honestly, thats shabby. I wouldnt have bought the game if i knew then. There should be laws against false advertisement, seriously. They are still far away from finishing what they had had on their 2021 roadmap, let alone the other stuff like the northern and southernmost biomes which would probably encompass the endgame. I would estimate 2024 for a 1.0 build at the earliest with their current trajectory.
There are laws against false advertisement, but this doesn't fall under them. You had to click a special contract when getting this game that it was an EA title, meaning it was not done and is a work in progress. They are guilty of over ambition, not playing us false. An ambition they have since tempered and honed. If you've talking about that first roadmap they put out at the start of EA, they flat out said they're eyes were bigger then their stomach on that one, scaled back a bit and shifted focus to smaller updates with an eye for stability of gameplay. We've gotten the Hearth and Home update, we've got the (hopefully just start) of the Cult of the Wolf part. Combat has seen some updates, cooking was brought up to the level of other crafting stations for complexity, and a ton of build items, armor, weapons, enemies, and the like have been added since H&H. They're doing a hell of a lot better then most EA titles.
Slow and steady wins the race. Burning out the developers means everyone loses.
