I agree with Ragnarok on principle. The point of documentation for this kind of product is to let consumers know what they’re getting. It’s all well and good to keep these documents up to date, but doing so without telling anyone defeats the purpose of maintaining an informed customer base.
However, in practice, it feels like Larian treat “good” and “bad” news very differently. In this case, Larian removed a reviled feature from DOS2. My guess is they felt that would be a pleasant surprise on release and had no obligation to tell anyone. When Larian increased the minimum required specs, they made a big deal of it because they knew it would screw over a chunk of their players.
I’m ok with that. I want to be told the bad news upfront. If Larian want to obfuscate the good news… that’s a marketting strategy, I guess.
