Reddit vs. the Forums in the Graphics War of '24

[DiaDeem]

Some of you have some weird parasocial relationships with SE employees.

Dude, all I'm saying is that whatever this place was supposed to be, in practice, is little more than a mess filled with a bunch of nonsense and bloated information that hardly helps anyone.

I'm out. I'm wasting my time.

I've been saying for months now that they should be sending curated surveys to get accurate direct feedback from people instead of whatever this forum has become, let alone a third party board such as Reddit or Twitter.

Here's a post from me 10 years ago:

Have you considered holding another player's poll to determine how players feel about content? Currently when talking about content you only seem to mention clear rates or number of people participating in it, but this doesn't take into account players who do content out of obligation rather than enjoyment. While the forums do provide some feedback, it is only a small slice of players. It would be nice to know if the game's current direction is in line with what the people playing it want.

In case you're wondering, they didn't respond. Feel discouraged yet?
