So it just doesn't feel right for me to play the game in its unfinished state, so I've been forcing myself not to play until the full release or whenever I feel enough has been added and the game is polished enough for my taste. However, I'm really starting to fear if not as many people will be playing by then. If my assumptions are correct, the majority of the playerbase right now is mostly the biggest POTCO fans from back in the day who stuck with the remakes and never gave up on them. When I see my brother playing sometimes on ship material runs, there is a ton of huge upgraded warships all with their own hunters on their tail fighting together in a fleet, so this made me think that the most enthusiastic fans of the game are the majority even more. However, even a game as great as POTCO/TLOPO does eventually get less and less fun. Nothing lasts forever, and that is why I am worried that when I actually decide, "Sweet the game looks polished and all these new features are added, it's time for me to play," a lot of people will have already played the game so much during beta that they won't feel as interested in the game or want to play it as often.
So, do you guys think their will still be a thriving community of pirates by the full release? Are their others like me who only want to play the game when it has been fully revived? Will it be a huge struggle to ever find a good SvS battle going on, because my gosh SvS is like tied for looting for the best thing to do at lvl 50, and I don't want everyone to be burnt out on it but me when I get a good ship ready for some privateering. Are my fears legitimate, or are they unjustified and I'm just worrying too much?
Wow this is long, guess when I'm really into something I could just write for hours lol.
