Using your new post, it suggests you'd expect the original post to read "I thought this the shit was abandoned" as a correct way to talk about it in a positive manner. Others would consider that completely incorrect and no one says that anywhere.
But I don't think you think that. More likely, you replied too quickly.
Let's wait for them to reply though. Maybe they do think this game is shit and you pondering why they'd want to play the update is a valid question.
