I think that's a bad look. I bought the game on steam, not discord. I'm not against branching out but maybe finish a game that looks abandoned first?

It is what it is - pretty common by todays standards

Why would i ever buy something from this person again? The dude straight up lied to me a few times in discussions.

People say we have a beta update for the game for months now. The dev can't even be bothered to write a short news post.

Can not trust this dev.
Why should i have to clutter my discord sidewall?
Dev sells game on Steam. Steam has perfectly good discussion boards and easy ways to post news.

Done with this crap.
So glad VR has finally found its spot on PC in sims. No more dealing with crappy foolish untrustworthy sketchy devs that change their name after every crappy game release.

Well clearly thats your perogative. Everyone has different standards of whats acceptable to them as an Early Access or Solo Dev. For instance -im more outraged by Bohemia selling Reforger with a SIngle Player tag when it has ZERO real world Single player available whatsoever. They also dont answer in their own forums and maybe will speak up in their Discord -with a quick snippet of an answer.

I find that far more outrageous way to treat a player base by a pretty goodly sized staff. On the other hand games like TOG1/2 I could clearly see it was a solo dev who probably isnt that available but I found enough enjoyment in the games that it didnt bother me so much.

So to me, its more egregious when larger games also only respond via discord but keep them responses slim pickens as well

agree with op

I'm pleased to hear this dev is busy on a new project.

Absolutely not. There's a lot of features being tested right now in beta by players on both TOG 1 & 2

So basically he still can't be bothered to make a news or forum post on the platform he sells the game on. Also, there was no real point to making this early access when he could have just hunkered down the way he is doing now and released the game when it was finished.

Just another nail in the coffin of early access for me.

R.I.P then

it has been updated several times, you just need to switch to the beta branch. right-click on game, properties, beta, select beta branch

This dev just drops janky crap that he never works on and leaves it.

Absolutely ridiculous how much work he could put into Tales of Glory yet here they are... Screw this dude.

Well I suppose if developing a game was all about looks, you'd be on to something there. Worried about everyone's opinion on looks will only slow down the game even more.

Look as in how your reputation is perceived, not graphics. So yes, I am on to something.
