Thank you for your unrelenting advocacy. I very much share your indignation (see
my plea to CDPR). Three things.
First, one of the problems I have identified is the silence from the PC community. As soon as the mods went live, the outcry lost pulse and all its vigor. Their silence, a direct result of the availability of mods, projected a state of community satisfaction--to CDPR's eye at least. In reality, the community silence was a false proxy because it completely ignored the dissatisfaction of console players.
Second, as you correctly point out, the decision to move this thread may have been one bereft of any rationality in light of the fact that the change was most probably unintended, unwelcome, and caused widespread confusion. And I say this without prejudice to the fantastic and unrelenting work of the mods. Even though I may disagree with their decision to move the thread, they ultimately have the last word and their judgment takes precedence. So I would not suggest overtly directing your anger towards them.
Third, I think the PC community needs to be more vocal if we are ever going to see the old textures restored. The console community must also show broad consensus towards the restoration of pre-1.20 armor textures.
If you want my opinion though, you have to find it in you to let this one go. Just like the slow walk controversy from 1.07, you will most likely have to accept it.
