    Wow....

    It's like someone used butter to get their heads out their asses just in time. This is also a way for them to apologize and acknowledge they fucked up.

    Considering the nature of much of the feedback we received, however, and the current state of the game, we have decided to extend the free trial period for all users. Please continue reading for further details.
    At least they publicly recognize that the game is terrible in its current form. That's what I get out of the bold part anyways.

    This almost seems too good to be true. They've literally addressed every single issue with the game, and it's all planned to be implemented within two months? Awesome!

    Obviously great news, but I wouldn't overreact too fast This is S-E and we know theory and implementation are 2 different worlds for them.

    I wouldn't go that far, but it is progress in the making. Working progress, working progress.

    Even if they hadn't added that part, the fact that they decided to let everyone play for free for another month pretty much says it for them.

    Wow, I'm actually kind of impressed with what they are doing here. They pretty much admitted that the game is broken right now and listed all their planned fixes with a very un-SE like level of detail. The game has a shot at recovering from the weak launch if they follow through with all these changes and keep going in this direction.

    Also, yay for NMs!

    They've shown some good will here. Can't see any reason to hate them for it. Lets see if this pays off though. Two updates to go.

    EDIT: Also it is not like they were smug about their game until now. Bitter consumers have wild imaginations.

    Oh what the heck lol, did someone crack the lodestone website or is this for real

    The only part that annoys me is their schedule. No auto-sort until late November, not reduced Anima cost until late November. SE is taking their updates the MS way, "Yes this patch is important. We'll still do it according to our "patch' schedule"."

    They have only so many resources honestly. They'll fix what they deem to be the most important, and hold off on others until later.

    Pushing out the game far too prematurely is what landed them in a lukewarm launch to begin with, I'd prefer it if they stuck with a conservative schedule to be honest
