There would be nothing wrong with that coming from, say you, but there is something hugely wrong with it coming from the chief product developer for a product which is designed to cater to that exact audience's needs! It is in fact, complete naughty word. But I said all this in about 2011 when Mike first opened his mouth on the subject, he should never have been put in charge of a product which he didn't believe in. THAT was the mistake, you NEVER EVER do that in business!
Yeah, this was a genuine issue back in the days of old school play particularly. I mean, we just called such players 'dicks' and doubled, tripled, and quadrupled down on the force of 'rule 0'. It wasn't a successful strategy, though obviously if you kicked enough people out of your game, you eventually ended up with a residual group of those who would obey your rulings! That was a common sight back in the day, similar to what certain posters here today evince, though I won't name them for fear of summoning their presence, lol.
It might have been a bad business decision, but I would rather our designers be honest about their own preferences than insist they lie to cover the company line (and treasury).
Yeah, I doubt it would, because TODAY anyone participating in a specifically 'FKR' game is not likely to be unaware of how to play successfully, they have been doing this long enough to have developed extremely specific tastes.
Ummmmm, no. If you read the quote it makes my point! lol.
Like I told Ben in his talk. He’s going to catch a lot of heat from folks who are invested. He seems prepared. Willing almost. He’s determined to get the facts out.
