Not really cheating himself if he's my case. cuz I'm going to do that too. I've got EU3, Civ4 and Fallout3 and these can esily occupy all my free time. So why not wait till major issues are fixed?
We don't view a crash when exiting as a major issue, and if you gonna wait for that one to be fixed before you play it, then you're in for a long wait.
Crashes while playing is of course a major issue we'd focus on, but getting a popup message box when you quit the game ranks about as major as if Rome should have 12.9 slaves or 12.85 slaves in 585 AVC.
