What are we waiting on?

An entire artistic reimagining of the game, a huge code rewrite, 8 more levels, 6 more bosses, modding support via steam workshop, the hardest difficulty UKMD, and probably even more.

Who told you there'll be 6 more bosses?

It's not that hard to figure out.
Every 4 level layer had 2 bosses.
Every 1 level layer had 1 boss.
The prime sanctums had 2 bosses each.
I'm counting the miniboss enemy we usually get in the second or third level of a four level long layer a boss too.

The math is mathing with this one, so all Germans really are smart.

Near its 10 year anniversary since the dev just decided one day he'd basically stop meaningfully updating the game despite it still missing classes (has 4 out of 6; has had 4 out of 6 for nearly a decade) supposed to be added day 1
4 years isn't that much by how low standards for EA are
Took this guy 9 years to add seeded runs, something supposed to be in year 1

Caves of QuD also just exited EA and its also from 2015 and it took them something like 6 years to add a single dungeon

Hakita is going the actually respectable "make slow but meaningful updates" route, rather than both these games "open notepad++, copy existing code, change the "color" modifier, call this this months update even though it was less than 5 minutes work"

Wow, I feel bad for people who bought it.

Steam should enforce rules about EA games (like no more than 5 years).

I don't really see the value in arbitary max timeframe to list the game as not EA, but they should be monitered to make sure they're actually delivering promised content, not just saying "yea I don't feel like adding the rest of the game lol XD"

I almost bought DayZ, glad I didn't.

Even Ultrakill in its current state is more complete than even actually finished indie games.

Almost half a decade since it was promised on GoG and still not available there, would've gladly bought at full price back then but at this point they're being disrespectful to anyone who doesn't intend to use Steam as their primary store, especially for a singleplayer game

That's a shame.

No, I've never seen a beaming.

"Blade and Sorcery" was in early access for 5 years, it only got fully released recently. But maybe ultrakill will take 6 years (or more).

i can't tell if this is satire or a genuine question, if its a question, its a game.
