Or are there multiple developers working on whichever subject they feel like, independent of and at times against each other?
A few statements lately about their work on some bugs/not bugs/bugs too make me think, it might be the latter.
If so, isn’t the attempt to explain what the developers are doing a pointless and damaging effort from the start? If we replace all game announcements with “Things happen, maybe”, it might be more honest and reliable.
