Quoted from jawjaw:I would say don't buy any game unless you are happy with how it plays at that very moment. This idea of buying a game you know is broken but expecting it to be fixed in the next few years is beyond my level of understanding. Even if it is Lyman on lead, you don't know if he is going to retire or be stuck working on other games.
Easier said than done. Realizing there are bugs, exploits, and necessary polish needed in game doesn’t come from 20,30, 50 plays....most of it comes after hundreds which seems to follow suit why Lyman revisits games years later, to fill the gaps so to speak and truly consider a game finished.
