Despite what some will say, I believe Medierra and the rest of Iron Lore really want to support the game. The issue is that if no one is paying them, they must do it in their spare time. It is easy to sign on here and bash them for the faults with the expansion, but everything must be taken into perspective. They need to put food on their tables and pay their bills, so we can't expect them to work full time on a patch for free. It is THQ's responsibility to tell Iron Lore: "We're going to keep paying you guys and want you to work on an IT patch."

For those who want to moan about how Iron Lore is terrible, you have to realize that for the most part the game works fine. There are some slight lag issues, especially in Hades chamber, but nothing game breaking. The rubberbanding is annoying, but not constant enough to make me uninstall the game. The game sold for what, $30? It is worth that patch or no patch. I've spent $30 in much worse ways before, and on much worse games. $30 doesn't create a lot of profit when you consider all the people that worked on the game. Look at Two Worlds and Gothic 3, there's two games with MUCH worse issues and no support.
