The state of the Game

[Shinku_Tachi]

My thoughts exactly. Even when it comes to giving actual and structured feedback, they take it too personal, clouded by their fanboyism to Yoshi P who they place on a pedestal mumbling the same mind-numbing things over like 'Stop playing it if you don't like it'. Unless the man is paying you, you're just part of a cult or a troll.

I wish these people would drill this into their troglodyte minds...WE ARE PAYING for the service, so we as customers, have the right to criticize it. Is just as easy as your favorite restaurant that you’ve been going to for ages and suddenly their food quality drops to garbage levels, you criticize it so they get back on track to what once made them good for you to eat there on repeat and even bring your family and friends. Why is this so hard to understand, is beyond?

Over time, this community has grown very toxic around this, so I don't even know how they still consider themselves 'Wholesome'.

Fortunately, for those hoping for some change. The backlash has been big enough that it was even brought up at a shareholders meeting. SE is 100% aware. The player data corroborates the backlash too, so it's long past the point of being able to be explained away by the toxic positivity crowd.

I'm optimistic they'll be able to course-correct tho. They have before, as you know.
