Sometimes it feels like the Community team has been tasked to interact with everyone except the player community. Don't call it a Community team if it's really a general marketing and publicity team.

I also wouldn't take it as a sign that YoshiP reads the Official forums. This isn't the only place where players leave feedback and talk about the game. He's already mentioned how he gets a lot of his information about player feedback (especially from NA and EU) from content creators like MrHappy.
I would LOVE a blog just detailing his JP interviews, and iirc the NA community managers are helping with events and translation for events at times, I know we have a new forum mod, but I never see or hear much from the NA community, and comparing them to the EU team who streams, it's kinda sad given i'd love an NA stream for us to talk about the game and push feed back through.

And honestly, I think Mr.Happy is the only affiliate we have left that actually does provide active feed back.
