    I’m not getting excited until it actually releases and the reviews come out: I’ve been burnt too many times by companies releasing unfinished games at absurd prices.

      Yeah, based on past experience and the sheer amount of development hell this game has gone through, I’m pretty certain the only way this game is ever good is if it can pick up a community that supports and refines it to a lovable mess, the same way VTMB1 was. It was (and but for the scant recent announcements, still is) in such a state of uncertainty that they fucking refunded the preorders, and while it might just be a show of good faith, that doesn’t ever happen unless the publisher has no hope the game will ever see the light of day.

      I would love to be wrong and pleasantly surprised if/when this game does finally hit the storefront, but until that day I’m going to wallow in the knowledge that the game will never be as good as what we imagine it could be.
