Be glad we're getting events at all, they could have gave us nothing.
I love the devs and appreciate them a lot, but we're customers.

Something I've never understood among gaming communities is the idea that games are some sort of special favor or gift that developers give to us that we must be grateful for. So many other gaming companies put in almost as much work and are hardly looked at because of the larger games. They struggle and die without even being noticed, taking jobs and hopes with them. Being a top game is a privilege you should earn. With any other product in real life, if the quality drops the customer finds something else.

As long as people aren't rude or abusive towards the developers, there is no shame in being disappointed. It's not entitled. It's quite the opposite, when you're disappointed but have enough faith to leave feedback and keep paying them your money. Players who complain with legitimate feedback but continue to play are what keep games alive. The "positive" crowd who will never highlight legitimate issues and the silent leavers are the ones that kill games.
