Ah, okay. Your previous post was suggesting something different to me. Yes, I think the game was supposed to be done a long time ago. But then TFP suddenly had a million-seller on hand and could afford to extend their target from a small indie-game to say something in the A or AA category. Many players have profited from that as they bought a small game and got an ever growing game. It is a simple fact that not many here will share your sentiment, and not because of fanboyism but cold hard facts. We profit from this. In fact this is one of a handful of games I play for longer than 5 years. For most of us it has been a very positive development.
Also, TFP has been on this course for a long time and they commited to follow it to the end. Their development speed was always slow, certainly slower than any non-programmer seems to be able to understand and with more growth they also added more features. I am sure they neither can nor want to change course now.
As a programmer I have always underestimated the time I needed for any software project. Even after knowing that I underestimate times I underestimate times, especially when I not only want a somewhat working program but a polished one! At the end of development investing double time to get a small linear increase in quality. I understand how it comes that they often overestimate how far they are along with a feature.
So, you can choose to accept that TFP isn't done and it isn't sure it will be done in 2025, as the timeline is, again, slipping somewhat. Or not. The latter choice means more disgruntled posts from you here in the forum against an unsymapthetic crowd that doesn't understand why you can't simply wait until its done. Unless you are 90 and at deaths door, in that case you probably can broker a deal with TFP to give back the game.
