A very illustrative anecdote:I have been a game developer (for a very short amount of time) and if i was this terrible to be stuck in developing one game for 5 years I would blow up everything i have and become a farmer instead
A lawyer's son comes home and tells his dad: "That case which you couldn't solve for ten years... is actually so easy! I solved it in just one day!"
Hearing this, father sinks face in his hands: "My god, I raised an idiot! You ruined the case that was feeding our family for all these years!"
Just read this post. It perfectly sums up what going on with development of this game.
