that 'superdemo' from 2013.

Well the vanishing point is literally at the center of the screen. All the tiles need to be in 45 degree angle. There's no need for real 3d at any point. Just 2d grid. It's very simple to implement. I.e. Akalbeth from 1979 was probably among first ones... Richard Garriott coded that in Basic.
>>
>>383649692
Looking at Cleve's code

{
if(FlipCoin())
{
RandomSay(3,4,5);
}
else
{
RandomSay(7,8,11);
}
}
}
else
{
if(Amicable())RandomSay(7,8,11);
}

So if flipCoin is successful character will say 3 first random possible things, otherwise character will always say 3 other random things. Even the formatting is literally retarded.

He says "autism" doesn't exist.
The way people treat those with "autism" is actually an inherited fear response because sapes naturally fear thals. Instead of admitting they fear superior thals, sapes have invented an imaginary disorder to explain their inability to socialize with thals.

I don't want to spend all my time just shitting on the guy, but I bet it's not his coding, but his personality, that puts people off.

His coworkers even put Cleve into Jagged Alliance.
>>
>>383656254
>So, Mentone huh, wonder if you can see his house on google maps.
Probably and comparing to the photos on the other site where his bunker was maybe that's one possible lead. Of course there is a possibility the bunker is not on his yard though.

I'm sure there are lot of bread crumbs around the net we just need to piece everything together. Probably social engineering would work and calling to one his previous working places and pretending to be a tax collector or detective or any other b.s. and asking about Cleve's previous address would work.

I'm sure google maps will come handy especially if we get more reference photos.

A small group was started up in Australia to try and make the Stones of Arnhem game. However, Cleve was at least brought into the main Sirtech offices in New York once (or at least met/talked with Sirotek) when the company decided to cancel the game. However, canceling the game unhinged Cleve and he 1) started work on a "true successor" to Wizardry, and 2) started spreading stories about how awful, dumb, manipulative, incompetent and sape everyone was at Sirtech on Usenet (and later other internet forums).

It's clear that he made an impression on other Sirtech branches, lol.

Ha ha, yes, the true sign of an inferior species. Also Sirtech made Cleve gain 80 pounds in 8 months and he will not be able to lose it until Grimoire is released.

I have a feeling Sirtech's former employees have a suspicion as to how Cleve "created" Grimoire, pic related.

That will work and then just by following Cooper Blakemore's twitter for example we can find probably something.

Probably people on Rpg Codex know where Cleve lives. Also doing 'whois' on Cleve's various domains could be helpful. There's so much little bits and things which can be combined together. Because people can successfully doxx some streamers as well it should be doable with Cleve too. Especially with him because he's been around internet since early 2000s.

>>383660029
This may be a silly question but don't we literally know his name already? That's like most of the damn work already.

Wiz7's graphics are so grainy that I don't think it will matter. Wizardry has never been a series that boasted of stellar graphics.

>>383660029
why go through the trouble of harassing the guy? Letting him spin his wheels is all the entertainment a person can ask for. Just think of future anons, ten years from now, learning a combined 30 year history of Grimwah, Cleve, the Incline, and saps? It's all part of an endless tapestry of shitposting, timeless and ageless.
