Its frustrating, but at least they're (supposedly) being transparent. As far as I know Threshold hasn't charged for the game, and actually took and responded to our input here on multiple occasions. Let them figure it out and hope for the best. I'd rather wish well for a dev that isn't hostile to us than piling on.
I've got no problem forgoing drabbing an extra drink at a game/bar to toss them 5/mo versus a lot of others out there paywalling unfinished games (let alone the ones using licensed characters they make money on) and screeching non stop in 1-2 out of every 3 patreon posts.
It DOES feel like the labyrinth stuff is a massive hurdle... but it seems like they do have a solid bit on the content for the zone after it fleshed out a bit. They seem motivated, so we'll see. Cautiously optimistic, with a touch extra leeway, I guess. Better than the $50-60 a year on glorified roster updates for a few sports games I used to shell out for every year.
Also, I see the left side of the bell curve still keeps hanging around this thread bitching about a game they openly say they'll never back with a signature being a "fan" though lmao.
