I guess this is an easy poll. Im getting very anxious to play this game in full release. I don't even enjoy the old MMO I have been playing to occupy my time. Every time I go log on it I start thinking about elements of SotA, including players.
I was very addicted when I first heard about this game, as a fan of the single player Ultima games, this was a dream come true. Unfortunately, the more I hear about all these MMO elements along with the lack of info about companions and the things that made the worlds seem alive, the more my interest fades. Although I have finally started reading the Blade of the Avatar and am very much enjoying it. This alone has kept me from selling off my pledge.
I feel the same But we should not debate about these things here, but help the devs and mods to keep track of the singe player concerns. The SPO and SP Offline thread seems to be the right place for this.
I think I am a typical SOTA player; slightly long in the tooth and hankering to recapture the good old days of my first Mmo 'addiction/love/hate'. With age comes some wisdom and some maturity but most of all patience; after the initial enthusiasm for this game wanes slightly I am prepared to wait. If they can get it right it will be worth the wait, but...... it will almost certainly be incomplete at release and far from the finished article we all hope for.
Depending on how long the tooth, you may be playing this from the great beyond by the time it releases.
