so 20-25% does? Im alright with that as long as both are good.

p.s. they had to make it able to stand on its own for the people that dont want to play the game.

Wow... That's totally insane..

The article states everything it should as TV shows are Based on ratings. Its ties are deep enough for early relations of the video game but will remain loose enough that if it flops it doesn't have deep ties to Defiance's progression as a mmo. Pretty straight forward I think. They say they'll tie the two deeper together if the TV series is a HIT and LASTS. So...

WATCH THE TV SHOW!!!! LOL

[ironhands]

you expected it to be 100%?

the show is about ark hunters, human and irathient
the game is about ark hunters, human and irathient

should probably wait until an episode is actually aired before making any sort of judgement

it's impossible for the game to impact the show this early, because we haven't had time to do very much in the world.

had you read the article, you'd have seen where it was addressed that most of the impact will be in season 2, in the lull between the seasons when the writing is done and teh game is being played.

How much cross over could the show have between the game? They take place in two different states.
Does it really matter? They are both connected in some way or another.

I don't feel scammed, but I didn't really care about the show anyway

[tijah]

this game and tv crossover concept is a bit new and dangerous road to be taken imo, of course it's safe to assume that they are going to tip toe when crossing this puddle .

Really? Scammed? Someone hand the Troll an apple.

Id says 20-25% being related to the game is pretty sizeable.. you have to remeber they are two seperate entities in the same universe, while they do and should tie together, you can't expect EVERYTHING in the show to be about the game and vice versa.

besides the 20-25% is first season, which won't be impacted by players actions as it has already been made, the next season on the other hand will react to what has happened in the game.
