Re: Maybe the wait is worth it
have you gotten anyone to agree with you yet on that?

Re: Maybe the wait is worth it
But I've already pay for it.
I'm not new to pre ordering: little, high quality houses must have an almost-sure sold base to afford investments.
But it's the first time I'm charged at the moment of the pre-order and not on shipping.
So the pretty talks "Yohoo!! We love to wait! The game will be better and better!!" are a little out of place, since I've bought it already.
After the time they charged it the only thing to do is to haste, it's sad but it's so.

Ah well man, take it easy. We all want to play with the game, but we cannot do anything, just wait patiently.

Re: Maybe the wait is worth it
Hmm, Beorne has an interesting point there. And it is also the point that make us try to finish up the game instead of adding new stuff. New stuff get added, but more on a this issue can't wait till first patch basis. I'm not very good at giving myself deadlines, so an external deadline in the form of presales is good for me.

Re: Maybe the wait is worth it
I'm that way with the projects I've done. Things done for a job or school get done with much more alacrity than my little home projects.

I can manage school projects, but I've never completed my own little projects. Well, actually I did ONE program that worked. It was the mod converting little program.

Re: Maybe the wait is worth it
There's plenty of other games which keep me busy... Civ_4, Dom_2, AgeofWonders:SM, TitansQuest, SpellForce_2, Neverwinter_Nights and a few others. It's easy to find another great game to play while waiting... so no hurry here.
