Quoted from SilverBallz:

Just speak with your money. Don't buy new games until the code is complete. I stopped awhile ago. Too many issues and aggravation that can be avoided.

After XMen, I stopped buying NIB games from Stern. And I've stuck to it! Just now, I'm picking up a Met because the code is complete (old stock because of play field issues). I also favor after market Stern games that Lyman is lead on. Higher chance those games get completed because his personal commitment.

If we don't speak with our money, then we have no one to blame but ourselves. But then you see Batman66 sell out without pictures or pricing. The community is not united on this topic because getting a collectible is more important to some.

For me - I'll continue to wait and reward with my wallet only when complete product is built.

Quoted from Deez:

I tried doing this - but then I fell for that horseshit about Stern's commitment to code releases.

Quoted from Rdoyle1978:

Well, it is. The game works; I've played it. Yes, there are unrealised areas of potential..

Umm, inserts that don't do anything (per OP). I think this is why your definition of done is different than many others. Work at Stern?

Let me apologize up front. I just reread and that came across rude.

My knee jerk reaction is software programmers/developers, like whom I work with, who say after the fact - software is hard. "This is close enough"... "it's not a feature anyone is really using anyway, let's move on." Hogwarts.

Product Management spent time detailing use cases and customer requirements. Developers review, say no problem just dollars and days, provide a timeline, accept job and ask for funding. Then when you review the code and it's not matching up to requirements - "do you really need this?"...."it's close enough".

This is not meant as a condemenation on all developers. Just the lazy ones. Lyman, is not lazy. The others, I can only say their work speaks for itself. I assume you are not lazy either. So my apologies for the unfair comment.

Quoted from CrazyLevi:

This entire thread is a troll and you come off as a petulant baby.
You should consider selling your KISS, and also posting less.

When Levi and Cornelius return from their temporary thread eject, will the debate continue? Does Levi really wear sandals and that hat? If Cornelius keeps waving his arms like Levi says will he start to fly? Stay tuned. Same Bat time same bat channel.

Oops wrong thread.
