The first demo is coming out in February, so I think  maybe 1 or 2 years....
When our hearts both beat in time,
There\'s magic in your smile,
It seems there\'s nothing we can\'t do.

And within your warm embrace,
My heart will find a place,
Even from afar,
Our love forever shall be, destiny.

I agree with Dwinney, after the demo it will probably be at least  a couple of years until the final game.

Now then whats all this negativity about...

One thing you have to realise is that we are a group of voulenteers. Game companys with budgets that are easily within the 4million$ ranges and that have 30+ staff still take on average 4 years to complete a game. and there making the game 24/7... this might make you cringe thinking that well take 8 years or more to make PS, but i personnaly think it will be a couple of years.

Patience is the key... once the first demo is done well be working on teh next demo and so on. So rather than having to wait for the completed game to come out before you can play, you will be able to play the game as it grows and gets more and more added to it right up untill completion of the project (i think, dont qoute me)... Although the main problem with that is you might get bored with it... but to stop that well have to limit what teh demos show you for content, so there will still be alot of new stuff to experiance when it is finaly completed.

No negativity at all :D , I am really enjoying seeing and hopefully being a part of PS from this early stage and I have no disillusions about when the game is due to be complete.

I love seeing these things as they are developing. I don\'t think people will get bored (well, some may do), I think we have the beginings of a really nice community here and that is also a vital part of the PS project. There is no game, no demo and yet we are all spending time here - I think that says something ;)

besides, there is a great reason why we should stick around until the final game is out :

if we start playing from the fist minute of the first demo, and play an avarage of 25 minutes a day, when the final game is out, we will be like level 8993284028402398409238094823 . and we can kill newbies!! mwhahaha

just imagine how everyone will adore us strong people in acoupel of years ...  :]   :)   :D   :))

Our stats wont be carried over from demo to demo, but who cares? :D I\'ll just spend time getting to know other players in PS. :)) So when the game comes out I can run for election..... :P
