Developers.
I'll try and be less vague. In the thread regarding this incident, it was stated that Intruders do not have source code, since in the history of computer games development, no-one ever uploaded their source code to their forums.
Reading between the lines at EM, you can easily identify a core of people who complain about and accuse EM of everything and act in a militant way. in 2007 people were hacking Tomb Raider and posting samples of Crystal engine stuff on EM forums (lol). They're pretty tedious, because they cry wolf about every little thing and don't give up on certain issues either, not to mention also, some of them seem to know very little about DX1 and their accusations are sometimes ridiculous.
As much as I like the first game, it's pretty dumb not to realize that DXHR is being released 11 years later, when both the gamers, the industry and the way it's marketed have changed. I don't really care how "console" the game is, if the story, characters, interactions, choices etc are as good as they look.
The highlighting debate was a complete screw up anyway, instead of being "fixed", you have the option to remove it. So if you choose highlighting, it's still going to glow at you from a distance. Given that EM was a new studio, and attempting such a difficult project, some fans have really done little to help by being idiots on the forums.
