Squeenix Contest
Journal Entry: Sat Apr 5, 2008, 11:49 AM
Firstly, i see people complaining because the lack of "ZOMGAWESOME" prizes, If you were venturing into the realm of using online art sites to host contests, would you personally put an assload of money into it? I doubt Square-Enix would, it wouldn't be very good business to throw a lot of money into this [i]just in case[/i] nothing comes of it.
Honestly it doesn't surprise me in the least that the prizes aren't amazing but for what they are it'll get plenty of Squeenix fanboys interested and people love free stuff so DA covered that half. It's the usual fare for DA contests, as far as i know, to offer free subs and shirts and stuff.
Also, it's not like people don't expect DA to be a little shady, i remember people not so long ago complaining about DA trying to steal the copyrights to their work because they changed the Terms and stuff. Whatev guys.
Either way, the only thing that annoys me is the lack of clarity as to what they want from the artists, that's just stupid. If you want people to make character designs just say "Design a character inspired by the videogame and have the chance of winning said game!" instead of giving this longass roundabout explanation.
I think a lot of people have a bug up their asses about nothing because of the disclaimers, from the sounds of it Squeenix were hoping for an awesome entry they could use to their advantage so they disclaimed themselves from a lot of shit. The likelyhood? They'll get a pile of shit entries and a few mediocre ones and maybe 10 good ones that win the games.
Let's all calm down a little, watch a movie, drink some vodka and get shitfaced. That's what the world should be about.
