A big part of it, is that the issues brought up on the forums are still present in the game. If the issues are addressed people will stop talking about it. if combat is improved, I'm sure people will start talking about something else...But while party movement, inventory management, and combat stay the same we will see the same discussions.
Isn't that just the definition of "Mob Mentality"? So basically, that means that their should be the shouting to the four corners, over a subject that has already been argued over and over? I am not sure if that is always a good thing. But I totally agree there are issues with party movement, inventory and combat, I am just not sure some of the "answers" by some would be something I or others may not enjoy. That is why I generally think (well hope) that the developer has the information they need already, they keep to their roadmap, and find a middle ground that will appeal to both sides of the discussion. From their latest patch I have seen some changes that were discussed. I have never been a fan of development by consensus though. As far as I am concerned, if a studio does not already have a vision of what will make a great game, throwing in a bunch of suggestions by everybody just muddies the pot and can cause all sorts of issues, bugs, or a bland experience.
