That Which He Does Not Play

[Seera1024]

What does YoshiP's playing or not of Island Sanctuary on his personal account have to do with how good or bad a patch is or what direction quality wise the game is going in?

Every aspect of the game doesn't have to appeal to YoshiP for it to be added to the account and it may just not be something that he finds too terribly interesting so he hasn't done it on his personal account.

His answer to the question isn't one that is affected by his not having played the mode either.

I'd like to believe that Yoshi could base the success of something on statistics or other objective methods. Maybe the number of subs ticked up? Maybe there are many more logins than usual.

If a chef based the success of his creation on just his own tastes, but the customers stopped coming, would it be a success?

Right. But that doesn't mean because a chef has to eat everything they make if they work at a restaurant. Nor does what a chef eats off the menu at their own restaurant have any impact on the success of the restaurant. I highly doubt any chef of any restaurant goes through and eats everything on the menu of where they work on a regular basis (over the course of several days, not all at once).

OP's trying to say that because YoshiP hasn't played Island Sanctuary on his personal account that it's somehow usable as proof that the patch wasn't successful.
