    No she doesn't just "seem to think so", she states it as a fact. And it's factually false.

    You can think that the sky is green with yellow polka dots, but if you write it, you're writing a falsehood.

    the FATE system is just like GW2's, not Warhammer's.
    No. It's not like GW2's. As a matter of fact it's pretty hilarious, because first she says they copied the design, and then she complains that it doesn't work exactly the same (as it doesn't rewards her when she soloed it with an overleveled character).

    The system is more similar to Warhammer's than to GW2's, and the developer himself went out of his way to tell that it's inspired from Warhammer Online. It's an iron clad case.

    when I'm talking about reality, I'm saying... you don't really have to be respectful towards a product, as a customer. in my opinion, anyway. games are pretty fair game for being mocked and ridiculed. Even a final fantasy game!
    A "product" is made by people. She isn't mocking, ridiculing and misrepresenting just the product, but the people that work hard behind it.

    If you state that a product is "half assed", you're stating that the people behind it are lazy, which is disrespectful, and in this case couldn't be farther from the truth.

    Professional integrity involves the ability to criticize and offer negative criticism without being disrespectful. It's a very important part of the journalistic profession, and even more so for critics. If one can't say that something isn't good without going out of his way to be nasty and disrespectful about it, he should look at different career opportunities.
