Bad trailer

First thing one has to ask themselves is this: What does JW mean by 10 hours? Seeing as in the world of Arcania 50+ hours really means 20ish hours, just what is 10 hours to JW? 3???

What I really think is they sold a half game in Arcania, and tried to sell as many of that half game, at full price, that they could. And now they are going to try and sell the rest of the game off piece meal in order to suck as much money out of this game as they can.

So maybe they were telling the truth about open world and 50+ hours of game play. They just didn't say it would happen a little at a time. Say once every quarter. You should all receive your full version of Arcania by the end of 2011/beginning of 2012....at about 3x the cost.

Suckers.

JoWooD has to indefinitely delay the ArcaniA: Fall of Setarrif add-on. The legal background of the official add-on to “ArcaniA: Gothic 4” is unclear and diverse legal positions with the BVT fund that financed the main game are present.
“It’s uncertain whether the game can be released onto the market in its current form”, explains Stefan Berger, Business Development Manager JoWooD, “of course this must be investigated and settled before the release - unfortunately”. Due to this fact JoWooD officially announces, that the release of the Add-On has been set on hold and will be delayed indefinitely for now.
