That's your (and Niara's) way of seeing it. Quite enough people enjoyed the show.
Ok? And quite a bunch didn't, as most of the comments in that thread (and in other forums where I cross-posted that recap) can clearly show.
As I recall, most people enjoyed the little video update, until all the negativity came pouring into the pot, and getting stirred around. It's easy to show people something negative and get people to believe it, especially if it gets repeated over and over again, reinterpreted and twisted to fit the agenda of "Larian doesn't care about us/DnD/5e/etc".

Exactly. Let's just wait and see. They know they are very late with an update and they want to drum up some player enthusiasm again. They keep saying they're working on some cool stuff, and I am excited to see what it is.
