From what I have seen I think this forum is usually welcoming and quite respectful , much more than many other game forums that I know at least. One problem I see is that comments that represent any kind of criticism of new features or the difficulty in general receive little support, and are almost always met with opposition, especially from more hardcore players. That's why I don't usually bother commenting here much on those subjects, and I suspect that some new players might do the same. On the other hand, I will always defend and support this game, which I love, and its developers, here and anywhere.

5 months with snow on the ground, which is the norm here in a "temperate" start, corresponds I think to the climate of Finland, Newfoundland, or the coast of Alaska, in case anyone is interested. I'm used to it by now and probably helps to the challenge, but it is not very realistic.

I honestly never would have imagined so many negative views among Vintage Story players. Personally, I have probably invested over 1,000 hours into this game, which is one of my favorites and most highly valued, and I have not even reached the current endgame content yet, since VS has so much going on that I am in no rush to get there. For my part, I feel that even though the game is not completely finished, I have more than recovered the money I invested in it, and that every new update is simply a gift from Tyron to us. Therefore when I hear people talking about feeling scammed and contemplating a refund, I think, "Really???" It seems to me that Tyron has invested enough time and enthusiasm into this game for a proposal like this to deviate him from his original vision, and that the fact that a new game mode will be developped by a SEPARATE team will likely not be a problem, but rather, a very good opportunity to further improve this universe. For my part, they have my support and trust. Sorry for any mistakes in my English.
