Concerns I want to share
-
(These are just MY opinions. Everything is not black and white. There are nuances to each point.)
Point 1
2 months of bad communication with player base
(Example):
Server goes down for 8+ hours, not one word from any of the social media contacts not one word about anything while still advertising game content during said down time. (I know they have scheduled tweets that does NOT excuse 0 response on social media for hours)
