i agree @robcat. i am happy to do alpha and beta test and would not mind waiting a little longer if that ensures a good start for DOS. i dont want to see happening to DOS what happened to "x rebirth"! horrible start for rebirth! but the game will get very good in the end i am sure, b/c egosoft will support the game as long as there is money ;-) egosoft is very supporting and community oriented in my opinion and experience, which - if you are a long time egosoft gamer - makes up for the mess at release
BUT it does/did great damage to the reputation regarding the game and the company concerning, well, all other customers/gamers :-(
so, i hope that
1) DOS is in a state that ensures at least a, let's call it, "safe release" and
2) larian will support DOS for a very long time - but judging from previous games i think that should not be much of a concern - especially since DOS seems to be a priority/favorite to swen
and of course if the modding tools deliver what larian promises this game will be modder’s heaven
