Well getting all huffy over the hypothetical tweet would be overly dramatic as well.
I just took it as claiming that if you dislike DLC, micro-transactions and all the other oft-complained about aspects of 'corporate' gaming then Torment is the game for you. Which is pretty lazy-ish marketing I suppose, but nothing more than that, certainly not that a good story is opposed to those.
But then I might be not paying all that close attention.
