I have the $45 steam pledge now.
I haven't tried to log in since they banned AA's forum account though...
Who else, Caliya I know you do, still have access to play?

Im sorry I dont have the intellectual capacity to comprehend its a work in progress and to appreciate the amazing monthly updates to the addon store is really the game development cycle, nor am I capable of participating in constructive feed back on an amazing combat system and work in progress. If only I got in at the bottom level. Ill be killing it on release

But did you know it's a work in progress?
Needless to say, I got my money back and got the fuck out. Didn't link it to my Steam or nothin'! Suck it, Dick.

I guess I'm one of the only one's here to still have my full Kickstarter pledge (it's also linked to Steam).

I haven't tried to log in since they banned AA's forum account though... Did they do this recently? If so, that's exceptionally childish; yes, they know now that AA is the same as IM, but as long as AA was posting within the rules, and "he" clearly was, as he wasn't previously banned, what does it matter? Either you believe in the public standards you've defined or you don't, but to make personal exceptions because elsewhere that user has expressed thoughts you don't like is incredibly thin skinned. Oh, and to add to the topic, yes I still have a Steam copy; I made about $150 cashing out my Ancestor account despite having to buy a new one all the same, just before the market crashed I think. No one I know is interested in the game however, so if I do ever properly play, it'll be to run through the single player content just to see what it was actually like, and then shelve it I expect.

Did they do this recently? I'd say within 120 mins of Lum reviewing my profile it was gone. It was pretty quick and it was done without thought as an automatic reaction to the InsaneMembrane. I don't think I can blame them. They are hurt and they want to punish me, it matters not if AA is clean, in the end we're the same person. I do hear what you say! But we already know they are a bunch of Glass Joes over there, I think if I has posted a poll to all of you as to what would happen before I did it, every single one of us would have voted they would permaban me for a third time.

I had to keep a 45 dollar pledge, but as soon as I sold my account I uninstalled.
There are still a few over there who think that within 6 months they will have a full 40 hour single player story to follow.

Unless they are hiding a massive amount of work on a Quick QA build somewhere... Not going to be the case. But they have a very good sliding window of things, in a few months when they don't have it, they wont really care and will just believe what they are told about the next few months.

If you arent part of the cheering squad you are not welcome so i sold. This is one of the basic concepts I was trying to point out early on the blog. Not only were you not welcome earlier in the project they, including moderators, ran you out of town. Do you know why something like that is bad? Well, you're posting in it lol I am really going to enjoy when SotA is finally finished and in a status of Release. If it ever gets there to any official definition of release. Then I want to see what people are asking for and how the Devs respond and how the community shapes up. They are getting the community hooked on monthly update/release crack now, early, and after release it will probably still be there so when people have a go at the release status Devs will be all "well we're still patching based on your feedback!" and they will be "omg omg thx I <3 u so much devs xoxoxoxox"

An update feeling like the game has changed. I won't sell the game because I'm not that heavily invested. They owe me all the episodes. So figuratively I shouldn't have to invest anymore to see the project to the end. Unless something magical happens it will be hard to see it finish. Their projection timeline is going to be 15 years at the rate of production. It still only takes me 15 mins to know if what I'm looking for has been fixed. I'm still waiting the controls to feel like I'm playing a game not a resurrection of the platforming from U8.

If you read the quarter update, as of a day or two ago, there was some confusion by everyone on that. I haven't checked for a Dev update on their questions about the wipes.

Well I think they were trying to pull a fast one and apparently that one did slide. What they said was some of the most vague crap I've ever read in my life. Might as well of thrown full open loot pvp in there with it. I'm going to bet they don't go through with stopping the wipes. At that point they can't deflect criticism with pre-alpha.

"Until we see who Q1 plays out and announce our Q2 plans the finality of a hypothetical mid summer wipe is a bit like Schrodinger's Cat. I know that vagueness is frustrating and for that I apologize."
