Nice. ED didn't work out for you four years ago, that's not a big deal it's just a video game.
Maybe you should look for a new hobby.
Stigbob, here's some things you seem fundamentally unable to grasp:
1) if it's "just a game" why do fanboys, spend so much time defending it - including you - if it matters little? Surely if the outcome of the game, and it's forumites had such little meaning to you, why are you even here? The fact that you are, repeatedly, shows that you are just as interested in what's going on as everyone else, so you're "it's just a video game" act isn't fooling anyone.
2) This game would not exist without my money - mine and everyone elses who stumped up in the KS - some of them many many thousands. One backer in particular with extra's ship models (that turned out to be very poorly made and
4 years late) backed ED to more than £10,000 GBP. Now, I'm not saying those who backed the game's posts are worth more, but the phrase "just a video game" is incredibly dismissive of that.
3) I'd also point out that
there are features highlighted in the KS that are STILL M.I.A.
And until such time as they appear I'm not playing, because I'm not the kind of person who is happy to "wipe thier save 5 times" just to experience the next bit of content.
There are many posts of people who have been playing since launch who have stopped or taken very long breaks, and only come back for a week or two to experience the new stuff, then leave again. I can't imagine how disappointing and disjointed that must feel for them, and they will only do that so many times before it becomes somethign they can no longer care enough to do - and with FDevs slow delivery of content, it could well be that they stop returning BEFORE the last major content is implemented.
I'm a patient guy and I can wait, assuming I don't die first of the conjenital heart issues our family seems to have.
When FDev said they were gong to be working on ED for years to come - I foolishly assumed it was going to be more like the MMO's whereby the "main" game is delivered with other flavors of content added later; as is what normally happens.
What I didn't expect was FDev to take 4 years and counting just to implement what has been done so far, with what I consider major sections of the game experience missing, planetary landings being just one of those.
People like you keep saying "if the game didn't work out for you, move on" and my reply to that is "the game I was told about 6 years ago, doesn't exist yet, so I'm waiting until it does" with the added caveat that I'll continue to poke FDev with a stick until they deliver; and deliver something better than placeholder after placeholder.
PS - ED forums are not my hobby - I scan them once to twice a day while I'm having a break from my work - most of the stuff I ignore as it's all been beaten to death before, but topics on NEW CONTENT that isn't making the players happy, gets my interest and I'll post.
Call my posts rambling drivel if you like - they are still more in tune and cogniscent of what's going on in the community than yours and don't have ridiculous phrases like "you're not allowed to talk about what you've not personally experienced" because that applies to pretty much everyone on earth; just where did you think all that "knowledge" in your head came from?
