If you don't want to pre-order, don't. But don't just assume that the cancelation of a playtest means the game is broken.

Announcing they've gone gold, two months prior to launch, is surely to assuage doubts that the game is being rushed or incomplete.

It's the correct move, and shows that they believe in their product. Hopefully it isn't a deception.

Genuinely hope this one turns out great, as I loved the first game.

Saying “we finished” doesn’t equate to them believing in their product, you know what shows they don’t believe in it? Canceling the play test. They’re gold with two months to go, yet no beta and we’re supposed to take that as “the devs believe in their product!!!”??

I too hope it is a success but come on now
