I.e. have you ever seen football players or F1 pilots, telling us, that something is bad in industry, they're involved in? For example F1 is borefest now due to new technical regulations - pilots have to save engines, gearboxes, fuel, tires - not to push themselves and their cars to their limits, so races become more strategical and their results are predetermined in 99% cases. No that "ENGINE CAN BLOW AT ANY MOMENT" factor. Yeah, I understand, that since tobacco sponsors were thrown away, they have been short of money, but it doesn't mean, they need to invent such nonsense regulations, like last man standing "all 20 races with one engine and gearbox" one. But have you ever seen any officials or pilots, complaining about it? No! Everything is fine, because engine manufacturers want to push their hybrid crap! And pilots are just people, who are being paid for this.
Same with game industry. GC has to be positive about it. And positive in this case means - blame players, not game. Players don't unsub, cuz game is flawed, cuz game can't be flawed. Yeah, GC no longer work in Blizzard, but, I guess, he still can't tell us any real truth about it, like what were the real reasons of Cata and MOP design changes, that caused so big fails. May be some day he will write memoirs...
