I mean I get that, but this isn't a AAA game release. It's an update to a game that's been "done" for at least a year. Kal chose to make the Gold Edition and specifically polish the game. In a lot of ways he did, to be clear (UI, new companion, art edits ect.), and I don't want to understate the pain in the ass it is to take a game and transfer it to another "engine" as a developer myself. In many ways, this rushed release came with way more bugs than playing 5.8 alone, though, which is extremely confusing as it was released, which to my understanding, was with the assumption 6.0 was it, not a beta of the Gold release, which is basically what it became.
A lot of people are probably in a similar boat to me, haven't played the game in years are were excited to play a "polished" and great version of it after all the years. Coming back to a buggy mess was really shitty lmfao
If this version is really clean I'd love to change my mind, truly. Where it stands right now it just seemed so half-assed.
