I respect that, and they did an amazing job. I am just noting that there are issues that I think are systemic. Some people have noted the removal of complexity as a design intent. I just wonder how simple they intend the design to be and if they consider the current situation to be a success. If so, I don't know what kind of long term character development opportunities there will be in the game.
