User blog comment:Jkphantom9/Shane Newville: "An Open Letter to All Who Treasured Monty Oum"/@comment-24113789-20160513051133/@comment-3257939-20160513153742

No, you're remembering perfectly right. It's one of the things that felt off to me up to the point that I thought Shane was lying. He is the only one claiming that Monty's ideas were overlooked all the time whereas everyone else always talked to us, the fans, about how the process of creating was at the office and how they were always brainstorming around each other.

Miles, Kerry, Jeff, Gray, and most importantly, Monty himself, were always together in this process. But according to Shane, that is not truth at all. It was always RT's doing. Monty didn't get a say on anything.
