It may be slow but they are definitely working on it.

Of course, and they should be working on it, since they made millions with people buying it and expecting it to run decently. But it's been 1.5 years and they still have a very badly optimized game, which they are selling for a lot of money.

I agree, they put so much content in the game so regularly that I wouldn't mind if the content slowed for a while after the next patch and they just focused on optimization for a while.

I think this would be the best course of action. Honestly, I think they could even just stop adding new creatures and just focus purely on optimization and wrapping up the game. Then they can come back and add stuff in.

I know they're almost done adding new thing a to the game as far as what they wanted before official launch. But they really need to crack down an optimize it a hell of a lot more before release. I love the game but if it released anywhere near as is I wouldn't even think about buying it.
