I printed out the errata myself two weeks ago. 1 page for the Traitor's Tome. 1 page for The Survivor's Book. Some other number of basic rules related errata that was easily shrunk down to two pages and could have been shrunk more.

So yes, 4 pages is an incorrect statement. It could have been 3.

No, I'm replying to the only argument I've actually seen that wasn't a strict opinion based "They are poor" one. Granted, that argument actually wasn't presented in the thread and I didn't specify that.

Again, I wasn't replying to your statement at all and I apologize for not specifying that. You're just stating an opinion and really I can't argure with that. You found the pieces to be poor quality and I can see how someone could; I have no problem with the pieces and like them fine. There we go. And would bits of art for the 250+ pieces cost too much? I say probably.

I see your opinion of the game is poor based almost completely off your dissatisfaction with the production and I can understand that point of view. I don't expect everyone to like the same games. But this idea that anyone who expresses a like of the game is encouraging crap quality on every game to come is ridiculous. It's strictly a matter of different opinions.
