Yeah, I tried the demo recently.
Not bad, the rpg stuff is paper thin, but mounted combat's pretty cool. I played nothing but instant battle.

Wonder when they'll get around releasing 1.0 to those of us who paid at version .3

Don't be a smart arse. "Rushed to retail by publishers, unpolished" titles don't count.

God, take a joke already.

Seriously, who pays for beta builds of games?
You don't believe them when they say it's done?
Or are you really just saying, "Seriously, who pays for indie games?"
I don't know, though. Has anyone got the release version to see how finished it is?
What's your basis for thinking it's still incomplete?

Sorry, I should've been more specific. I meant paying for the builds of this game prior to this "complete" retail release.
EDIT:
Right, after doing some reading it seems that the development of the game was mostly funded through this practice. Fair enough I guess and kudos on them for completing the game.

Oh yeah, I thought about that at the time, too.
It means the final price is cheaper because you get access to the release game as well, but not too much cheaper.
Edit: That's an even better explanation...

How much cheaper depends on when you bought it. I think it was like 12 bucks when I bought.
Simply put, how many people would've bought an incomplete version of say, GTA4 for half price knowing they'd be able to upgrade it to the full game when it was released? Then you tack on that modders have been working the game hard since like .3, and the result is that you're paying less and getting more now. Seems like a good deal to me.
