I think for me, it literally is at the top of my list (my current Adult games Trinity is The DeLuca Family, Being A DIK, City of Broken Dreamers, with DeLuca at top even out of those 3).
I'm having a feeling new gameplay mechanic is gonna be great. And for those who don't like it, well Hopes said there will be option to turn it off (for me, it's not something I prefer, since it would really feel like I'm missing out on content, especially with these revamped contracts & mission gameplay having their own stories in them).
No ETA yet. Can't speak for anybody else (and not to put any pressure on you Hopes
), but I'm personally hoping we can get it either end of October or perhaps early November (though even if it takes longer, I'll be patient in waiting).
