New interview with Oleg and Ilya

[Space Communist]

People are so negative. Reading that interview all I get out of it is a sense of tremendous potential for this sim. It will be a heartbreaking tragedy if lack of community support cuts it off at the knees.

The best thing we can do now is just get out there and buy the game! 50 bucks is a small price to pay for even a chance at what this could be.

There is a huge potential, no doubt about it. And I will be the first to buy it once it becomes playable.

Aside that, 50$ isn't equal to 50€ they are charging for it here in Europe.

Big dissapointment with many feature missing.
It's more than obvious that the release was rushed and that OM is no longer the boss since long time.
My opinion is that game was stuck and OM had to call IS to make it and IS asked for nothing less than everything.
OM just kept the "leadership" while real boss is IS, who, it seems had no problem in releasing a half developed game and then try to complete it.
Different philosophy than OM's, but at least this philosophy brought that game (not what we dreamt of) alive.
So many things missing or still in development...

In any case, we have what we have, we should support it and let's hope that in the end it can become close to what we've dreamt of, back in 2005 when first discussions about SoW started.

+1.

Pointless speculation.

Oleg is undoubtedly in charge. At least as far a this game is concerned.
