Very well put.
Don't want to go off topic, but these foundations have been in place for years. I managed an Electronics Boutique 10+ years ago and saw this crap release/poor reception/buy on hope next year behavior there. (Insert Madden joke here) Thought it would be a dream job, turned off by the business realities. And crap pay.
That being said, given the complexity and depth of what OOTP offers, I go in expecting some rough spots-- using the time between release and eventual patches to tinker and brainstorm ideas so once the "final" version is out, I can get down to you know...playing my league. Just in time for next year's version
Also, I know iOOTP has been made a scapegoat of sorts, but the game is fantastic. Might be the most fun I've had since OOTP 6.5.
