    I did not bite and will avoid it until 75% off GOTY edition all DLC in etc. Patient gamer through and through, burnt way too many times. So far what I read about it, it not optimized, it’s shallow, lacks polish, etc etc. Basically, a standard AAA fare, something we sadly grew to expect from major studios. Will be watching it for a while to see what I’m missing.

      There’s no reason for studios to behave better when they get a bazillion pre-orders and games make a profit before they’re even released. When that dynamic is in play there will always be an army of MBAs who point out that the purpose of the company is hyped releases and everything else is strictly secondary.

      So to sum up, I agree. I won’t be touching this until it’s mature, stable, and on sale.

        I have no arguments against it. Do your part and let us know if we’re missing out on anything. How does it stack against No man’s sky?

      I’m even planning to wait until the game is out on GOG, which could be several years from now.
