On the Significance of Skill Trees in Gaming

This is apparently the person who came up with the idea. I’m not sure there’s a way of putting this diplomatically… him expressing that he “geeks out on” obvious synergies with his character’s build is just embarrassing. I sat through most of the developer update. The very senior people from previous streams at least leave an impression, all these other people, who themselves are fairly senior (but noticeably young), very much including their class guy… I don’t know what to write. Let’s put it this way. I was very tempted to just leave my post count at 666 and move on. These people just don’t have the minds for doing anything remotely special. It’s disappointing. It’s not even meant as an insult at this point. I’m literally shaking my head.

God bless them though, they are making money.
