The forums are flawed as the main way to collect player feedback.

I don't personally think pointing to the Census and referring to the player MC (which I assume is what they mean by reviews) are memes or bad faith.

I also find it interesting that regional bias is being claimed, when JP forums agree with OP here that the 7.1 changes are bad. The major push to decrease mount tilt came from US forums before the feature even went live. I remember.

Also they do have a survey for players who quit. If you are someone who wants that. As I keep saying.
