You’ve probably noticed that there are some studios and companies wherein the players seem to have a downright acerbic relationship with the people making the game they’re playing. Usually this isn’t just down to players being malcontents, but to a certain amount of message mismanagement on the part of the company in question. Either the people communicating decisions are frequently silent or they’re often just flat-out wrong, or players feel that the communication is toxic and filled with lies… the potential rationale goes on and on.
