[Interview] Ghostcrawler explains the problem with Blizzard: "At Blizzard we (the developers) are the rockstars, at other companies the players are."

Hi all,I've seen a comment in this sub a few days ago which linked to a very interesting Youtube Video and wanted to share it with you.It is an Interview with the ex lead game designer of WoW, Greg Street also known by his handle "Ghostcrawler", he was for a long time the head of WoW Game Design and in this interview he talks about how the development and attitude towards the game and the players at Blizzard is and why he changed his job mostly because of that. It's very interesting especially today because it shines a light to the development process at Blizzard and why there is this big gorge between the devs on one side and the players on the other regarding the WoW: Beta for Azeroth Expansion, the Azerite System etc.I've linked it to the timestamp especially about WoW/Blizzard but you should watch the complete interview.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOXvOX8w7rY&feature=youtu.be&t=21m56s

The problem isn't that we're not enjoying BFA, the problem is Blizzard refuses to accept it.

Reading a lot of the blue posts lately it seems like Blizzard are more and more interested in covering systems they have in place rather than accept that a large portion of the player base aren't enjoying them, since Legion they've made changes to systems or added incomplete systems (I refuse to believe that during the course of BFAs testing no one brought up Sanguicell not being used in a bunch of professions for instance)​Right now Blizzard we need you to accept that mistakes have been made and that your player base is crying out on a daily basis to fix them yet you have given us no honest response to this. Lores response to questions posed by the community pretty much sums up my argument on how instead of taking feedback in and listening you are constantly trying to tell us how we should be enjoying the game and putting systems in place that remove power from players. I feel drastically less powerful than I was during the height of a conflict with the Burning Legion and hav...
