I'm holding out just fine and will continue to do so. From what I've seen and read about the game so far its the same old story. Unfinished and riddled with bugs. It could of been something grand if they'd been given the time and resources to actually improve upon what came before.
What it looks like to me is they tried to please both simmers and casual players, yet didn't really do right by either group. I count myself in the simmer group. I want dials, knobs, rivets, rust and depth under keel dagnabbit! Not this morale management silliness. I know there are mods now for many issues, omissions and if not there will be in the future. I guess I'm just not too keen on having to pop the hood before even playing the game yet again.
But the main reason I wont give them my money is the intrusive drm. Just adds salt in the wound.
At the end of the day they couldn't pay me to play this.
