Technically its not "time off" since this isnt their jobs.
And I figured they were taking time with the family. I can just hear the "your not spending more time on that *&@#$ game are you?!?"

Summer is starting. I'm not sure about Sweden, but in Finland, the school ends next week. Teachers must be in quite a hurry...

There is indeed school ending here. Grades are supposed to be set tomorrow. I have a last couple of works to go through today.

Good to have you watching

Makes me focus

I notice a lot of new content being added to the game, even though it is in late beta. (Witness the new spells added recently.) Is this unusual for game development? It would seem a risky proposition, since you may end up introducing more bugs as well as not having enough time to thoroughly test all the new content. I thought the purpose of beta testing was only for fixing bugs and polishing the program? I don't want this to sound like I'm complaining about added content, I'm just expressing concern and caring.

Well, it's not like they're short of people willing to test it heh.

Well you know how it goes. We live the world of patches. Usually all games are released with lot of bugs, but this is normal in 2006. The first 1-3 patch[es] are solving all bug related problems for most of the games.
Ofc I dont want doms 3. 1 month before the game would reach v3.0 and play with bugs until the first patch, but all gamers -including myself- wont argue if we spot some bugs in an unpatched retail game.
