This lack of acknowledgement of the community feedback has left me bitter, frustrated and unable to withstand any more disappointment. So is my testimony, and I sincerely hope I did not offend any of you, wonderful people, with particular emphasis on the forum's moderators.
Well, my friend, I do sincerely appreciate the formality (And this isn't me being fresh or anything) but I should like to respectfully disagree. I feel that Larian has listened to the community on several issues (I.E. We need better UI, Short rests are useless, cantrips providing surfaces is broken, etc. This is just from what I know, and there may be more things lurking in the Patch 4 patch notes). I do believe that you are referring to a dislike for many of the changes Larian has made to the core decisions, and to a certain extent, there are certain things that they have simply made up their mind on. They have acknowledged that this feedback exists during Panel from Hell II in their discussion with Jeremy Crawford where they said that that certain things were, in their opinion, better for a CRPG as opposed to a TTRPG. It was, admittedly, a backhanded and catty way of saying it, but it was, essentially, their way of saying "no". If this game and discussion of it causes, as you say, bitterness and frustration, may I suggest taking a step back? I'm not trying to be rude, and I understand it might come across that way, and for that I apologize. For real, if you're feeling distressed, wallowing in anger and bitterness is probably not a good idea. As my quotation says, I hope that you have a good day and can find some peace, friend.


I honestly hope you have a most marvelous day!
