Exactly, I wouldn't expect you to comment on things like that. Many of us have had different jobs, with both good and bad experiences, and it wouldn't ever make sense for employer and employee to rant about their differences in front of the customers.

What utter nonsense. All companies have some disgruntled ex-employees - sometimes those employees were wronged, but sometimes they were helped out because they weren't good enough or because they didn't fit into the team, or whatever. I'm not going to try and work out which is the case here, but either way, any disgruntled ex-employee (whether they were at fault or not) is going to have negative things to say about his ex-employer. I can't even be bothered trying to read all of that post, it's not relevant. And I don't expect the developers to spend all day trying to explain to us the inner workings of their team, or what arguements they've had together, and whose fault it is that the epilepsy debacle occured. What I expect is for them to listen to the constructive feedback and work on fixes, and they seem to be doing exactly that. If you think it's so easy making a sim of this quality (even if you think that's potential quality) then where are all the other examples? There aren't any are there.

And frankness, Luthier, would win you much credit. The community, on the whole, would like to think of itself as your partner in this

While many of us may feel may feel like more than a customer, many posters here are far less. All they want to do is whine about why the grass isn't as good as in Crysis, and blah blah blah, and some haven't even bought the game. So I wouldn't expect Luthier to treat everyone on this forum as a partner.
