Do they do it for free?

Hello,

I am wondering if the discussion moderators do it for free. I can only imagine the development budget has gone toward fielding large hordes of janitors.

This is the only reasonable explanation I can think of for no significant updates in like 2 years

Thanks.

I agree. I've been waiting to play again, but I can't find a reason to since there's nothing to do since I've completed the game.
Waiting for the mistlands is becoming tiresome. I'm glad they enjoyed their success, but they could be adding a ton to this game. I hate when game companies hit a knockout at release (EA/whatever) and then waste a lot of opportunity they had to make it into a game worth remembering. And I'm not interested in waiting another two years for anything meaningful to come out.

Bannerlord, for example, was a complete washout after TEN years waiting. Sick of this stuff.

Edit: Also, yes the JANNIES do it for F R E E.

I was offered a mod position. (Turned it down.) You don't get paid to be a mod.

Go play something else if you don't like waiting.

Done in 6 months? That's way too generous. I've seen a thread in another EA game where people were complaining "There's been no patches in over a year" on a game that was released 5 months ago and had 14 patches in that time. I'm not even exaggerating.

Time and reality bend to the will of these maniacs.

It has actually been more than a year and a half. This is a pretty long time considering very little has been added.

Its an EA game... whats the rush??? it will be done when its done!... sadly patience is no longer a virtue... in this swipe left /right TikTok. Boom Boom world. let me add a simile. i dont like microwaved lasagne.. However slow cooked with layers of bechamel sauce that takes overnight to make it...but such a delight when its done.. more my style.. eating it before its cooked..the taste can vary considerably..that would be "Rushed EA Lasagne" no thanks :-)

Its been nearly two years without a single Major update... so yeah, im for patience to, but at some point its okay to say "hey, they are taking an awfully long time" which they are.. longer then most small other dev teams need by far.

Put a bit more effort into your "thinking".
