I know people hate on Yamiks over here, but I was half listenening to him and Exigeous yesterday on their streams. They've both been fairly critical of the game and the launch. But they do it out of their passion for the game. I believe that some of the honest assessments are valid, and as much as Yamiks loves to beat a dead horse, he wants to play a great Elite game. We all do.
Definitely be interested to see how the streamer community that received the gifts respond to the game though.
