RE: a few questions regarding the castle horror series

There was recently a crackdown on the forums for pirated content. Getting the 3d models requires reverse engineering from a different game, which is against the lovely terms and conditions that nobody really reads. When you buy a game, you're really buying the license to play the game, not the actual content itself. This prevents other competitors from stealing assets and such.

I think that the move to remove download links was agreed upon by Frictional themselves, as they don't want their game to have pirated content in it. Don't quote me on that one.

As far as people flaming the content goes, there's a bit of an elitist mindset around these forums. Quality is expected and, well....(Note, this is my opinion) the stories aren't very good. They seem slapped together and hastily made, with little actual storyline. When creating a custom story, it's expected that you'll have a story attached to it, with some actual thought put in. Having random things fly at your face is a cheap tactic and not scary, really. It's startling. which is a human reaction to something approaching you at a high speed.

So, that's my viewpoint on the matter. Perhaps others will agree, and perhaps others will disagree. That's just my input. *shrug*
