Giant bear abominations you say?

I'll just leave this here.

wormbear

I read that as wombear. Three times.
Pictured a cross between a wombat and a bear. Which would be, I guess, a wombat....but bigger?

Alternatively a bear with a bulletproof butt and a pouch.

Two years after initial announcement and it's STILL not ready for even early access?

... I don't think they really had ANYTHING programmed 2 years ago, though?


Did they?

Because if not, 2 years to get a game up to early-access levels of acceptability (rather low, to be sure, compared to a full release, but it's still got a certain level), that's pretty acceptable time-scales.

Did you pre-order my post? What gives you the impression that you have a right to complain?

The assumption that you have to pay money for something or be otherwise invested in it to be able to complain about it is deeply flawed.

Yeah, keep bickering out of the thread, please. We have a nice thing going here, let's not screw it up, k?

I made a single comment about Clockwork Empires and was immediately told "SHUT UP... YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE AN OPINION".

I wouldn't classify that as a 'nice thing'.

As for bickering... Explaining that people are allowed to complain about anything does not constitute bickering.

So hey... any news on release?  I have not kept up with this thread, but am interested, and if recent conversation is anything to go by, then trawling through recent posts won't be pleasant.  So, any news of release, pre-alpha, demos, or anything?

Early access is coming soon according to the Gaslamp Studios blog. It was supposed to already be here but they pushed it back to Summer. It'll probably be in early access for 1-2 years if other games are anything to go by. I assume no demo seeing as that early access is essentially paying for a demo of the game already.

I don't mind waiting a little longer for a quality product, nor do I mind paying a little bit up front for the beta of a game from a company that has already created one game with several expansions that I have enjoyed a great deal, if Gaslamp ends up going to a paid beta model.  I haven't really paid any attention to whather or not that's the plan, because I trust that they won't even do a paid Beta until it's something worth throwing some of my money at.

This comment is partly in reaction to prior comments of yours.  You do realize that Toady is probably going to release the most recent update to DF after a two year period spent working on the game, right?

Granted, DF is absurdly complicated, and Toady works alone, but the Gaslamp Games team is doing no wrong here.  Two years or so from concept to playable game does not seem excessive.  Pushing back testing / demo versions when the game isn't ready is also smart, because when a studio sends out terrible demos, it hurts credibility.
