Should the devs be blamed ?

Should we now conclude that the integrity of the devs has been compromised ? If not then perhaps the devs would like to present their case here in this topic ?

As a life long developer myself (no pun intended) I sympathise greatly with the often illogical demands placed on developers by management. But I find it increasingly difficult to defend them based on their pro-SH5 postings to date.

So devs, please feel free to explain to this small floppy community why you should not have a slice of blame for this distasterous iteration of the sinking SH series ? Please help us to maintain subsims unequivical support of you and your work.

Thanks

Sorry, man, but you loaded your post with a lot of assumptions and misleading statements. First, you are wrong about The subsim members who met the devs were told of the excellent SH5 in development. No, we were not told of the excellent development, we were shown a demo. There were no proclamations of "excellent development", that is your phrase, and you weren't there.

Next, you have a lovely "When did you stop beating your wife?" bit about their integrity. Please, man, what's wrong with you? Integrity? Are these guys attorneys or accounting auditors? That's completely out of line. Now they must respond or their integrity is in question?

Look, maybe you are umaware but the dev team for SH (as many other industry dev teams) are not supposed to jump on every forum and reply to every critic. Maybe you want to post this type of question on the corporate forum.
