Thank you. I can't find those quotes, but I know they exist. Also goes to show how much some people just don't know about how companies work.

All a role playing game is assuming a role of a character. There is no definition of what the systems have to be. Sure, people have placed high priority on things like stats, abilities, traits, races, classes, quests, choice, rewards, and so on. But those are all preferences. Is Skyrim an RPG? It is a dumbed down version of Oblivion which is a dumbed down version of Morrowind. There are many who think Skyrim is no longer an RPG. WoW was a very dumbed down version of EQ at launch. Many though WoW was not an RPG back then.
Just becasue one feels it no longer is one doesn't make it so. You can not like the direction, but it doesn't remove it from being an RPG.
