If i learned 1 thing on my time on this website it would be.
"Never, ever watch a popular game thread around a release date".
That horny horde of idiots that resurface around that time asking the same stupid questions over and over and over again, very bad for my blood pressure.
Personally i would lock a popular thread around a release time, or only give access to active/well known members and such to prevent the horny horde of idiots who only create a account to ask stupid questions around that time instead of using a little bit of common sense and use the search button or even checking a couple posts back.
As for this game,
I haven't tried it yet because i have a couple trust issues with Icstor because of his previous abandoned/rushed projects and really don't want to get into another game of him only to have it thrown away when he has another idea for another game.
However...... As this is going to reach the 0.5 mark and it's getting harder and harder to ignore it every month i think that it's time to try it out when the 0.5 comes out.
Very curious about it all
