Oh, there's a hampa

I'm very curious to see how TNext will work

TBN coins have already be sent out and valued, I don't think they'll change in the value until the release of TBN.
The amount of TBN coins you got is fixed.

^User opinion, not staff member information

My wild guess is Q1/Q2 2019. It's still pre-alpha.

Staff are not the game devs. They are mostly volunteer forum managers.
The game is developed by a couple of couples of people as i know.

it's really not.

it did say Toribash Next "Coming 2018" when they announced it.

So i'm assuming they're scheduled to release some sort of playable something, by the start 2019.

So my guess is winter something will be playable if they stick to their "Coming 2018" announcement. Whether some sort of Alpha or Beta version.

This. Give the people what they want!

I think Despite how long this game has been in production
because it's still in an early stage.

Toribash Next was announced t o o - e a r l y.

Good advertisement/marketing is how well/effectively one can suspend excitement/interest
from their audience/consumers.

(Something this game in general struggles with but that's a discussion for another day)

The significance and excitement of the announcement lessens if you do not keep it up.

And it's not like this is a super "popular" thing like the release of a Hollywood blockbuster
or popular young adult novel of some sort. Where you can make
people wait a long time without harming anything. So it's already on thin ice with the
literal DEATH/LIFE of this game banking on Toribash Next.

Excitement will then either turn into growing disinterest or frustration.

Which will in return harm the popularity of the final products release.
As people who were closely following initially, will have d i s s i p a t e d long before.

Information, General Content, Video Content, Updates from Developers Themselves. Etc. Is what this needs.
The leaking of Gifs sort of helped, they provided visual information on how the engine looks. And a little bit
of how things move in it. It got people talking again.

But something more high quality, official, and much more informative would do wonders.
I know it's probably not "that far" in development to ask for polished, amazing put together visuals.
I get that, and I'm sure the Dev team is working hard and trying their best. c:
But even high quality screenshots posted here or clips to the few known
Toribash channels of S O M E T H I N G - N E W would help.

It's long past the "excited speculation" point. You need to continue to wet the appetite.

If you weren't ready to supply your consumer/audience with such information,'
then announcing this early might have been a poor decision.

Just a thought, I could be wrong and they could have a very
smart and well thought out strategy in the long run.
Toribash is just my favorite game and I wish to see
it do the best it can. I still wish best of luck
to the game's development how ever they decide to do it.

im waiting for a release date
