They were not going to shift course on game design based on a single sale turned pirate
If you think that giant companies don't look at social media responses to their games in order to make future decisions, I have a bridge to sell you.
If you think that companies look at social media more than their own sales metrics, then Ive probably already sold you a bridge and have a loyalty program for you to sign up for, to get 15% off your next purchase
I've been part of Community Management at a major studio, and I was told to stop 'wasting their time' with customer feedback, so which bridge is it?
Odds that you can name the studio?
I can deflect the doxxing slightly by saying it's more than one. The first rhymes with Wicrosoft and the other is too small and would definitely doxx me. However I have friends all over the industry, and can confirm identical reactions from places with names similar to Acti... mizion, Sledge..wammer Ztudios, 434... endustries, Pioware.. Grames?
