You could make a survey and list all major publishers to see which one the fans prefer best...... I said this hoping the community is trusting me enough to make the right choice if we don't select the preferred publisher by the community.
Well, everyone has their own opinions and you guys are in a better informed position than we are to decide the direction your company should go in lol.
Glad to hear this, as well that excellent news! Unrelated question - will you go big on marketing this game? (like big posters in major cities, banners in metro systems, etc?) I want to see Eternal Crusade do really well!
Agreed. Considering it is your team that will actually have inside experience working with these companies I would leave the decision up to you guys. ; ]
One of my requirement from a Publisher is that we keep the ''special marketing'' (arg, interaction with fans, kill a dev day, etc..) and the publisher do the traditional marketing like banners, adds, E3 booth, etc.. Yes, I want to market the game but I want to do it differently, not traditionally. The team and I want a healthy growth of the game, not a faked hype for launch then nothing. Eternal Crusade will be treated like a RESERVE wine that is made to get better with age.... not a young wine to be consumed within its first year of creation.
Hmm, for a shot at the BETA I will get the BE logo and the Eternal Crusade tattoo'd on my back. That would be a break from tradition
