Put it this way; you can back the game now or just wait till it comes out. It just depends on whether you want to be involved and experience the pieces being made now or just playing it later :)
It sure has the vibe of being an epic game. I'm holding out until it is officially released to see what the final product turns out to be, where it is available and how much it costs and other factors myself but it is a total droolfest if you ask me. Mind you, I never buy games before they're released so I'm no different in this regard for this game either. :)
Besides myself I know a few others who might go crazy for this one also. Just a waiting game now... :)
