But if they want to keep excitement in a product they have to at least remember it exists enough to mention it, and tease it, once in a while.
Zero communication…besides the communication that I listed in the post you’re replying to? It’s literally right there. Digressing, you’re still talking about what they should be doing if they want people to be excited, as if I didn’t just explain to you that they have no reason whatsoever to care if you’re excited right now.

They want you to be excited when you can buy the game. You can’t buy the game right now, because it’s not ready. (How do I know that? That’s right, because they’ve communicated that.) Telling us what’s in the game a month before we can buy it isn’t going to generate a single sale, and runs the risk of producing lowering sales because the excitement could dissipate by release day. It’s nice for the loyal, die hard fans that are going to buy on day 1 no matter what to know what they can look forward to, but the casual fans need to be targeted when the game is available, not year round or weeks/months ahead of time.
