I'm surprised no one here posted this. There was an interview with Alex Moffit posted on EuroGamer in response to the lake guardian shiny rate, which was conducted in Los Angeles while they were showing off the Showcase and Route features they plan on adding to the game soon at Summer Game Fest:
>It was a technical bug in nature, but I do know with 100 percent confidence, our engineering team [are] super aware of the root cause. The issue is resolved as we communicated, which is good.
>But the broader point that I would touch on there: quality. Clearly it's an important thing and maybe not something that we've been the best at as of late - maybe throughout much of our history. And I can very confidently say that is something that we as a leadership team are echoing consistently from the tip top.
>There's been meaningful change throughout this entire year. A lot of times that tooling, that quality work that goes on behind the scenes can be even more ambitious as, let's say, a new [feature] in and of itself. There are some really, really smart people hard at work on like making things better, because we know we want to do better, we can do better, but it doesn't happen overnight.
>The good thing is like train set in motion. I think there's better stuff on the horizon.
I find it really hard to believe that they're really doing anything to improve the quality of this game. At best, the engineers are learning how to code and getting proper experience working with the game while they try to add these half-baked features, but even then that might be giving them more credit than they deserve.
