Anyone in the Alpha for Pathfinder Online? Was wondering what people have thought so far and if anyone was actively trying it out to play with.

I just got Alpha access from Tork Shaw. However the more I read up on what they are doing the more I realize this game is a joke.

Quote:
The 20,000 or so folks who will be admitted into early enrollment play (a number that includes the 7,000 Kickstarter backers) are expected to pay $15 a month as the team continues to develop the title. In exchange, characters and progress will not be wiped, and players will get to see the game take shape around them.

Goblinworks' philosophy is to have a robust game design first and then wrap the rest of the game around it afterward. Dancy said that the monetization is necessary to keep the lights on and the development rolling. The budget for a finished Pathfinder Online is $5 million (89% of which is salaries), but only $1.4 million has been raised so far.

I followed pathfinder for a bit but it has seemed to fizzle out
