So far it looks better than good. We'll see.

Also, please be on PS4... considering that it's basically a gaming PC, they should really consider a port.

Toon_Link4510d ago

Totally agree I've been in the alpha and the game is way better than it use to be.

Crystallis4510d ago

They said it will be on the ps4, but their main focus is ps3 right now.

TheHardware4510d ago

I am almost tired of waiting for this game now.....I read the beta forums and....its always.. "coming soon", "very near", "final stages"

listen I want it done right too, but gawd this is killing me,you wouldn't believe the amount of stupid stuff i spend my money on now, when it could be going to this stupid stuff...

Abriael4510d ago

Better late and polished than now and unfinished. It's not like there's nothing to play in the market in the meanwhile.

BLKxSEPTEMBER4510d ago

Do you not see this happening during development? Like, why are we apologizing after the fact instead of stopping it during development?

Stopac3d ago

Criticism and reflection occur after the fact. The apology acknowledges the past criticisms with the new expansion and they're keeping transparency with players about it. Now that they've acknowledged it - it will be interesting to see what kind of cycle we'll get with a new expansion and I wonder if they're planning something special with beast master since they didn't mention it in the last live letter.

It's all good, as long as the price of the product decreases.

Stopac3d ago

The base game and expansion go on sale all the time and doesn't stay full price for very long since a new expansion is on the horizon.

If you're stating they should reduce the price of new expansions or the sub fee, no, that's not gonna happen lmao people aren't even complaining about that. They are criticizing the same old pattern of content that releases and how it is devolving into mediocracy.

"They are criticizing the same old pattern of content that releases and how it is devolving into mediocracy."

The product should be cheaper then.

PapaBop3d ago

I was unhappy with DT and have spent far less time in it than any other expansion but it's things like this that makes me respect Yoshi P. It's rare for such a high profile developer to be so candid in his assessment on a live game.

Stopac3d ago

Same, i've found my self resubbing every two patches instead of keeping it up. Don't own a home in the game so there's no point in keeping a constant sub going. The post story is getting interesting though.
