My thoughts exactly.

I enjoy the games, but they are simply games. The people writing the software are people just like the rest of us. They have families, other interests, and lives of their own outside of writing the code for the software. It's great there is so much enthusiasm — which is an excellent sign of a game's popularity — but part of the fun of waiting IS the anticipation of waiting (okay, it is for me! ). It's like being a kid again just waiting for Christmas morning to finally come (if you "do" Christmas). If it all happens too fast, then you lose the fun of the build-up that the anticipation creates.

I am thankful that those who design and code the software are SO very much involved and in touch with us. That is not very common. Most of the time those who own the software are not heard from on a board; rather, only volunteer moderators do what they can to keep things in line. Here, you can actually speak to someone in charge of the actual games! Kudos to LDW for being so gracious to give us such a wonderful opportunity!

I'm very much looking forward to VV3, but while I wait, I continue to enjoy VV2 by finding new ways to explore the game. There are always more to explore than what meets the eye.

As far as bugs are concerned, envision what it would be like for VV3 to finally be released, you get all excited and begin playing, get halfway through, and the whole thing crashes due to an unforeseen _bug_. Now that would not be fun at all! Talk about people getting mad! So it is in everyone's best interest that LDW takes all the time it needs — even if it's very hard to wait — so they can release a game that meets all of our high expectations. If that means taking longer to release VV3, then so be it.

Hey, I'm just happy that there will be a VV3 at all!

BTW, An81angel, you expressed yourself very well. I understood you completely. Keep enjoying the fun (and frustration!) of waiting, anticipating, and speculating. It's all good.
