[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 9620799, member: 23751"] He said that as an opinion, not a statement of fact. His statement, which is all three of the paragraphs from that day, started with, "Because I'm at Gary Con and feeling salty - [B][U]I think[/U][/B] the idea..." He can have that opinion. We are all entitled to opinions, even prominent figures in the industry. You can choose to ignore that he was simply stating his opinion, or you can choose to think he was engaging in One True Wayism. That's up to you, but he has no responsibility to make sure the message was received correctly, because he already did when he put in the "I think" to clearly indicate that it was just a personal opinion. Also, he isn't speaking about playstyles at all, but rather about the design of the game itself. The game doesn't dictate playstyle, as that's up to the individual groups who play the game. [/QUOTE]
