Instead of cutting Ultimate from 5.5 why not cut bozja?

However my reaction, and most other grown ups, is to bear with it and help each other where we can.

Starting off with an implied ad hominem is not the best way to begin a conversation, so let's charitably assume you meant that generally.

What I'm getting at is that the current situation owes itself just as much to covid as it does to decisions taken with respect to the content pipeline well before this pandemic happened. The former is obviously unfortunate and I agree there's not much to do but shrug there, but the latter has lessons we can learn from.

What I would like SE to remember is that combat will always be the meat to the potatoes that is this game's story, both are nice but really they complement each other. Cultivating a robust baseline lets you hedge against unexpected events, because what has happened is they've pared things down to the bare essentials and covid came along and kicked out the last pillar that was holding things up. So speaking for my demographic, I hope this is taken to heart going forward.
