The writer explains well for what reason his team thought the playtest would yield little to no useful results and also how that presumption lead to his team being sloppy when planning the playtest, at least when it comes to building the game in Unity. He then was positively surprised by the feedback he got, in the way that the feedback was actually very useful. The author describes the issues that his team didn’t think about in detail and what they learned about these issues from player trying out their game and finding creative ways to break their game. The alpha playtest seems to have positively surprised their group in its usefulness, which is an experience my group has made as well. Overall I think this is a very well written Blog Post that describes the authors experience in depth and tells the reader what he and his group learned during from their mistakes.
