Instead, this place feels more akin to screaming into an abyss, so people just use the place to vent. Such is the absolute state of the official forums! If people truly hated this sort of thing, they'd stop bumping these threads.
This. Most other MMOs have their CMs talk to us and give us feed back and let us know that feed back has been heard, we occasionally even have the director talk to us about things wanted changed. One of the things I LOVE about ESOs community live streams is that they'll have the devs who made new systems come on to the stream to talk about what they're working on.

I've been saying it for a while, but Yoshida being vague is a detriment to this game, the devs not speaking on the new stuff they implement is a detriment to this game. If they were just more forthcoming and direct with us, if they just straight explained the direction 14 was going in, in layman's terms, the people who want to be here would be here and those who didn't like it would leave, forums would go back to memes and such. But sadly that isn't the case.

And no this isn't unique to us, even JP feels ignored, and it's sad and disheartening.
