How should they respond I wonder ?

Let´s look at the armor issue as an example: There are as many ideas how to change it as people on this forum. Even if they acknowledge it, what are they supposed to tell us ?

If they go in one direction with it, other might get dissapointed that their take on the issue wasn´t considered. And what about those who are happy with the system ? It´s a loose loose situation.

There are allready some mods out which change several things like vitality scaling, penetrating debuffs etc. Give those mods a try, they might change your experience for the better.

And you can always try to alter stats to your own liking yourself. Changing basic stuff like the scaling of combatskills or which status effects ignors armor and which doesn´t isn´t hard to change once you get the hang of how things work in the editor.

At this point I rather see Larian putting effort in fixing broken quest chains (like Tarquin not appearing).
