You're right about the poision but I think it's a lot more complicated than that, and much could be cured not only by the devs fixing various elements, but fixing the line sof communication. Taking them seriously, for example. No, they dont owe anyone a living, but they do have a lot of ground to make up if the y want to sell more games IMO. If they dont, then I'd suggest they carry on as they have been.
