Kevin Lambert .plan-and Monolith -- 2:20 pm CST, Update by The Master

Monolith's Kevin Lambert updated his .plan today with the following observation:
It's nice to see Sanity and NOLF included in the PCParadox viewer's choice poll. Considering that the marketing campaign hasn't even really started with these titles yet, it pleasantly surprised me that we're acknowledged out there. Sure, there are a lot of gaming sites that follow our games in general, but I wasn't aware how dedicated all the gamers out there are to the titles that they're looking forward to... So I just wanted to say thanks to all the gamers out there who support us and our titles. We'll do our best to deliver the goods as long as the government doesn't find out about our plans to hack into the pentag... er...nevermind that.
What bothers me is Monolith really doesn't deserve this level of following in the industry. They've been horrible at supporting their fanbase, and as far as I can tell seem to care less than nothing about them in general outside of the financial gain of selling to them.

I have been an observer in much of the Shogo debacle, and if that's any sign of Monolith's support for the game industry they'd REALLY have to impress me to get me to buy a game from them. Maybe give away the source for their engine free so I could actually create good add-ons and fix stupid bugs that they don't care about after the profit margins decrease...

Okay, I'll get off my rant-box now.
