Divergence Hits Steam Greenlight Later Today!

Dear friends,

After much consideration and weighing of all possible ramifications, we've come to the conclusion to go ahead and list the game on Steam Greenlight later today.

The decision comes mostly due to major changes to indieGoGo's features and policies that we were previously unaware had taken place. The details aren't that important, but what is important is that because of these policies, our campaign two years in the making is currently burried on the equivalent of page 10 on their site, and even more unbelievable... It's burried beneath dozens of old campaigns dead and burried years ago. We're still waiting on an explanation as to why a currently live campaign would take a back seat to dozens of campaigns, many of which ended two or more years ago, but in the meantime, the complete and total lack of exposure is murdering us. This cannot continue.

Therefore, we've made the decision to push our plans to Greenlight Divergence ahead of schedule to supplement IndieGoGo's vacuous exposure with Steam's in an addempt to drive traffic to our IndieGoGo "before it's too late".

Steam Greenlight does not mean we're planning on launching the game this month, or even next month. It's simply an introductory step that everyone already knew we were going to have to take to get the game on Steam eventually; We're just choosing to do it now and use that exposure to help benefit the game and finance our combat module before we even think about an official launch.

Therefore what we're asking is for everyone who's supported this project from the beginning and feels as we do that it could end up changing the face of MMORPGs, to help us greenlight the game on Steam and if they have time, say a few kind words to offset the all-but-guaranteed tsunami of trolls that any newly listed game on Steam is certain to attract.

We're never going to stop, but we can't do it alone. You've given us your money, you've given us your patience, and we hope we've at least shown that with us, you always know exactly what we're doing with the trust and resources you've given us, so we hope later today you'll help us turn a current state of struggle into a success.

Thanks for reading and keep an eye out for the steam announcement!
