[QUOTE="Cadfan, post: 4087030, member: 40961"] It makes sense to judge the experience you had, not the experience you might have had if the Delve were otherwise. But give me a break. Concluding from a combat focused Delve that the entire edition is only about combat isn't judging the experience you had. Its concluding that an absence of a feature at an event where that particular feature was disclosed to be in absence is somehow proof that the feature doesn't exist. Its like complaining that Little League isn't baseball because your kid's Little League group's first meeting was at some batting cages instead of a full baseball diamond. If you came home from that and announced that Little League wasn't about running bases anymore, your wife would give you [I]such a look.[/I] Gourmet Chef: "I am preparing for you a four course dinner. In advance, you may sample the fish." ENWorlder Food Critic: "Gimme!" *munchmunchmunch* Gourmet Chef: "Your thoughts on my humble offerings, sir?" ENWorlder Food Critic: "What sort of idiot are you to create a four course meal entirely composed of fish? This really needs a wine, and some side dishes, and all you prepare is fish? I much preferred my meal of last Thursday, in which you prepared four courses, all different, only one of which was fish!" Gourmet Chef: "But sir! That was only a sample. There are three courses to come, I assure you!" ENWorlder Food Critic: "You can't expect me to judge the quality of your meal based on hypothetical dishes I've never even seen! From this sample, I know only the following information: that it is composed solely of fish. This is unsatisfying. I go now, to write on the INTERNET! Away!" [/QUOTE]
