I feel like this is a pretty fun game, despite the cut ideas and the like. Hope that you guys won't forget this game while doing the next big project. In the end, the community are all Hearthlings in a way.

"What is the game going to cost at 1.0?

Since the game is a bit smaller than we originally intended it to be, we are going to set its permanent price to $19.99 around the time of the 1.0 at the end of July. We also feel this reflects the fact that if you backed during the Early Access period, you backed not just for the game, but also for a chance to see and influence the game in its development. Many thanks to all of you who have done so; it’s been a pleasure to be with you on this journey. "
In other words, Steam EA users who purchased this in July before this announcement (like myself) get screwed.
"You have more than 2 hours? Refund denied! We don't care what you say!" - Steam Support

Meanwhile, KickStarters get to talk it out with the devlopers and could get a partial refund (or full one if you solely invested in the Linux port promise). Un-♥♥♥♥♥♥♥-believable.

A similar thing happened to us, but with Activision, at my old company - if you haven't got the 'core focus' of "the Man", then what's been planned ahead isn't happening.

Sad to hear of another casualty.

Good luck to you bunch.

And yet another unfinished game is leaving EA. Guess this will be another dev team to ignore in the future...

I really liked the idea of Stonehearth. Too bad it's full potential will never be unlocked.

Just confirms again that one should never pre-order or buy in Early Access. Thanks for the lesson.

No Linux version. Well, bye then, I guess. Good luck!

If by "done" you mean "absolutely riddled with bugs", sure.

I don't care about any of the stretch goals that got cut.

I do care about the game being playable from beginning, middle, through end -- WHICH IT IS NOT.

Hey, before you go, just make desapear the millions objects generated by the game for single numarted instancied objects (like no more blue zones, only chests, no more millions of oak or stones, just 1 with a number).
Thx.

oh ... ok ... THIS is a done game for you? ... hope you'll never work on a game again ... because this game is everything but NOT done, or even working correctly ...

YOU are done for me !

I do hope this follows each of you individually throughout your game development careers. You should be ashamed.

While I enjoyed the game in it's own right this is straight up this is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥ MOVE! To Difficult!? I've seen better excuses from Bethesda Developers! No better then the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that made that Mighty No.9 game.

What's the point of Multiplayer if you can't have PvP. In the Spirit? Reality Check every multiplayer game Has PvP in someway! I may not be a game developer in anyway but I know lazy asses when I see one!

Your nothing but a Joke now. In world were game companys don't care about us anymore i'm not even surprised anymore, I really hope your proud of yourselfs because you just pissed off everyone who "supported" this game. Pieces of ♥♥♥♥... >:(

this feels Like Yogsquest all over again, but this time we had something. we had a game, we had a dedicated fan base, we had people willing to support the game, this is the fault of you the devs wimping out on a game you started. I loved this game, I bought it back in alpha 6. I was promised a good game, I love this style of game and Stonehearth was perfect. shame to see you guys murder it like some wild beast because yall got bored.

Thx for killing the game, i loved it, but i cant enjoy unfinished and uplayable product. SHAME on you.

It's a shame this ended this way with so many features I was looking forwards to just dropped and the game unpolished. Guess it's just another reminder that even with the best of intentions from the developers it's best not to kickstart stuff.

I'm dissapointed.
I was scared with this "Riot" thing and now has proven right my fear.
I don't have troubles if many devs want's to move on or work on something else but leaving the project as it is.. that's RIOT, who doesn't care about games but money ( League of Legends is a ♥♥♥♥ game that produce alot of money ).
So go on and keep making ♥♥♥♥♥♥ games that generate lot of money.

What a bunch of sell outs you guys asked for cash through kick starter and more revenue from steam, and now you sell this game to RIOT and abandon development shame on you guys.... way to take the easy way out throw us under the bus. WE should have the option to return games like these especially when developers back out like this POS MOVE
