Your sacrifice and dedication may one day help us to see half of what COE was meant to be. TLDR: Will those who apply pressure on Caspian to get the game he marketed, ever get a word of thanks from those who accepted the loss and justified Caspian’s every move? I for one would like to say a big thank you to those spearheading the class action discord all the while leading your busy lives. How can I be so certain Caspian is only acting because of consumer pressure? Well I’m not but if I take into account the fact that the Abyss post talks about possibly including the already made Alpha 2 mechanics in a “Kingdom’s of Elyria”, the uncertainty as to whether there will be further development, and the fact that the KoE Caspian showed us does not look like it has been in development for several years but since the lawsuit was filed, I can confidently say that consumer pressure is seeing this to the end not on Caspian’s terms, and I doubt his most devout supporters will ever thank those who kept up the pressure on him for the entirety of Elyria’s post-Abyss development. There are those who are giving Caspian too much credit while criticising the very people who are forcing Caspian to produce. I’ve seen similar arguments made in reddit and discord with respect to what we are seeing and what we are getting. When the majority don’t accept it however, they may end up with a better game than what was given. Since their release, they have improved dramatically and while we can’t definitively say it was due to consumer pressure, i think it makes sense that had the majority of people accepted the states of these games, devs could then move on to DLCs/the sequel/another game. Many of us saw a minority of the community blame criticisms of these releases on players setting expectations too high, on online whinge culture, on over-exaggerating the issue, and some even went as far to say that there were no discrepancies between what was marketed and what was released. When the likes of Rome 2 and No Mans Sky came out, there is an extraordinary amount of pressure to get it fixed to the level that it was marketed.
