Has the "magic" gone? - Page 3

Just wanted to see how other folks felt about this game now. I remember almost a year ago this time, we were all devistated when the DEV team informed us that SHIII would be delayed yet again for another few months. The days, weeks, and months went by so slowly. The excitement was too much to bear, but most of us came here for some insight and hoping to see a new screenshot or hear a precious breath from the DEV team that the game would soon be shipped. Now that those days are gone and over with, how do you feel nearly a year later about this game..

I honestly am beginning to look at it much the way I looked at SHII after playing it for an incredible length of time and just about couldn't stand to look at it on my CD-ROM shelf when browsing through them to find something I wanted to play again. I'd get so bored just looking at the case of the game that I had to go to the store and buy something else that I didn't even care about just to entertain myself some more. I know, how sad! Now, I am getting that way with SHIII, and I now find myself depending on MODS to rekindle that special feeling I had before SHIII came out! I'm afraid however, that despite all the hard work and efforts that the community has done to improve the game, I feel as though we will soon run into a dead end without the SDK that could be so useful to build much more and much better MODs.

Anyways, that is my current feeling and I am starting to look forward to Operation Flashpoint 2, Xbox 360 and a few its games, as well as the PS3. I never thought I'd ever go back to a console but damn, some of the games on Xbox 360 and PS3 are looking quite awesome.
