What I don't understand, is that if the Devs/Producers really thought the game was as bad as we did to play, why not level with the base and seek improvements instead of all the lies and shenanigans?


There must be no Business Degrees in SOE management.

Actually, there are plenty ofMBAs over there... too many of them. Not a single one of the managers of this product/project have a degree in "Keeping Customers Happy" or "Communication" or "Game Design, Development, and Theory."

This is a game being managed and designed by people with MAs inBusiness Administrationor BAs in Marketing.


This game is a perfect example of why you shouldn't listen to the Managers when developing a large, complex system.


The design decisions should never have been up to the people who know the *least* about the game and its players.
