And a final point.
If EM don't want to make games I wish to purchase then they should not bitch about it when I refuse to buy them or when I tell other people why I refuse to buy them.

You're right Emse, they should stop doing this forthwith!
All the moaning and bitching EM do! Oh Lordy Lord! It's enough to make me play Dishonored again.

Anybody claiming the game will somehow be ruined because you can't free jump, when there is no reason to be jumping, would have to agree that Gran Tourismo is ruined because you can't choose to pop the trunk - right? No, of course not.
To compare open the trunk of a car to
jumping is absurd. EM needs to learn to analogy.

How to be a suck-ass community manager-- Step 1: When posting a message to address a widespread concern about one of your team's design decisions, make sure the first word of the message is "LOL". This will send the clear message that you hold your fans and their opinions in amused contempt. Step 3: Profit.

Not to mention belittling the community that you're supposed to be managing, as opposed to convincing and reassuring them.

Pretty much all the comments on this trailer over on Reddit are concerning Mr. b1skit's complete lack of decorum or sense displayed in that post. I wonder if he'll still have a job next week after this, I mean, the marketing is struggling hard enough as it is without him undermining it at every turn.
Then again, they're clearly phoning in the game, maybe they honestly don't care if their public liasons are phoning it in as well. :D

Yeah, his over all tone was contemptuous but at the same time it felt like he was pleading. Come on guys, you didn't have a problem with this when you saw the E3 demos! Terrible analogies.
@thiefinthedark You are right. I don't know how many taffers here are also redditors but the consensus seems to be similar.

Don't know what you call b1skit's post but I'd call it bitching
But you can dismiss my views all you want, I don't mind

I've said it before and I'll say it again -- immersion is not something that has to be maintained by the developer at all times, it's something that the players voluntarily engage in. All the developer has to do is provide the tools and the environment, make the world interesting and rewarding to explore, and the rest is up to the player. Take Morrowind, for example. You can break it in million little ways and a thousand big ones, yet it is one of the most immersive experiences out there.

You know the more I think about it the more I begin to wonder if perhaps the whole "no free-jumping because IMMERSION LOL" BS is just an excuse to cover up the lack of real sound propagation in the game which would have been apparent the first time the player jumped and none of the AI gave a damn.
