There ARE some bugs, like the trading one, that are rather important. And it boggles the mind how they got through beta testing. Also, I think I might change my tag line to "Give me back the 2D interface, or give me death." That said, there are no "game breakers." The game is a lot of fun, and it is quite reasonable to expect (based on past history) that it will get better. Aaron has a whole month before the Christmas present-buying rush, and then a month after that before gamers start spending their Christmas cash.

Getting back to Fiveangels's original post: There are now 3 reviews, 2 very positive (but honest about some shortcomings) and 1 very very negative. Really, I think one star is way harsh! Anyway, I think Fiveangels's suggestion is a good one.

Let's hope Gamespot doesn't review it yet that's for sure

But I like the 3D interface myself.

Gamespots review was very fair given what they had to work with. They pointed out some good things such as the game is going to be supported and improved, and that it has great potential. The bugs just killed the review though. We all knew this was going to happen, as did SFI and Aaron, but it was a gamble and lets hope that the end results pay off for them.

I started trying to clean up this thread, but frankly I've already spent too much time cleaning up other people's immature posts this morning. Locked.
