    Yeah my husband and I are also thinking of increasing our pledge significantly but I just can't see us spending a lot more money on this until we see some more substance. I mean there is just too many unknowns at this point. Then of course there are those on the fence who haven't spent any money at all. It would be nice to have some more solid information to give those people. Not bits and pieces of stuff some of which might be monthes old and maybe not even fully accurate anymore. 6 months ago the fluff topics on the poll might have been satisfactory but now with the game releasing quite soon there really is no more time for fluff.

    Updated Votes (current through post #85):

    • Housing 19
    • PVP/Death 35
    • Combat/Magic/Affinity 46
    • Crafting 29
    • Fishing 28
    • Multiplayer/Instancing 29
    • Single Player Offline 21
    • Character Customization 23

    If you, like I did, just put a comment about not preferring the topics listed in the poll and did not actually SAY what other topic(s) you would rather they cover, please do so in order for the actual interest in each subject to be measured. Several of the last few posts did not have any votes, but indicated they disagreed with the poll choices.

    I voted in the poll, but will also vote for deep dives too. Why? Because I think you should take the top 3-4 topics from the poll and the top 3-4 deep dives and do both. You could combine them all as one list of votes but I suggest not, since even the most currently voted deep dive would rank 8th and would not make the cut. That's not to say there isn't enough interest in them, it's just the way polls work. People will use the poll but not read the thread.

    So here are my Deep Dive votes:
    - PVP / Death
    - Combat / Magic / Affinity
    - Crafting
    - Multiplayer / Instancing

    Think we should just ignore the poll. There are 5 pages in favor of deep dive compared with that lazy poll of non-important fluff.

    Yea, I almost missed the deep dive choices as well. Plus, take into account, its easier to click a poll choice than make a post and type out responses. Not too much effort lol, but still a bit extra work :)

    I disagree. The topics in the poll are very valid and some of which I strongly am in favor of.

    Agreed. I feel that the topic of crowd sourcing needs to be covered.
