I see the last three consecutive new releases...those quests...these spells...that holiday...as smoke and mirror tactics meant to divert your attention and pacify you, not correct their deficiencies.
Then what the hell do you suggest them do? What is your superior alternative?

Real fixes take longer to complete. That is a fact, simple as that. Should they not do anything before said real fixes are done, or should they at least make it look like they are making steady progress? This is the difference between monthly and tri-monthly patches. Smoke and mirrors vs. everything at once.

As the end result is the same regardless, I like monthly patches. It gives us something to look forward to every month, even if the big stuff takes longer to develop.

So, I ask you once again- what the hell is this superior alternative to smoke and mirrors? You don't develop any larger fix in a month. Or even two months. We get either nothing or something small. That won't change no matter how you slice and dice it.

It was clear from the very beginning that when you are working on rehauls of the core game features, you won't see the results before enough time has passed. We are just now approaching that stage.
