your post pretty much sums up my feelings...can't say this is a pleasing thought.
I didn't go into details in the original post but in all honesty, I do NOT need the CE now. It's a fan purchase, I have a lot of work, a lot of games (100+ games backlog) but I would appreciate, when I pay something and it's late, to receive some update at the very least! An email about a week delay, two, one month? I don't care as long as I know about it.
This is f****ng communication for god's sake! Get your sh*** together Larian and DO inform your customers AND supporters, because next time, they might just skip your game.
