I just can’t honestly believe this ****. You know, the one thing I said last night while ****ing about this in IRC is “Man, it must really suck to have been an apprentice and realize your contributions are less valuable than a bumon to clear your combat toolbar.”

This does suck.

Overall, I’ll leave my opinion, with its criticisms and pats on the back, out of this. I do not own this game, and I am not enough of a saint to take time and effort away from myself in order to try to make more money for someone else.

One thing I do want to say, however, is that I am a bit confused. During the Apprentice project, we were regularly consulted for our opinions of additions, new ideas, changes, and other modifications to the game. As a result, I don’t think many people can criticize the end product, Episode 3, as being a dismal failure or insult for its price.

Before the sale of Episode 3, the mbum user-base was actually asked to vote, sight unseen, to help determine how much they’d like to pay for Episode 3. Why was this not done with Forumwarz Orange? I do not understand. This all would have been avoided, and the mbumive taint-flavored bitterness on the all the tongues of Forumwarz’s most avid users would be removed.

From an economic standpoint, we once again could have learned the most productive sales price-point and been given a range at which to consider ways to price discriminate. That opportunity is lost, and now we have this. It’s not typical trolling, whining or ****ing. This is legitimate anger and insult. It risks the good-will of the relatively few hardcore users that bring in the majority of this game’s revenue and support.

I just don’t understand.
