    I…will…stay…strong. No playing before a year after release. 100% done and with mods. Already bought on all accounts…

      I’m never usually an early access person, but Unknown Worlds has a proven track record. They’ve released two games from early access after a very open development period. Plus they fuck over Krafton if it sells well, so win win IMHO.

        Oh no, I don’t worry they won’t finish it. I worry playing half a game 5 times and starting again for every “new cup added” update 😁 Like I did with the previous titles.

        I just want a complete run “for the first time” this time.

        Aye, I remember trying subnautica on my friend’s computer, and being happy enough with the game as it was then to buy it. That’s still my ‘test’ for buying early access games: would I be happy if the developers literally died today and nothing more was done with it, OR is it less than $5 and I’m really happy with what progress has been made towards the game that I want?

        This is how I’m thinking about it. Plus, I can buy the game and play it once it’s completed. There is no obligation to play it the second I download it

      Good luck! I couldn’t hold out and I hope I don’t regret it too much. The game is already good but I’m trying to give useful feedback so it’ll be even better for everyone later.

        Who am I kidding… I’ll probably fail somewhere along the line and also play it. “Juuuust a lil bit”

        But at least i try 😁

        Yeah in the previous titles I bombed them with reports too

      Just remember: if you buy now, you can help fuck over Krafton.

    That’s a lot of sales. I was going to wait, but it was a slow day at work, so my boss bought and played it the moment it went live. After seeing him play, I wanted it too. I bought it that night. I didn’t factor it into my decision buy, but I take joy at imagining certain dickheads at Krafton watching those sales numbers shoot up.

    I’m glad this is heading in a good direction. Im not strong enough to wait a full year past release but I will at least wait until the 1.0 release.

      Buying now fucks over Krafton so buy now.

    I liked the first one, didn’t play Below Zero.

    How is 2 so far? How does it compare?
