What a waste.

It sounds like the author was not deeply familiar with the game and under pressure to get the guide out fast. We can see he had to way over extend his data (clear copy and paste of internet rumourmongering and speculation as well as confusing the innate abilities of his class with those of his race on his new iksar monk).

This is peak capitalism at work; putting out shit products to milk untapped niches and exploiting customers attempting to overcome their own ignorance.

I feel bad for the team that made it, but someone must have been laughing all the way to the bank.
Sounds a lot like what just happened to Warcraft 3 Reforged. Shitty overhaul of the game that downgraded a lot of features, added models into the game that just didn't hold any fidelity to the originals, took a working battle.net system and killed it by trying to implement an entirely new system from scratch replete with bugs that weren't a thing in the original, etc, etc. Pushed out welllll before it was ready because Activision probably wanted to parlay the money into more Call of Duty content.
