Do you think many reported bugs are fixed when we have Misk leading QA? This dude is too busy playing Fort Night to be concerned with a stupid cartography table bug.
Funny because the only "fixes" they seemed to have done is make more things harder to play (UW / Niera) while not fixing something like the table so that it can't be used. Perhaps if everyone quits before NL needs to be released they won't need to actually make the deadline?
You make valid points. I think it mostly comes down to Mesanna making poor decisions.
Misk isn't exactly the most qualified person for that position. There are players who could do a far better job.
It appears to me that the primary reason Misk has the role of lead QA is because he is Mesanna's life partner.
Mesanna recently had the opportunity to hire some new EM's and a Content Designer. I don't see any real positive change since that's happened.
There should have already been new content while bugs (that impact players, not Mesanna's feelings) were being fixed.
I would assume Mesanna used a similar hiring strategy for those positions as she did for choosing her husband to lead QA.
It seems to me that instead of picking up the best talent, Mesanna would rather compete with them.
