So I'm getting ready to play this, is it worth it? I'm getting the impression that it's been a long time since an update?
It's been a very long time since a decent update dropped, perhaps we'll see one this year perhaps not, ICSTOR isn't exactly being consistent with this game, long story short he did a good job with the early updates, burnt out a bit took a break and did another couple updates at a slower pace including a Christmas special, then he went on break and has done very little since, he even hired another guy to do the renders for this game and decided to move on to a new project. Is the current content good?, yes, it's pretty damn good, will we see the game finished? hard to tell, i wouldn't hold my breathe for it any time soon.
If we do see it done it will take a few updates to do well, probably three updates minimum(of a comparable size to earlier updates) to see the game finish in a satisfactory manner and more than that to see it done to the level of quality that we'd hope for, however ICSTOR has been very flaky with this game for a while, he doesn't have the attention span to dev the same game for more than two years and i understand that, it sucks for the player though. If your willing to treat the game as onhold or abandoned to ovoid disappointment then play away, it's pretty good, if your wanting to follow the game on a per update basis like you would for CoBD then it may be best to skip this, just my opinion or wait and see if it gets finished, ICSTOR hasn't left a game unfinished before though he has rushed one or two, so we'll see what happens.
