No, he said that it's not hard to rotate camera. Learn to read. Those sensationalist forced interpretation of someone else's words are annoying.
Did I not concur with that point? I agreed by not replying to it that it is not hard indeed. My point goes deeper then his, how about you learn how to discuss instead.
No, you did not concur. Instead you drew a far fetched conclusion by mixing someone else's words with your own opinions (no pathfinding = decreasing comfort of playing -> player retention unimportant), out of many possible ones, accepted it as a fact (or rather presented it as such) and tried to imply that this conclusion is what the other person was trying to say. It's extremely rude.
My point is simple. As a new player who started out with a group of 6 and is down to a group of 2 with a possibility of regaining players If a proper pathfinding is put in place and actually dying multiple times to the horrendous system in-place currently myself - and yet still playing - I see it as an easy fix to many people's problems. Try looking further then yourself for once.
Edit: Also, keep in mind that travelling in the game is a big part of it and it taking around 3 hours to get from the newb area to our current settlement for a joining player? you get stuck on trees, bushes everything all the time. Comfort of play is one of the significant and easy to improve areas for the game to be more of a quality product.
I'm still waiting for my favorite one - people quiting because there is no gay marriage in game. I find "the game has no pathfiding! I am not going to play the game until pathfiding is in!" complaint silly.
It's one thing to argue that adding it might be good for the game. And something completely different to paint the lack of it as gamebreaking issue.
