My point is, Mr. Joker (nice new avatar by the way), that arguing and whining at them changes nothing. If you rush them, it's either going to take the same amount of time anyway, or it's going to get released half-fixed (more so than usual, but then again, it's a large amount of content and a lot of "putting things in the right place", something game developers are not very good at) and it will be even worse. No matter what you do, you won't get it out at the same quality earlier by rushing it.

My point about being entitled the DLC came out wrong, you aren't entitled to it before they've finished it. Admittedly, they could probably do a beta test for you all, but that probably wouldn't be as simple as that. Ultimately, you're going to have to wait anyway.

My other point about no-one caring is not a personal jab, by the way, it's just a grim look on how it works. Look at things like Jedward, Twilight and Justin Beiber, I sure as hell don't like them, and literally everyone I know hates them, yet they still show up with a bang and manage to get people jumping around, and of course it irritates me that they get the attention while other, well-deserving artists and book series (such as Robert Jordan and Muse) are just ignored. In the end, the actions of one person out of a million, hell, even a thousand out of a million, means little in the big picture. I'm sure that the irritated PS3 fanbase is very substantiial, but even so, in the end, when the next big bit of content comes out, everyone will flock around and become immediately faithful again, such is the internet.

As for our thoughts being taken into consideration: That's one thing I have to disagree on. If you can't stand by what you've done, then you don't deserve the praise for it. In the end, we are playing what THEY have made, not what we have thought of. Granted, some of our thoughts go into the picture, but in the end, they keep the course they intended, they don't veer off because players wanted more magic, they look into it, but don't turn the entire franchise on it's back just to get it working. Integrity is important when it comes to working on a series of games, however, as many saw with ME3, it's also bad to get the wrong idea of what you should be doing. Changing the course of the franchise rarely ever ends well in the long run, and anyone who attempts to play it is going to end up with some hate. In short, they should think primarily of what they want done to the franchise, unless of course it goes back on what you've already done. Be integral to the original work, not the thoughts of where you want it to go.

PS: If you can understand the last paragraph, then my hat is off to you.
