Do not release 0.3 without Druid.

Or you'll be criticized on every platform possible for sure. Which will end up like 0.2 again.

You increased the league lenght to 5 months from 3 months. If you can't release a brand new class which is the most anticipated one in that 2 extra months, I don't think we should be playing your game anymore. The increased time between leagues will be seen as a lazy route, which will be fully criticized.

I love this game, but you are killing it. Don't do this. Make sure 0.3 is actually packed with a lot of new stuff. A brand new act will not be better than a brand new class to the franchise and that class like I said is the most anticipated one.

Or what?

As long as the endgame becomes more playful, I will be satisfied.

Considering that early access was supposed to be just 6 months... not a good sign...

Right? I don't remember them ever saying six months. But then again they might have and I dismissed it as laughable. I remember 1 year being what they said, which I still felt was laughable. Last I heard it was still 1 year, they just said it will release without all the classes or something. Which. Wtf. OK I guess. The only real difference is not needing to pay to get in to the game. But sure feels weird to release a knowingly incomplete game to that level.

How long is Early Access likely to run for?
As long as needed, we expect at least 6 months.

Of course you could argue that "at least" can be anything from that point to infinity...

Who cares if you oneshot whole screens in form of bear or in form of human?

And why is the Druid so important??? I see nothing special at all right now with the current class choices. If they did release the Druid it would be so broken and give players something new to bitch about.

You couldn't argue since it is a demonstrable fact, as you've noticed yourself already.
No game development company will ever give you a precise release date for an early access game way head of time. That would defeat the whole point of monetizing something before it's ready and using that to fund development for as long as necessary.

This format has upsides and downsides, like everything else in existence.

As long as the developer is acting in good faith by working on the project and patching it with regularity, then you should know what you signed up for and simply wait until it's ready, instead of producing deadlines out of thin air and then trying to hold somebody to them.
