I so don't understand this mentality much of the thread has.
I can understand skepticism. Shit I agree with it, because it's not like BioWare or EA is instilling confidence, especially after the Andromeda 'post launch support'.
I can understand and agree with anger at the state of the game and the launch. They really sold a stinker wrapped in advertising And customers paid for that shit full price.
But I don't understand the hostility towards stated attempts to fix it. If you paid for it, they're not requiring more money (yet at least). If you didn't, it's not costing you anything. And if they pull it off, it helps build their experience and reputation. If not, they still can gain valuable experience and insight from it if good faith effort is made.
I find it funny that some of the posts are minimizing the NMS comparison. Your right, the context with NMS was even worse with a horribly botched launch, seriously deceptive marketing, from a first time developer, and a game with the thinnest of content. In fact, reactions to Hello Games early attempts to fix the game, even with the first and second patches, was met with the same kind of scorn at times that mirror reactions here.
I think they have the ability, capacity, and talent to turn the game around. Question is if they have the commitment and discipline to, and only time will tell.
