At this point, I'm just looking at all this as an interesting social experiment on sunk cost fallacy
I wonder how long they can go without delivering on anything
I think the fact that they are very very glacially slowly delivering on things at least, all the while self-discovering software development instead of learning it, that aggravates me even more. Bloober Team could finish this faster and more competently than these clowns...
Glacially is OVERstating how much and how quickly.
Especially compared to their original predictions.
We already know what happens with long term sunk cost fallacy. It is a scam.
well, they are still slowly actually adding more stuff to the game. I dont think they intend to scam anyone since they occasionally allow people to play the game for free and without that i would have been inclined to buy it many times now to see what kind of game it is (and would have felt scammed). Now i just keep waiting for them to add enough stuff for the game to be worth getting, but after hearing they might add somekind of p2w shop crap i think i might just forget about the whole thing if it really bad.
Its too bad if the game collapses at some point since it really has promise. I resent them for first fucking around with the money they were given and making it all seem like a scam even when there is potential for it to not be.
No one denies the game has promise. The problem is that it does not have much else. Having ideas is the easy part in game development.
the promise i see comes from things that are actually in the game. Though it still needs more to be worthwhile, so i'm not risking my money yet. They just need to add more fun things to do and fix the problems with what they already have and it would already be kind of ok, provided they keep adding stuff.
The times I've had with this game over the years I feel is well worth the cost of dinner at an fairly upscale restaurant or a night out drinking.
