But TDK, you are failing to consider the possibility that Ubisoft
may well be trying to hide something. You keep saying that a review [sic] would reduce frustration and anger. Sure, if SH5 was indeed all bunny rabbits and teddy bears like you are obviously assuming.
But let's just
pretend for one second (I know you like doing this) that the dynamic shadows
were broken, the dynamic campaign
was merely a supercharged scripting engine or the enemy AI was the equivalent of a frog on steroids. Do you think they'd want us to know that
now? And do you think knowing that would make this a happy place?
Just imagine this place had they given Neal a beta copy of SH4 to preview...
Of course, on the other hand, if they do have nothing to hide, then I fail to see the harm in giving Neal a beta copy to preview - as you correctly state, that can only be a good thing.
And that's the perplexing thing.
