    People, please, take a deep breath and remember:

    For animals, the entire universe has been neatly divided into things to
    (a) mate with, (b) eat, (c) run away from, and (d) rocks.

    Another way to look at it: Its been eight ing years, why are they torturing us with extra days unnecessarily?

    We've managed to avoid that trap for, what, 8 years now? I think we can manage a few days more.

    Don't get me wrong I'm not criticizing, I'm simply saying that none of this behavior should be surprising to anyone. People act in very predictable ways when their expectations are not managed carefully. The moment you guys said August you ripped the lid of of it

    And is it not still "August"? Which is the only FORMAL release date announced by the Team as a whole. If it's not released until September, any and all can criticize to their hearts content.

    If you think a properly working mod and installer are unnecessary for the release and installation of a mod, then I can only hope most others don't share that opinion, especially the developers and releasers of the mod. Luckily, I get the feeling you're alone in this.

    Hmmm...maybe if we bother Kull enough with constantly complaining about the delay he may just go "Ah screw it" and release it as it is? Maybe?

    I noticed and the more explanations you give it's still for nothing, they'll find something to rant about...

    So we can penalize those who are patient and allow the complainers to rant about an installer that doesn't work? No thanks. We're doing the right thing because we know that 95% of you deserve a good product.

    That's always the way of it, isn't it? Explain to them what they've been complaining about and they'll find a new issue. Or completely ignore you and keep on complaining.

    Devs take your time do it right no BS halfassed fixes. Take 3 months, what a for this to be released and could not install because of steam or CAs little patch of recent days.
