    How the initial product was described contradicts the method of promotion employed since - I've made this clear 4 times now. So there is no point bringing it up again.

    Yoshida could tell you he doesn't drink, then drinks with his colleagues after work. Judging by your responses, you'd be the person who'd say "He doesn't drink because he said so".

    Yoshi-P has stated that, as a director, it's important for him to experiment new ideas, even if some of them might not work as well as expected
    Well it turned out not to be such a new idea did it? Though I've never actually said anything negative about experimenting with new ideas. So this point is unnecessary.

    Yoshi-P has stated that he was suprised by how much people actually tried Eureka
    Is that suppose to be a twist? After all the big noise they've made before/during the expansion, people were actually curious enough to give Eureka a try afterall! Surprise of the century. We've also already discussed the playerbase wanting open world activity, so this is just a redundant point.

    Another niche content, namely PVP, constantly receives new updates, including new maps, new rules, its own ranking system, its own gameplay, its own actions and its own adjustements.
    It received similar criticisms for its baity promotions to get people playing, people who normally wouldn't care otherwise. The rest of that is a different subject matter, far from the focus of this narrative, but yet another tangent from you.

    Yoshi-P stated that is was important for him to redirect ressources to these new types of content
    And? When did I ever say the staff should not be allowed to allocate resources onto side content?

    None of these points actually refute what I've said and is mostly just you going on a tangent as usual.

    So, you missed the point yet again, for the 3rd time now? The fact is they used bait tactics to get people playing something they would normally dislike. Example, if I go around sweet-talking people nonstop to eat dead rats for a million dollars, increasing the sum until they cave in to my wishes, it's not a whole lot different from forcing them is it? It's called psychological manipulation. There is your relevance.

    "Don't like it ? Don't do it" - Isn't that EA's attitude regarding BFV? Because that turned out so brilliantly for them. /S

    So what you're really saying is; it's acceptable to continue the standard/practice to have new players endure worst aspects of the current content before they could access the more refined version of it?

    What I said was out of purely satirical intent as a response to your inability to stay on track for the __ time. I did not expect you to actually take the bait.

    You've gone back to square one again for a matter that I've addressed countless times already. You accuse me of making baseless assumptions, yet you've made your fair share. My narrative was not solely based on "They put x amount of resources into y content, so it must be for a wide audience!!!".

    But if that was the only thing you've picked up from our interactions, then I suggest you work on your reading comprehension before you reply to someone, as it is rather silly when the person I'm conversing with compulsively goes on tangents, uses deflections, misconstrues/misses one point after another/nitpicks in an attempt to spin things out of context and resorts to passive-aggressive ad homs, all of which tends to happen conveniently in place of where an actual rebuttal is expected to be.

    With that said, it is likely you are doing it on purpose under a rhetoric that revolves around persistently bringing up as many unrelated/redundant points to the table as possible in an attempt to shift the subject matter/shoot in the dark then retreat and resort to childish tricks/rinse and repeat when it backfires. Any tangents or other cheap gimmicks from this point on won't be taken seriously, as I'll only accept direct refutations.

    PS. 5th time I've had to regurgitate this now: Actions have contradicted statements. Everything else about this you will find in every other post I've made herein. I will no longer simplify/reword them anymore since it'd go over your head, intentionally or not.
