And so is stifiling those testers so they cannot speak about solid game mechanics that should never have to be revamped this late in the game, while the hype machine builds without any recourse, and spin deflected left and right about real reasons why Microsoft dropped the game 4 years after development.

It's already been said, and I'll say it again. You can pass judgement on a game 4 years into development. If this is all they have come up with after this amount of time, where beta testers do not even want to log in to tedious and idiotic game design, terrible quest plots, borish combat, retarded crafting designs; while at the same time hiding all that behind an NDA because the people in charge know full well their design isn't popular but it is too late to do anything about it now so they need to make sure box sales stay high by spinning everything under the sun -- then let people say whatever they would like to to make sure history doesn't keep repeating itself.

I guess all those are major bonuses to the expansion (or patch 1.11 as the case may be) and they're going through major overhauls to make them fun.
Let me know when it takes 5 people to harvest a piece of wood from a tree in WoW, and I'll tell them they need a major overhaul as well.
