5/23 AMA with Matt Scott

[purpleHorizons 142]

The entire AMA can be summarised with: “This question is better routed to design”
Which begs the question, why not do a Q&A with the main game designer then? Ideally not with the host from this AMA, as the person didn't have control of the conversation at all.
Matt seems to not have a single, concrete answer to any glaring issue which was mentioned to him in the AMA.
The typical "it's on our radar" "It's not our top priority" excuses.
But apparently, they have the time to work on a PS4 version of the game again...... which absolutely no one asked for. Absolute clown show.

In the game's current state, even with a PvE-based FTUE with bots (which will take up server hardware resources even further), no one in their right mind will stay or spend money on this game.
LO has been at the wheel for 8 years. 8 years. That's more than enough time to tackle all the glaring issues (MM not separating casual & comp crowd, weapons, missions cars, districts, UI mess, clothing/car/symbol designers, ARMAS redesign)
I cannot fathom the thought pattern of anyone who keeps on defending LO to the levels I've seen in Discord in the slightest.

If you let the community talk with the game designer and figure out that something can actually be done, that means work (for them) so no reason for them to get more work  

Joke aside, so they stopped the console version few years ago, to actually work on a PS4 version again? That's just magnificent idea. lol....

 

I agree with you that the LO-defender crew must look themselves into the mirror sometimes and ask if they believe their own words too? ^....^
