Bowing out as this goes in circles...
Being disappointed with FD for not giving hints about upcoming premium DLCs is completely justified. It's been a long time and FD being very careful as usual with signaling is overdoing it themselves.
That said all these legends how FD not gonna do anything, how they gonna leave ED, how it is all a scam, it is heartening at best because with all Beyond updates I see devs being very dedicated to make game better.
Sometimes - well, most of times - we are looking for confirmation for our emotions about something and to feel justified. It is not a bad trait but it is a bit vain one. Situations are complex. Sometimes people are just bad, but sometimes you feel bad about people because they have disappointed you and that's basically it.
That being said, FD is on borrowed time here. They have to come out with decisive explanation how things will move forward. Stretching it out to let's say next year will create more confusion and I think community team has understood that it is something they should address.
For the love of God, someone please close this thread!
