Community engagement. (Gaming)

More than issues with the game, the way Digital Extremes talks to its community is something I wish Bungie would take note of.

Bungie built this fancy twitch studio and they use it twice a year to try and sell the new expansion. Why?

Remember last time? A scandal came up (was it the XP thing?), and they canceled the stream to address the issue in a write up. Why not address the issue in the stream? Because it's harder to ensure a stream is the carefully crafted bullshit you can get perfect in text? Give me something real--use that fancy new studio to actually talk to us, rather than using it for bad marketing.

This doc was great. I'm going to try Warframe now, for sure. Whether I end up liking it or not, I have an immense amount of respect for Digital Extremes, their attitudes, what they've accomplished.
