I'm tempted to buy it just because.
Even if you don't like the game which will be hard for most. Supporting a developer like this is never a loss.
Yeah, imo they fumbled at the start very bad but all these continuous updates really made it one of the rare open universe space games.
Releasing in that state shouldn't count as a fumble. I'm certainly glad the game has turned around and wish no ill on Sean or the team...
But the game absolutely deserved all the bad press it got and Sean did lie to the public multiple times.
For introspections sake, I'd have probably folded like a paper crane and made the exact same mistake, give the pressure he was under but he's only avoided the permanent moniker of "This Gen's Molyneux" because the team bunkered down and delivered on his promises.
