i reckon it will be out soon, but hey i would rather it be great than bad.

i would rather you hadn't said that than had.

It will be out when it will be out, be content with the fact that the developer has not died.

But we don't know that for sure. He doesn't post, he doesn't put up new devs, he does nothing. And it wouldn't be in the news unless someone murdered him, and who'd murder Dan Tabar? He's just too epic.

That's how we know he's not dead, his last breath would chill the very spines of people the world over.

Dunno, I know he's busy etc but he could ATLEAST post a log just ONCE in a while.
It's been a while since he posted anything update-wise.
Maybe he's expecting it to be finished very soon, that's why he doesn't want to make any logs, he wants to make a surprise.
But we need to be teased, otherwise people won't be interested.

The Overgrowth blog updates everyday, and they come out with weekly alphas!
I think they have a larger team, though, so I guess that's an advantage to consider.


In any case, an update would sure be nice. I feel pathetic going to this forum, not directly through datarealms.com/forum..., but always first through the main datarealms.com page just to just if there's been a new post.

I trust that he'll post when there's something outstandingly significant to post about: for example his most recent post on universal Lua implementation. If he posted every few days talking about minor fixes and algorithms then you'd get bored of the devlog pretty soon... alternatively, he amy indeed be aiming to surprise us, or otherwise, he may be taking a well deserved break. When you lack inspiration on a project and are instead working in response to the groanings of others the end result is invariably worse than if you had taken a break to refresh yourself.

Lemme just pose this question: how many of you have actually waited a long time between builds?

If yes, then a follow up question: how many times have you been genuinely disappointed by a new build?

Well there was that one time he released early because people were pestering him and then it took two more fast mini-builds before all of the debilitating glitches were gone.

Listen to this person, he knows what he's talking about. (If you don't get it yet, wait patiently and stop with all the bloody "I WUNT BULD 23" posts)

At least 4 times, and the second question, none.
I think it has just been getting better and better, but Data is becoming slower and slower.

JUST GIVE US AN UPDATE EVRY WEEK! We don't care if it's 'This is nearly done' every week, just GIVE US IT!

Before Grif eats you, no.

Grif has eaten me many times. I've learned to look on him not with hatred and disgust, but pity and disgust.
