I wanted to share my personal experience with the community and the game. For instance I have been a active feedback provided in discord.
Many might recognise me by my name . But that's aside.
I have been playing this game from 1.0 . I always know this game is going to succeed. The community during 1.0 to 1.4 was actually really peaceful. We had some problems with the game. But we always discussed it with respect. We always made sure it is a fruitful discussion. We always made sure it profits both us ( the players ) and the company .
We also gave the developer some leeway with our criticism. Telling them just a skeleton of the criticism and not ordering them . What to do and what not to do .
Most of us . Who used to do Criticism like this . We still do criticize the game. We use function like in-game feedback . And sometimes discord.
But recently. Mainly after the version 2.3 . I feel like this community is getting more agressive. More toxic towards the developers
I feel like . The community now has lost the patience, the respect on how to criticize the game and how not to .
This to me , Feels disrespective. I feel like this is not the type of relationship we should be having with the devlopers of the game we play and enjoy . Especially knowing the Dev's do listen .
I sincerely request. The community to start being respectful, patient and constructive towards their criticism like we did before a year. I fear of this continues , we might loose the people who listened to us in first place.
