Absofuckinglutely. Not that tough to figure out to whom you're indirectly referring to.As for the quality of writing, everyone should accept an average level. English is not mandatory, not all developers are native English speakers, and the ability to juggle from the jargon of repeaters in high school to the Queen's English takes years of study.
The picky ones should demonstrate their linguistic capabilities in a language other than their native language. Only then will we be able to talk.
Mr. L&P is slightly astute and smarter than some may think. Since he's with big boys in the sandbox now, different set of rules gotta be applied here. Initial release only in English for obvious reasons. More or less comprehensible depiction of events, inner thoughts etc.
How many of us actually took time to read every line of this update? I know I skipped at least 30% and I bet that out of hundreds if not thousands who played it the ratio would be higher as the audience of these particular games not playing them to savor the exquisite syllable of the artist. No one expects the rhymes akin to Byron's' or the depth of ideas similar to Locke's.
AWAM isn't on the level of dialogue "why can't his sausage meet her buns" so far and that's more than enough for the majority.
I guess it would've been an amusing experiment if the dev releases one of his updates in German or his native language and then adds translation via the patch later on. I'd laugh my ass off to witness the reaction of the advocates of the language purity.
