(Posted this to the steam discussion section of the itemization update but I thought I would also put it here too. Frankly I’m really tired of the devs being absolutely abused and I wanted to share a bit of gratitude for them in a place that they were more likely to see it.
They are people like any of us with a passion for the thing we too love and the VAST majority of what I see is just rude, negative, mean behaviour that wouldn’t be tolerated anywhere in the real world but is apparently OK because it’s online. Not good enough people, they deserve much better.)
"The devs don’t deserve this…
So upset to see all this negativity in the comments. People have been asking for this, it is now being done and there are still people here that clearly don’t care about the game ergo are only here to be scumbags. Really not good. No one acts this way in the real world and it is genuinely depressing to see people treat others that are doing their best so callously. The team are, slowly sure, doing all the stuff that people have been asking for and they are just met with hate every step of the way. (Not by everyone, I get that, there are some here that aren’t complete ingrates. Good on them for spreading a little positivity.)
I for one am thrilled by the proposed changes. the dev team aren’t the fastest in the world, I think that is a fair criticism, but they ARE still working on the game and making it better. AND they clearly listened to the feedback. AND they are much, much better than they were about clearly communicating to the players what they are doing and why. That is far more than many, many, MANY games. I’m really grateful.
This attitude from players would, for so many developers, result in the game being abandoned and the players that do want the game to keep getting better, would be left to rot.
Thanks FS for continuing to work on the game despite the truly endless waves of negativity that are thrown your way seemingly no matter what you do. Good luck guys."
