@Casuals , do you think the message has gotten through?

huh... ok...
I was expecting some positive takes. I know that the forums isn't where you spend your time if your enjoying the game... but I was expecting some.
I'm now kind of feeling like I;m the closest thing to a casual who was positive about the live letter. (That said I did switch off pretty much once it was clear FT was dealt with and they were moving into atma and gold and bunny rate minutiae.)
Well I don't want them punished for the live letter, but on the other hand, I think its bitter medicine they need to take sooner rather than later.

Maybe Live Letter > 'the feedback' , will create an opportunity that can only now capitalise on.

Think twice CB3 if that DD100+ is another Criterion.
There is a difference between Ex and Savage I assume? I know Ex is at the limit of what I enjoy in terms of guides , need for strategies, and fight style.
I also suggest you think about making sure people can progress all the way to 100 without needing a static, or to sit in PF for 2 hours waiting for people who are up for a 3 hour session because thats how long it take. I'm not going to be here, but if I was I doubt I'd be interested in running it with 3 people, and certainly not 2 or solo.
"will casuals enjoy this?"
"Will they get to access it all?"
That is the beginning, the middle, the end, and the all of what matters now. Other interests? Well apparently its an option to deal with them by just ignoring them.

Not the case. I do actually still enjoy the game, and - as posted in another thread - recently cleared my first Ex (Recollection Ex) which was quite an achievement for me considering I'm a really poor performer overall.

However, the fact that I still enjoy the game doesn't suggest I think it's perfect and YoshiP can do no wrong. I found the Liveletter disappointing and don't feel the Q&A truly addressed any of the concerns that were raised. You shouldn't watch something like that and come away from it asking yourself why he even bothered taking those questions.

I'm not clear though on whether you think anything has now 'changed'.
Yes yours happy-ish. But I'm getting you already were. Well savage and ultimate raiders were hardly the most dissatisfied either.

This is about those who aren't happy. They will need a change.
Do you detect a change?
(I'm not clear. Also I haven't asked why they did it at all, most of that is obvious and needn't have 'anything' to do with change. That's more their independent agenda. I'm looking for a shift agenda 'that overlaps with our' as agenda.)
