How far behind are we actually?

It seems to me that for such a core system as caravans to only be to the point where a very linear display example is possible (one that might have also been shared at gamescon_...it seems to me that we're in for quite a wait.

Obviously that isn't good news, however we aren't in this for good news, we're in this for a game. Development has ups and downs, and we've clearly heard absolutely very little in terms of how the development is going. I don't know about you, but Crowfall never made me feel like I was being deceived.

They earnestly showed the very ugly early workings of the game and their improvisations with the play tests to get people something somewhat fun to test, while they worked on stuff.

I very much find that appealing. Whether or not you wish backers to sign an NDA or not to keep as much of the ugliness mum to your future buyers I don't mind, but sitting here twiddling my thumbs completely in the blind, isn't something I feel shows that I've been appreciated in the leap I took to help fund the game.

It's too early to call 2021 but it's nice to see that the overall feeling of this thread is positive.

Would you settle for a pair of slightly worn socks instead?

I have a cookie jar with the word "phylactery" written on the outside.... That doesn't count?

On a side topic... I guess Voldemort was a Lich.. Not sure why my meat-noodle didn't put 2 and 2 together faster.. lol...

Know that you mention it he would be classed as a lich

Both the words “horcrux” and “phylactery” sound dirty.

They only sound dirty if you're a dirty perv, you horcrux stroking freak. If you don't like it, you can stick it in your phylactery.

I can do soul gems, I have all these pointless souls of humankind lying about anyways.

I recently purchased an Alienware r8 with i9 and rtx2080ti because I thought this was going to release soon.

Should I hold off on that purchase and wait to get one when it releases?

Depends how much money you want to spend. That hardware you bought will last you a few years regardless. Intrepid intends for the game to run well on any system, but of course we won't know whether that is true until much later on the development process.

Well I spent $3000 on this one with dells sale. And they haven’t shipped it yet, because it needs to be built.

I might cancel it if this game is that far out.

Was going to buy the alpha testing and beta bundle as well.

You'll be fine for years to come with that setup. If you want to wait, you can... New hardware this Fall, but that is every Fall..

I played Apoc on my i5 Ivy Bridge with a Geforce 760 2GB Card; ran fine. I will be upgrading but people will not need bleeding-edge hardware to run this game (BR or MMO).

I cancelled my order. I know the machine was going to last. But I want the newest technology when this game releases. I’ll order a new one once I know this game is actually releasing.

It will be a pain if you actually dislike the game completely and realize all the waiting was for nothing. Your own choice, ofcourse.

I thought this game was going into alpha 2 testing. I didn’t know it wasn’t even in alpha 1.

They have a long way to go. Next year about this time will be Beta 2.

Is it worth playing the pre alpha free game to see how the gameplay is?
