I love this series, but am a little disappointed b/c I expected so much MORE.I expected an awesome game because of the almost 6 month delay, but all we got is the same old vv as we have always had
If you are disgruntled by the game, well that's why they have a
free trial. That way you can decide if you like it before you buy it.
This game is a progression (sequel if you prefer) of the Virtual Villagers games and the story of Isola. It was never intended to be a completely new type of game, just a new chapter in the story. I hope there are many more chapters to come.
The reasons a game may be delayed are too numerous to mention here. There are
thousands of lines of code to be written. Then they have to test, retest, and finally test some more. Finally, there's a little thing called
life that impacts game development.
They met their announced target date, just on the far end of it. IF you recall, the original announcement was for 4th Quarter 2009
or 1st Quarter 2010. Technically, they had another 37 days to release it, so just be glad it came out when it did.
