Almost every game I'll have a category that says "progressed" but there's no increase whatsoever on the attribute bar
Are you sure about the "no increase" thing?
Remember that as your stat gets higher, it's going to take more and more "plusses" to fill a bar...
So for example, durability. When I have a 40+ durability, and I only get a couple of plusses from being in the game, the increase will be a "tiny sliver" that barely moves the bar, but after a month of getting these tiny slivers the bar will have moved.
I get this same "tiny sliver" effect (on beginner difficulty hitting, so every pitch is going to be a strike I swing at) with VIS - if I only foul off 1 pitch, the gain is so minisule that I barely see the blinking red-yellow "gain" marker.
The "progress shown but no actual gains ever seen" issue so far has affected only pitch stats and I see a "normal" progression that "repeats" from about the same poiont every game...
(Theory for now) ...until I do an act that "crests" the stat from the "stuck" value to the next point better in one go, like a gold-medal training session during a double-gain period
