I think it is an atempt to depress others to say something like "why try?"
There was also a mention that Obsidian (or who ever makes KotOR 3) would not look at what fans have to say. <_<
Well, to this I say...
If a developer never looks at what his fans have to say you get crazy things like bad storys, bad game play, etc,. The reason is quite simple, it is ment for someone, it is expected to be handed over as a done product that is of value. If you never look to see if it is valuble to the end user, you NEVER know if it is what people want. This is why many marketing guys in the world deserve to be fired. He sits in an office and tries to "dream up" what is going to get peoples attention. You NEVER DO THAT!!!!! You find out what people want, then what you can make. Then you don't have to dream up much of anything, because you now KNOW!
And if they pay us no attention they get this as well as statements like "God that @#$%@ they completly #$&@up the... they should be shot!" Not to mention getting fired.
But anyway, do also keep in mind that KotOR is a popular subject and people may just want to "get it out".
