sometimes I get the feeling that letter is meant to represent some of the comments Larian gets.

It’s a bizarre notion to assume, like sheep, people will just graze upon whatever grass Larian puts before them – if you’ve any sort of mind whatsoever, you’ll likely have an opinion on the grass: whether it’s positive or negative is irrelevant, as it’s all down to taste.

I just scan-read the suggestions pages, and see you do a fair amount of complaining yourself either way. I.e. what do you call the below:

Exhibit 1
Exhibit 2

Pot, kettle, black, much?

Maybe Larian are referring to your own wee complaints in the ‘letter’ – and wouldn’t that be funny now, seeing as you’re snickering at everyone else for being ‘moaners’?

No offence, but it’s probably the more trifling lamentations about the likes of Us and familiars that has them rolling their eyes, considering they’re up to their elbows in what’s sure to become – if it hasn’t already – dev hell, given the scope of their ambitions. Bigger fish to fry and all that.

The lighting change has an obviously immense impact on the global visuals, which effects every single asset they’ll create. Some people approach the change from a purely mechanical point of view, in that it’s either practically useful or not. Whereas many others, obviously, have approached it on its dubious artistic merit.

It’s simply an opinion – there’ll be many more. I wouldn’t scoff at them. You’re only shouting at a brick wall anyway, since people will always express them.

Some folks seem to think this thing is the infallible Second Coming of Christ – now that’s where the real lols are at.
