A big part of feedback though is also transparency which is currently not being shown in an adequate way

Let’s use the Kaiten example

The devs deleted kaiten with functionally zero reason other than their stated reason of “action bloat”, they then specifically went on record saying “give it a try and give us feedback”. The community on both the JP and EN forums came together and overwhelmingly said “this is a bad idea” to the point EN has a megathread compiling megathreads on feedback to the Kaiten change

We did exactly what they asked us to do in regards to a change and then they have proceeded to literally never mention Kaiten again

What are we supposed to take from this interaction other than “give it a try and give us feedback” is basically a fancy way of saying “just accept the changes”. There was absolutely zero transparency with the way they handled Kaiten and this is leading people to not trust them and think they aren’t responding to any feedback at all. They are also cryptically opaque about the healer changes and a host of other issues
