I don't think it's arrogant, I think it's actually really interesting how they talk about the "fantasy" of the game. I get not everyone plays the game for the same reason, but I understand the devs' vision of the game really being about the feel of being a hero against the odds, not having the most effecient loadout or unlocking everything as fast as possible.

I'm getting irrationally angry at everyone crying about the hard difficulties being "too hard". Diff 7, which is the last "mandatory" difficulty to obtain everything in the game, has decent balance imo. It's not easy by any stretch but it's not impossible, or even "too hard". It's challenging and can definitely get very chaotic, even if you bring your A-game, and that's good.
