Dear friends of Wish,

We would like to inform you that Wish Beta 2.0 will start on December
1, 2004, and not, as originally planned, in fall 2004. The beta test
will last until December 31, 2004. We apologize for the delay.

The reason for the delay is that we want Beta 2.0 to be a truly
mind-blowing experience. We are therefore reworking many parts of our
game client, server, and content, based on the feedback that we
received from our E3 version and from community message boards. These
changes will take longer to finish than anticipated, but we are sure
they will be worth the wait!

We are also moving the release date of Wish from the first to the
second quarter of 2005. Too many games have suffered from a premature
release, and we do not want to be one of them.

Best regards,
Your Wish team


Edit: Totally forgot to write something. Uhm.........

Erm, I thought the season of Fall wasn't considered over until the Winter Solstice which usually doesn't happen until the end of December (around Dec 22)?  So how would a beta test starting Dec 1 '04 and ending Dec 31 '04 not take place "fall 2004?"

Well, I'll be terribly surprised if something really changes in the game, but I'd like to see it happen. It would be gratifying to see a developer actually make changes based on the "no fun" criticism.

If you can read this, you're on a board populated by misogynist assholes.

They don't have a single designer. It's all I have to say.

Has anyone who has ever promised "a truly mind-blowing experience" ever actually delivered on that promise?

I think anarchy online came through on the mind blowing experiance. It blew my fucking mind that a gold released program makes me reformat my hard drive after playing twice.
