I don't know him well enough to try and change his mind on that, and to be honest I'd say it's a personal matter. I don't think he decided to feel like this, it's just the way he is.

I don't find it reasons to scapegoat someone for the way their life is, conversion camps and all that.

Maybe I misunderstood your post, but in this day and age I think it's a bigoted opinion you have. Perhaps you need to change to a more modern and accepting way of thinking.

I think he does care. From the recent interview he seemed very much determined to see this game with so much potential succeed. When he spoke about looking up at the night sky in his garden and saying "I've been there", that really made me realise that he values his game and team who really want to deliver all the promises from the kickstarter. He also acknowledged our frustrations with the game, but what he said about the complexity and mathematics involved on the scale Elite is, that does make you realise how much of a technical marvel this game is. Yes there are many unfinished parts of the game, but we have to appreciate that we still actually have a good game at the end of the day and eventually if we all keep behind the game and showing our enthusiasm for it to be successful, it will become the best space game of all time (I'm certain). Sure that other game has walking in ships and lots of fancy graphics but it's still not even a game yet.. Elite has been a game for years now and I think the path the devs took was the right way of doing it, unlike the other game.

Well, i think he cares about the success of his business from a corporate executive standpoint. He represents his company in the game development business scene rather than as an avid player of his own games. Yes i know there are executives who still claim to enjoy games but people can change and do what they want you can't hold it against them. Maybe its just changed from space games to corporate masterminding.

I did facepalm enough at the recent stream to type it here... with a massive frikkin grin hes almost laughing while he says it, he acknowledges that people only complain because they love they game, and its because they know that what people want isnt in it. He then he literally says thanks for caring, still laughing and leaves the stream. That's was pretty amazing stuff.
