Disappointing but better than releasing a half finished mess. I remember when they announced, I was predicting February or March was more realistic and was surprised they were far enough along to say October. Think most people were thinking the same timeline I was. Funny when people with zero inside access have a better read on your progress than the studio heads.

Saw their ceo posted a website he made. Interesting approach, seems to make more sense than the current dogshit websites that track video game scores.
videogamescritic.com
And the details on how it works.

Their original timeline definitely seemed to be very ... ambitious. Did Mahler say anything about public testing for classes and other major changes between now and the new date? I still think it's a really dumb idea to just dump it all in 1.0 with only a small amount of feedback and then trying to put out all the fires at once post-release.

There’s an open beta test in December. No information about the closed one but assuming that’s happening before then.

Started playing this with some bros yesterday and will say it's a nice change of pace.
This is a huge step up from the spastic nature of Diablo/POE gameplay that I just find obnoxious and quite frankly boring. It's by no means perfect at this point, but it's working from a strong foundation to build on imo.
Not sure I would enjoy this as much solo, but for a small group of friends this game hits all the right spots for my gang.
Also the art direction is perfect.

When is it supposed to launch. I've been keeping my eye on it and haven't wanted to touch it until I guess 1.0 comes out, but it definitely looks cool.

They announced an october release date then like a month later said "no haha that'd be crazy, actually we'll release in march". So for now the 1.0 date is march, exact date later.

Cool, maybe I'll pre-order it or buy the beta during the holiday sale this year if it's still cheaper and maybe goes on sale prior to release.

Buy it during the winter sale. The price is going up when 1.0 drops so 30% off the current price is the cheapest it’s going to be. December is also the class open beta so you can preview that too. You also get a few minor rewards for buying it before January that you can’t get afterwards. A sword skin, a name tag thing, and a free house that has Ori Easter egg in it.

Coo,l that was my plan. I know it was discounted if you bought it before 1.0 and I was hoping at least it would also be discounted during the Christmas sale.
