We're encouraged that the new testers we added a few weeks ago came in and quickly learned the game. They are giving us good input, and seem to be enjoying the game. Those testers that joined us back several months ago don't seem burned out and are still enjoying the game. As for the old guard, well, after 18-27 months of testing, and having gone through many big changes in the game, most of them still can get excited about the game. Sure, they need to take breaks every so often (how many times can you restart a game to be told after 1 to 30 hours of play that you need to restart again), but when they come back they get sucked back in again. Now that we have a few more scenarios, it's even easier for them to find something new to test. These are all good signs that make us think ultimately the game will be well received by those of you waiting for it.
