I don't think they are heavy into building the world yet. Just test zones to work on characters and balance and implement their ideas.
The synopsis of the game is simply a "blue print" of how they are trying to build a game.
People seem to think because "a web site" has a lot of information, it's about ready to play !
I stand by Visionary Realms 100% in not promising anything yet.
People that want in now = NO !.... Stop assuming anything.
Let them build their game
A few heavy backers that were level headed with common sense, rational and loyal were allowed into testing and streaming of the few test zones, and were allowed to have some fun, promote and give some feed back .... No wrong doing, everything is up front.

Really a game needs a lot of thought before starting he development so that they are not just winging around ideas,wasting time and money like Robert's over there at his studios,just winging it.
The long history behind Brad pretty much tells me o expect same old with maybe a couple new ideas or twists.I look at the entire industry ALL of the genres and they are all over crowded,all of them.
We have so many games filling each void we really have no need for anymore for another 30 years or more unless a developer can bring something new and creative to the table.
30 years ago i figured a MUCH faster moving industry ,every 5-10 years huge improvements.Well the only thing i have witnessed over 30 years is better graphics but in many cases LESS gaming or poorly implemented game ideas.
My guess,don't go expecting much here,imo will be another mmorpg and not much more,just a new skin.I have a lot of ideas and i mean a lot having played so many different genres and seen so many half assed ideas it is really sad to see thousands of games with hardly but a handful of ideas from all of them.We are in the era of automatic assembly line game design,a real dull era.

Please
Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.
In my view you stated that:
- only "heavy backers" = people with a personal and financial interest in promoting the games success
- "level headed with common sense" = didn't complain about the game at all / ever
I think that where allowed to have fun and promote the game is accurate. I think the suggestion that it is all upfront is a little off but it depends on how you meant it.

Yes it is a beef flavored pot noodle (ramen). "Pot Roast" isn't really something talked about outside of the U.S.
That's an old joke I can't seem to forget
You wanted to be the "go to guy".

I don't like them, its like only eating disregarded crust from a pizza. I always leave the crust, the sauce and cheese should be all the way to the edge. Thats what eating pot pies are like.
