it felt like steps in the right direction at the start, with the player housing reveal, the dedicated timeline of updates, the whole “we’re gonna listen to the players more” thing, etc. now it just feels like they’re just frantically patching holes in a leaking ship, but for each hole they fix, six new ones pop up, and they either don’t care or for some reason aren’t capable of fixing the actual cause of the holes
and to continue the boat metaphor, this whole game feels like the ship of theseus now. same name, same concept, completely different parts.
