View Poll Results: Which best defines your SE:V feelings based on the Demo?
SE:V is not ready to be sold. It needs a lot more work to be ready. Selling it now would do more harm than good for customer relations and hurt the overall success. I am willing to wait for a more refined product. 35 32.71%
SE:V should not be sold in its current state but could do ok on the market if released now. I'd still rather wait for a more refined game. 24 22.43%
SE:V could be sold now with moderate success. Based on Malfador's history of product support, patches will be issued. But I'm worried about the chances of improving the UI with patches. I'd wait to release. 32 29.91%
I'm pretty happy with the current state of SE:V. Based on the Demo, it should be sold soon. If patches are released or not, it's a pretty good game. I'm anxious to get the game soon, release it now. 12 11.21%
I think the game is good as it stands. I think the issues being raised are minor and can pretty easily be addressed in game as it stands. Most games have minor issues and I'm not complaining. Send it out! 3 2.80%
I am completely satisfied with SE:V based on the demo. I don't care if patches are ever released. I don't think the issues being raised by a small number of people represent the silent majority of potential customers. I am very anxious to get this game 1 0.93%

Except that Ive already bought the game (but would rather not vote that way). And there is also not one for "I think SEV went the wrong direction completely".

I was wondering if it was too soon to poll the question of whether they should be an SEV forum.

You said it, Brother.....

The game will ultimately be judged by the "good" points vs the "bad" point. If there are more good points, then you could still play the game and enjoy it. If the "bad" points are really bad then even "one" could be annoying and overshadow all the good values. I have many games that play well but have annoying points to them. Still, once you know of them and how to play around them it does detract from the game a little bit, BUT not to the point where the game is unplayable. This is a choice we all make in every game we play. SEIV has many problems with it still, yet they are small problems that don't affect the game play. Some of the posts I've read about SEV state that the game is just not ready.

I still think that this should not be labeled as a Demo, but as a Public Beta.

I'm loving it, but since I'm a veteran SEIV player, its a little easier for me. I'd hate to see someone walk away from the "Demo" thinking that its final, since as we all know, Malfador doesn't ever stop fixing things...
