"I don’t honestly think most players are interested in discussions of our design process"-GC

I actually am interested in hearing this! I think it would be fun to have a podcast or some sample of the actual discussion format in meetings. It would give a useful insight into the thought process, number usage, and asset allocation (and by that I mean...setting priorities to devote resources to solve particular problems).

Okay, perhaps I misspoke. I can imagine some players might be legitimately interested in how we come to our decisions.

The phenomenon I was refering to was when players don't like a nerf we made, so they start challenging our process as flawed instead of discussing the change itself (often because they sort of agree that yes, it may have been overpowered).
