Don't you find it strange that from the whole game developers in the world, they are the only ones crying? And guess what, they are the only ones that released a "really" unfinished game.

I guess it is a common strategy of MG, so you can feel guilty that you ask so much (a working game) or something.
Well, you think that it was the developer (MG) that forced the release of the game in this state? Come on... I guess it was 1C that pulled the funding and gave them an ultimatum to release or ditch the project. No way MG themselves after working for years with this code would release it in this state without a big axe over their neck.

So blaming the devs for the unfinished state really will not do any good. Myself I am very happy about the honest dialog Ilya is having about their efforts of fixing the game... Especially as a developer myself that has many times been forced to release code that was not in the desired state by managers that don't understand better.
