It's amazing how little I trust announcements like this now. I have been burned so many times by empty promises from game developers that I can't feel hyped anymore.

What I find interesting is that every generation of gamers has a different original hype disappointment moment. For some, it was E.T. next, maybe Daikatana. For me it was Spore.

Spore was a big let-down, but I think that Starbound was the last straw for me. I never bought an early-access game since then.
