That being said, the current course of action, regardless of justification, is actually going to get us a better game in the end.
Eh, I’m not sure about that. Sure, a more complete initial launch (probably still early access), but will 1.0 be better, or after that? Part of what made previous games good was getting user feedback early in early access. Sure, they played less complete versions, but it allowed them to direct where the game was heading sooner.
Also, how much does this hurt morale of the team? Are they still going to care about the project as much with their owners fucking around with the project? If they don’t care as much, the final product is almost certainly worse.
They are still releasing it in early access it seems, they are just delaying it.
The team is still getting paid their bonus, and they have more time to implement more things before the early access release from what I understand.
I kind of prefer my games delayed. Maybe its ready to leave now and the delay is a big scam but all im seeing is less pressure on the team making it and more content. For the rest, they can figure it out in court.
I assume the planned release date for 1.0 is staying the same though. This doesn’t buy them any more time. It only delays the time where they’d get feedback from the community. You can always wait for early access to be over if you want. This is all that was delayed, not 1.0.

Yeah, that’s what I said.
