No, it's not worth buying. I would never play it in the state it's in. The content that's in is all unfinished with varying degrees of polish, there's no extras like intro/cutscenes/character customization/ etc.

Honestly beyond checking out the mechanics of the game for a couple minutes, it's not worth buying, and I really question why they would release the game like this into Early Access. I mean surely you don't want everyone experiencing your SRPG in an unfinished state? It's just completely and utterly confusing to me why anyone would do this unless they were desperate for the money

I do believe it's going to be a great game, but it won't be done for months from now instead of the 1 month until the supposed release.

You should read Swen's blog post about early access to understand why would anyone release an unfinished product to the public : http://www.lar.net/2014/01/14/steam-early-access-is-a-good-thing/.

The pros outweigh the cons. In the end, consumers that don't understand the meaning of alpha/beta access will be put off of the game, but on the other hand the developers will get the feedback and the funds to make a better game.

The game seems to have some awesome potential but at it's current state (the alpha) it's not worth playing because it looks like there's ton of bugs and random crashes. Sad

That's true.
It worth paying but not playing. It won't be fund for you, it will be suffering for anyone who wants to enjoy good RPG.

@Kein
Yup, that's why I'm not playing Wasteland 2 either yet because I'm just ruining it for myself if not playing the final product. Sad
But yes, this game is worth buying for 40USD (not 40€ tho). Surprised

I read it, it sounds way more like he's justifying it to himself than really fully considering the ramifications.

The jury is still out on Early Access and whether it's a good thing or a bad thing. Let's wait until this generation of Early Access games turns out imo

You know what I meant.

"RU" versions are the ones priced at ~$15 and sold in Russia and CIS. And later on, when the game is released, it can be "labelled" RU by steam and region locked.It happened in the past if I'm not mistaken.

There are no Russia and CIS specific versions. There's only one for the whole world which means they can't label it RU and lock it since they'd be locking the game for everyone outside Russia and CIS.

No, it didn't. Unless the package/sub labeled as such initially - there won't be any changes.

Considering the state of the "Early Access" I'm not really surprised. I doubt it will be out by summer either, try autumn at best. Still a goddamn shame, though we should expect it from all Kickstarter projects, all of which have far too generous release estimates

Good, at least now they can do this, instead of butchering their vision and releasing a pretty different game, like it was in the older days when they weren't doing everything on their own with a publisher. Swen also said that the release of Dragon Commander taught him even more about this whole thing since they still released that a bit early. In any case, I'm nothing but happy about this, I'd rather they spend more time on it if they feel it's needed. Plus, I wouldn't have played it now anyway.

The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.

Why would you think after June? Up until now it was supposed to come out next month. They didn't give any new date for this delay.

I just wonder how stupid they would have to be to have expected this released last year. I mean, take a look at it now and you should wonder the same Laughing

On another note, this wait is killing me! game is really fun from what i've tried of it!
