Glad to see them still supporting this game

Sounds like using AIDS to cure cancer lol.
Such a beautiful game.
Im impressed with the extensive support this game is receiving, seriously, anyone really still plays it?
I thought it was an epic failure, but seems i’m wrong.
It was a blast to play when it came out, and the sales at launch suggested the same. The problem is, after you cleared all the provinces, it was no fun anymore. There was nothing else to do in that giant world.Most games I can replay many times and enjoy, but I tried doing so on this one the other day, and after about three hours, I just wasn’t enjoying myself.
The world is beautiful; vast
The shooting mechanics are a blast
Too bad there is nothing to actually do in the game with either of these things
