I don’t really care which route you take at this point. We need an answer rather than you dangling a carrot in front of us for months on end. One of the biggest problems that led to your “we heard you” tag line was lack of effective communication. You aren’t living up to that tag line. If you hear us, you would realize we aren’t a bunch of toddlers you can string along with promises of candies and rainbows. A lot of us have invested a lot of time and money into the progression of this game, we are your customers, and we will be the lifeblood of this game via our continued monetized contribution to this game beyond launch.
Now, I will stay regardless as I love this game but I do believe that those who contributed to the progression and development of this game through pushing its limits, testing its functions and providing inputs to your team deserve a “reward” for that time and effort. Personally, if there is a wipe, I just want the talent points I’ve acquired during my time as it directly reflects the time I’ve spent. But that is just my opinion.
What I truly want to see is an answer to the most pressing question that your customers have, as it will directly contribute to the direction they take between now and launch. Don’t make the mistake of dangling carrots, people will eventually give up on you and move on which will definitely damage the chances of this game succeeding.
Thank you for bringing it this far, hopefully we can continue down the path of a great game.
