I'm sure the above statement is more true for some than others, but ongoing delays due tend to test even the most patient individuals.
And I think I read somewhere that hope delayed makes the heart sick. Not sure how many people this might apply to, but I want to keep as many cool players connected to the game as possible.
So, I am posting my thoughts and reflections which will be followed by a few questions.
Overall Positives
1) Wulven Studios is an amazing company and in most ways it is putting the customer first every time.
2) Kyle is extremely generous (more than any other for profit gaming leader I have ever seen)
3) The leadership of Shadowera is also extremely awesome in my estimation.
4) The forum community is amazing.
5) The game itself is great and getting better all the time (as the players actually get access to cards atleast)
Constructive Observations
1) It is almost impossible for Wulven to estimate anything accurately despite their best intentions to the contrary.
2) Almost everything always takes longer than the leadership states they think it will.
3) Wulven Studios in the gaming world is a small company and shouldn't necessary try to be like the big boys yet (shouldn't try to release full complete sets error free every 6 months for example (which is a great goal btw))
4) It seems the new hero art was a recent decision which if true might mean the official release might at some point be delayed by the new hero art.
Questions
1) Does the customer (those who play the game), prefer incremental releases?
1) Is there any chance Wulven will go back to incremental releases? In my perspective it keeps the game much more fluid and the meta always changing. It keeps the game from getting stale. There seems a lot of positives to this strategy in my opinion and I don't see many negatives from a player perspective.
2) What are the negative to incremental releases and why is it so much better to release a whole set in one shot? I've heard that 'it doesn't show proper balance' because all the cards aren't released at the same time, but there must be something more significant than that.
Thanks for your thoughts.
