It's weird how aggressive everyone in here is being. As if attacked. Like the assumptions of knowing how things are and having the answer to everything is par the course, but the aggro is really strange. I hope ya'll get some hugs this holiday.

    Well you’re not wrong but I think you also are ignoring why people are frustrated with an industry that is largely profit focused and marketing forward leaving consumers with underwhelming experiences sold as premium product.

    My dude the game developers are even more frustrated by this. You think we take pride in releasing unpolished products too early then letting them die a slow death by not supporting them because our corporate overlords only care about their bottom line and next quarter's results ?

    I feel that but there are also so many great games. It's an old tired horse to bring out, so forgive me, but the indie world is very cool right now.

    I was more commenting on why people are so aggro to this comment by the Owl peeps though. I could see why they feel they can't accomplish as much, Larian has probably done well for themselves with good game, before better game, prior to glorious game. No doubt though that Larian also took a swing they couldn't afford to miss and that is to be commended, if mostly so I can go without seeing more gaming-related layoffs in my feed.
