Just shut up and give them your money! Customers have no right to apologies!What happened to the apology thread? Do you think the patch makes everything OK?
OR it was deleted after they realized it aged very badly in the span of the few hours it took for the save corruption issues to become noticed.It was deleted, I assume as it was very vague and soulless and criticised for it that he's gonna write something more detailed and satisfying.
Remarkably, that's the same thing a PDX guy (I think it was Johan) wrote in one of the earlier discussion threads as a comment: 'we didnt make a big apology because I think actions speak louder than works, and we'll just focus on putting out a fix instead'I don't care about apologies. I mean , they achieve nothing.
This 'actions speak louder than words' thing is a cynical attempt to deflect criticism. We shouldn't let up and we should keep on demanding an explanation, as you say, because that's what we really want right now.OR it was deleted after they realized it aged very badly in the span of the few hours it took for the save corruption issues to become noticed.

Which (the failure of the fix nonwithstanding) is a fair sentiment,
but I think it misses the critical issue that the public wants to know precisely the reason WHY this all happened in first place. Not a generic "sorry it happened, won't happen again" apology but a "sorry it happened, the causes were x y and z, we will now take those measures to prevent the same causes causing issues in future" one. Because without that latter part, you kinda imply that you didn't actually solve the root cause, and thus the same mistakes are going to happen again in future,
same as how people are rightfully pointing out that this is FAR from the first time that plainly obvious bugs slipped through PDX QA.
