Thank you!

New player here. I had seen TLD on Xbox Game Pass for years but didn't take the plunge. It was only once it left XGP that I realised how much I'd intended on playing it! I bought TLD in the sale after it left Game Pass. I was hooked throughout May, to a point of obsession. There I was reading back on historic dev updates, watching YouTube videos, playing the game every day, signing up to the forums... i especially found the dev updates to be really transparent and informative. To feel immersed and engrossed in a video game, and it's community, is a rare and beautiful thing for me. So reading through the dev updates was a really nice way to play catch -up on how we got here. I subsequently bought TFFT expansion. I always take the mindset that if I wanna financially support a developer, then I won't hesitate to do so. You guys deserve to make money for the talent and healthy work culture you possess. And for the quality content you produce. And I'd like to see Hinterland, TLD and future projects prosper. So I paid full price for TFFT expansion and I have no concerns on how long it takes you to deliver this content. I'm just glad we can fund you, and receive content for our contributions. I'm glad there is a future for TLD. I hope you find a content model which works for your team and for this community. I'm also glad there is a Road Map. I LOVE road maps! I know they can be controversial. They create expectations and deadlines which can be difficult to meet. But I love knowing what's intended for the game I love. And I love knowing what I can get excited about in the future. I'm very glad there will be more content for TLD. I hope there will be plenty more. Keep it coming. Going forwards with content road maps - please don't shy away from them. But I recommend that you always underpromise and overdeliver. If you think it'll take 8-10 weeks to produce some content, then promise me 12-16 weeks and give yourself a nice buffer. You'll either meet your deadline or beat it. And if you can't meet the deadline, then hey - you've already got the "cap in hand" apology updates absolutely aced! And you've got a passionate and forgiving community to soften the blow of such circumstances. Keep up the amazing work. And thanks for another great update.
