And it's not "increasingly more frustration" - I've been here a long time, it's always been like this. Which in a way sort of makes sense - people who are happy are mostly just playing the game, while people who aren't complain, both to do so and eventually knowing they'll get an echo chamber egging them on around here. During ShB, it was the people who didn't like how the Ascians and Sundering got retconned. During EW, it was the people who didn't like how the retcon got retconned itself. During DT, it's the people who didn't like the "happy vibes" approach, sudden shift in the middle of the MSQ, or are just part of the segment of the gaming population who couldn't stand that they hired a trans VA. It's whoever is dissatisfied that spends most of their time here, while the people who like each set of changes just go back to playing the game.
    Yeah so weird the thing that gets linked when you navigate the in game menus to leave a suggestion for how to improve the game leads you here all so the devs can ignore it and pander to JP forum posts that have 2 upvotes

    The forums are always going to trend negative but that’s massively exasperated by the fact that the community team assigned to EN would rather sleep on the job then send our feedback to the devs; and we have evidence they don’t send our feedback because we have multiple instances of yoshi p going “wait that’s actually a problem you guys have” when presented with feedback that would take 2 seconds to find on the EN forums. JP even acknowledges this given the avatar refresh update where JP players broke their usually decorum of “don’t use google translate to post on the JP forums, post on the EN forums” to let us dump our complaints on the JP forums because even they know the devs only care about their forums and wanted to make their arguments stronger
