Quoted from Whysnow:

nobody is up in arms.
This is an honest question based on his past 3 games. Are GOT and SW really "finished"
Is GB really getting more polish?
When I look at Stern and the perpetual issues with delayed, buggy, and sometimes very basic code on release, Lonnie used to be the common denominator but seems they have given him a bigger team to support him and we are finally seeing more polish on his games and more can now be deemed "finished".
With Dwight I see him as 3 for 3 on modern era games that are not yet "finished"
It is a reasonable question.

It better not be finished. I don't play it much but my wife plays every day and she get to. We came we saw..... and We're ready to believe you ....which is not coded in the game.

This is the Sole reason I wouldn't buy a NIB Munsters, which I love by the way. Will buy one in 3 years on the used market as that's probably how long it will take to get finished.

Stern should ship us the games at their cost and when they're done with the Code in 2 years i.e. GB, then we will then pay them in FULL!

OR PAY them 1/2 now and then 1/2 when they finish

I TOTALLY agree with you...and that's actually what I've done

Quoted from underlord:

The more you know the better your pin choices. Munsters pf looks ‘safe’. But history shows long term staying power may be questionable.
When I bought Twdle the code was unfinished shit. Lonnie went on a three week vacation to France during launch, cuz reasons. Software was freelanced to a third party to finish. But borgs pf design was solid and I found myself hoping software would improve. Lyman stepped in and saved the strong design with even better code.
Dwight is no Lonnie Ropp. But he’s no Lyman Sheats either.

So why don't they just have Lyman take over and finish this thing and polish it even more.

Too bad it doesn't work that way
