this game does look very interesting but I would be a lot more interested if there wasn't guns

there wouldn't be much of a game left if they took out the guns
well they could be replaced you know
melee action games with this kind of setting are a dime a dozen.
making this a shooter actually makes it unique.
it's been done before
I realise in modern gaming most people don't care about this anymore, but seeing a development roadmap for a game you can actually buy in a store is just a failure.
Remember betas and demos, now we pay for the privilege of these, you buy early access to play an unfinished product, you buy a deluxe edition for 72 hour pre-release.
Just a terrible trend I really hate to see and it doesn't seem to happen anywhere else, I wouldn't pay for a whole film and get the first quarter while the rest is edited and released, I wouldn't pay for an album of 10 songs but they're still writing 8.
Baffling.
Witchfire is clearly labeled as Early Access, don't see the problem in this case. If you want a finished game don't buy Witchfire yet. If you want to moan about modern gaming in general maybe use another post?
are you really complaining about indie developers releasing a game into early access?
yep he does.
It literally happens all the time in other media. People crowdfund projects (books, movies, games, manufactured products) all the time with an expectation that the final product will be different than the concept they funded. It's completely transparent for these types of products, and early access that is clearly labeled poses no harm to anyone other than people who don't pay attention to the label.
