I would guess that he's actually exploring the campaign mode now, so he can write his preview before the game is released to the public.

Either that or he is kicking back smirking at the petulance on display.

Why not sir, dare i be so fool hardy as to think it my right (Indispensably necessary) to pester, should i hope to obtain some obedience to requsitions of daily input.!! Consistent with the arrangement of some mockery in between, to dampen ones, lets say repeated instances. Certainly not, come about men.

I doubt the campaign mode is included in the preview version.

Nah, I'm through making videos, and with the game coming out in two weeks, not enough time to do a preview. Most of you are not buying the game anyway.

Yeah sure...these naysayers will be making that purchase a few weeks after release or when it is half price. You know how many bargin bin skippers were created when SH3 was $9.99? SH4 has it bargin bin skippers also. SH5 will have it closet purchasers skippers and bargin bin skippers.

I don't blame you. Makes sense to me.

I'm sure there will be alot of disappointed members tho.

So far all your vids have been picked apart instead od discussed.

We all lose until we get back on track.

We all need to put our anger on the shelf.

Thx for trying Neal.

I'll buy it no matter what the price...when I can play it.

Until then?

You will see Steve. The mods will start coming out. You already posted in the first thoughts mod thread in SH5 mod forums. Folks are already going, "Hmmmmmmm......I wonder if....." It is only a matter of time and the naysayers will have it.

A lot of folks have made a principled decision to not buy it with DRM. I don't think previews or mod discusssion will sway them. If the DRM goes away, they'll happily jump on board.

The nitpickers, I think, are a relatively small bunch. I think they'll likely will go ahead and buy the game anyway.

i bet the people on the Titanic said the same thing when they watched those silly people get into the lifeboats just because the ship bumped something.

EDIT: I'll answer here since the thread has moved on, by nitpickers i mean those who question things and not just ignore them and only see things they like. another way to describe nitpicking is to notice what isnt done correctly

I'm not quite sure what you're getting at. By 'nitpickers', I mean the folks that greet every screenshot with cries of "epic FAIL!!" Do you mean to say those folks are ones seeing things clearly and taking to the lifeboats and those trying to see the positives are the ones foolishly going down with the ship?

not trying to pick a fight, I just didn't understand your comment.
