Should SE implement a way to poll the playerbase?

[MicahZerrshia]

I think SE has made it pretty clear over the past 20 years of running mmos, they only really care what we say when they ignore everything we have already said and have to completely reboot their game. Many of the 1.x problems could have been fixed if they listened to those of us who tested it.

They go purely on numbers, like how they bragged about how many ppl were doing Eureka, even though the majority really seemed to hate it, but did it anyway since that was the only way to get a relic. To the point they doubled down on the system and made Bozja. And to boot both Eureka and Bozja were nothing but fate farms and the fate farm portions of the ARR and HW relics were the most hated part, still are in many cases. So, a poll in any form would be a pointless waste of time for us, and completely ignored by them unless they are losing enough money because of it.

TLDR: SE simply does not care unless it impacts them enough financially

edit: I want to point out that Yoshida acknowledged the hate toward the fate farming portion of the ARR and HW relics and promised to make adjustments accordingly and not to rely on fates so heavily going forward. So, you could imagine our shock when the next two relics were almost nothing but fate farms. It really makes you stop and wonder.
