While recent posts suggest TFP might be dumb, I think they're making this game in the best way possible. They are presenting their game, their vision, and giving us every opportunity to change it to match our own vision of the game. Everybody wins and nobody loses as long as people realize TFP's version is all their own and not up for negotiation (meaning they are in control, not us).
