I like they put some attention onto “breaking conventions” with monsters but there are 2 problems at announcing it AT THIS particular stage/time
- Simply can’t (or at least shouldn’t) pretend nothing bad happened already, both with the reveal/feedback as well as the recent events with the company itself
- They are STILL using the PR bull style of describing stuff. AS IF they’re intended for those that are on the inside of the company to read… I’d much rather have an “overview of what is attempted” to change/update things rather than things like:
- parallel platform development
- new race/family of monsters
And they even did a “reveal video” which got like 1/4 ratio of likes/dislikes and rightfully so… That reveal vid was mostly a “wax model” with rotating camera lol
Don’t get me wrong = IF ANYTHING, again, I’m HAPPY they’re revisiting/changing the Monsters (hopefully along with a monster-behavior algorythm, at least one of the issues I talked about as very important), but can’t help but feel it’s the “same old PR methodology” that in the first place made things worse
