Hytale: A Developer's Concerns

Описание: I've been following Hytale since it's initial announcement, and I've noted a couple potentially serious issues with the info they've provided since the re-acquisition. With Hytale's pre-purchase window opening up in less than two days, join me for an analysis of the information they've provided while I attempt to pick apart some of the decisions they've made that give me pause.
