Its simple. They didn't have a grasp on what gm mode would be used for. It's really designed to play a campaign thst is a few sessions at most and move on to a new one. It isn't really designed for long running campaigns or porting characters around. I was prepared to run a ling term campaign but I basically just quit the game after losing work and wasting time over and ober again.

If they had better community discussions (you know, the people who funded them) things probably would have gone much better. The we won't talk about what features we plan to implement and waiting weeks for much needed fixes so they could be rolled into the planned patch really pushed a huge amount of people away.
