We need to compromise as a player base

[GTK0HLK]

Game developers dont make promises. They state wants,goals and aims none of which are promises and never will be.

I think your energy is better spend trying to get people to collate and consolidate the information so it doesn't overload/lag.
Which I assume is what you want, but always linking and posting to the same thing(which at this point everyone knows, cause you've said repeatedly.) doesn't help or stop, but make others perpetuate it even more.

we Know at the core what they want, their limits, their PR speak, and also that they do their utmost to met and achieve what they desire.

Which for the Devs, is to balance what their projections are, and feed the consumer enough to keep them happy.

Sadly, your method of going about it could only succeed in a complete freeze of feedback.

I’m sorry, but I don’t agree. People have every right to express their upset, and it is not our job to tone police ourselves so that the devs don’t get scared of trying new things. Many people, myself included, are extremely unhappy with how our characters look, and nebulous ideas about “bringing the game into the future” are not worth the heartbreak of feeling like you’re losing a character you’ve grown attached to for years. Update the graphics, sure, but don’t take our characters from us.

Then dont get upset when they dont try new things.

All feedback is good feedback, even negative feedback.

Dont over complicate a very simple matter. Give feed back and leave the mentally induced idea of promise out of it.

Why are you assuming I would? I would RATHER they change nothing that make bad changes. I’m really sorry that other people having negative feedback to give bothers you so much.

While I was very excited about the graphics update, I can't help but feel very down about losing most of my characters, specially my main ones. I've tried to accept this to the best of my ability and design something new, but the thing is I'm not liking the way faces look right now in general, so anything I could make now will be worse than what I had before.

This whole matter has been so discouraging to me that I'm considering just quitting the game, as there's no point playing a character I don't like.

OK, and where do the majority of people that expressed a promise not met are?

I know some are there, but when you read it, it gets boiled down to Mostly Reasonably accepted Objectives.

They understand that Subsurface, Textures, And the Rearranged polygons will change the character looks.

If they don't know that, they are subtly informed.

If the gamma becomes an issue, they are also informed.

So now, reading everything. As well as they praise, they know what is information, and isn't.

What it seems, is that you only are focusing on the Fake tree, and not collating the information that is eventually spread and shared.

I see about a majority like how the individual changes are great, but the small things throw them off.

Things that don't make sense and have spread out.

People actively know that, and the devs will see it as easily by just reading.

(You even hear that JP has it worse atm. So I wouldn't doubt there is someone over there saying the same thing)

The promise is the goal both the players, and devs want.

Its not Over Complicated, it's cut and dry, no matter how long it takes, changes will be applied by devs, and players will acclimate to the changes that are temporary, or not yet fine tuned.

The promise being an issue wasn't on all others.

And now that everyone is more informed, the issue isn't keeping people from a "Mentally Induced Idea of Promise", but leading them to where they can express their concerns.
Get informed, Collate, and Consolidate.

Just like the Fang thread, Individual Race Threads.

And all else.

The one thing that has become an issue, is what you believe the "promise" has become.

Which is just a couple of threads some users with feeling to feel have made.

The tldr: your energy unfortunately was being spend on someone else's viewpoint that the majority aren't really getting hung up on.

They are getting informed and slowly consolidating. But not as fast as it could of.

Regardless, At least you helped eliminate most of the idea that some had about feedback.

But you feel deep into the "Promise"

Negative feed back doesnt bother me. But the game being stagnate does and this game is stagnate and needs to send some lambs to the slaughter.

I truly don’t understand what your goal is here. You have been all over every single thread about the graphics update for hours now, repeating the reminder that adjustments will be made before release while simultaneously attempting to shut down or belittle any criticism being offered. Where do you think the final adjustments are going to come from if not from player feedback?

More to the point, if you’re going to take the attitude that displeasing a large portion of players is some sort of necessary sacrifice, I have no further reason to engage with you. Let’s not even get into the implications of you telling me, even metaphorically, that I need to be led to slaughter.

You are accomplishing nothing except being rude and unhelpful. My condolences to anyone else who has to put up with it today.

I’m not yet sure that I can joyfully go into the future with the version of my character that I saw in the benchmark.
I'm also not sure that I should invalidate my feelings about my character so that the developers don't lose morale.
And I'm absolutely not sure that I should feel grateful for the way my character looks in benchmark.

What I'm sure of is that the situation must be corrected. I continue to hope that this is not the final version (as the benchmark description says), I continue to hope that this will be fixed. My compromise is to wait patiently for fixes and describe those details that I see as incorrectly performed.

I love this game very much, it made me happy. I liked everything, I never expressed any complaints. I enjoyed my character and our journey together. I would like to be able to continue doing this. And it's because of this I'm writing here now, on this forum.

I don't want to suppress my current feelings for the sake of an ephemeral “bright future” and benefit. This is an unhealthy position.
