Because it shows that, very clearly, the response to BL has not been as negative as it has been made out to be. Also, there is no reason to talk down to "casuals". Casual fans deserve as much of a say in the development of a game as the superfans do. Games can be broken by only catering to what the top fans want, just look at games like R6 Siege, the devs constantly cater to the E-sports people rather than the more casual playerbase.Yeah, exactly. I don't know why people bring up stuff like player counts or what have you because, ultimately, casuals drown out superfans. It is arguing against their own interests because casuals are perfectly fine with Bannerlord and the guy who plays three hours a week is going to have a very different set of experiences when it comes to Bannerlord's development.
I'm not saying you specifically said this whatsoever, but I get a sense that people on this forum only want those on the forum to be heard on the state of the game. Just looking at the Steam reviews and pointing that they don't really say much in order to invalidate them. People don't need to write out paragraphs as to why they like a game, all they need to do is leave a positive review. If you look at WB, their reviews, while overwhelmingly positive, are basically the same as BL's. It is an incredibly elitist attitude that kinda needs to die. Creating an "us vs them" is never good.
Genuinely at some point you'll have to. TW should listen to what people want, but once it becomes clear that it won't be that game there isn't much you yourself can do. TW has a lot more positive praise to listen to than disgruntled fans. I've said this before that this doesn't mean that you're wrong, but you're just simply outnumbered. Catering to a more casual audience works.All 100% correct but we're not going to just give up, we were here in the beta telling them how to fix the game and we'll be here at full release, sure the amount of constructive feedback is practically 0 at this point but that's on TW's being useless
i'd rather burn in hell than let some 5 minute forum andy tell me to move on from a game that was suppose to be the successor to my favorite game of all time
The game that you have pictured in your mind is most likely never going to be real, and if it will be it won't be for a while.
