Lladz got a reaction from GalloInfligo in Galactic Republic of Planets - Reopen for Business
I guess the only question that remains is who gets to be Jar Jar

Lladz got a reaction from DarthVader in Questions to DEVs.
New here, but i cannot stress enough how much i agree with Number 2. I think it is important to keep an air of mystery about the game as its developed in order for any significant interest to build. I have been a part of multiple early access games where the core interested population gets burned out from seeing everything in the alpha/beta. Even worse, i think that sometimes the buy-in for alpha reduces the quality of the testers and brings in people that are expecting a more polished game and maybe aren't quite as ready to spend time in the grind finding bugs and providing constructive criticism.
Alpha should be for testing and i think a kickstarter is a good idea, but i think the early access needs to be done on a more private scope where the emphasis is on improving the game and not publicizing it.

Lladz reacted to Cybrex in Imperial foundations.
Also, good thread. Like the thought you've put in to it already, but alas, it isn't for me.
