Hi. We’re making adjustments and will share the details on Sept 17. Big changes take time, and we want to do this right.
PS Store pre-orders will be refunded on Sept 8. You’ll be able to pre-order again before launch on Oct 21.
Thanks for your patience; we’ll share more soon!
What big changes? You wanted to lock content behind DLC to maximize profit and that was the criticism you faced. All you needed to do is not to charge for it, crisis averted for now. Then again, I am not sure I’d consider buying a game that started out like that.
Sigh. There are just too many things to play, do, worry or think about to fuck around with people who have already shown you who they are. I liked the original game, like 20 years ago, and I’ve liked hundreds or thousands of other things in between. What I’m trying to say is these people can go fuck themselves. I don’t care if it’s the publisher, it’s the whole crew they came in here with. Fuck off.

No game suggestions, friend requests, surveys, or begging.
No Let’s Plays, streams, highlight reels/montages, random videos or shorts.
No off-topic posts/comments, within reason.
Use the original source, no clickbait titles, no duplicates.
(Submissions should be from the original source if possible, unless from paywalled or non-english sources.
If the title is clickbait or lacks context you may lightly edit the title.)
Sounds like the right move. A game with a cult fan base like this is relying on positive word of mouth to bring new people in.
Locking 2 factions behind a day 1 paywall when the game already has shaky PR was a death sentence for the success of this game.
I would stress that it’s unlikely this was a Dev decision, likely the publisher wanted these parts of the game nickel and dimed.
For what it’s worth, I don’t think anyone ever considered it was a dev decision. Every comment I saw on the matter was cursing Paradox specifically.
