Please refrain from giving the spotlight exclusively to CC's [They Cant suggest SHIT]

[quick chasm]

Yes because most pol will obvs VOTE FOR THE MOST OVERDONE SHIT god im so tired of seing the same five animes in these kinds of games let them add more unique things please it gets so boring seeing the same shit again and again

Because if the majoroty voted we would never escape the same 5 animes you do realise this right

And thats fucking horrible for content variety

[viscid ivy]

A poll for for new gen anime: old gen that’s not done/overdone and guilty gear would still end up at bottom + you know it’s logical I don’t mean jjk part 2/ one piece / demon slayer

[dense lodge]

Devs should respond to spotlight suggestions

W or L take?

[native sundial]

W but in an ideal world

problem being that a reponse to a suggestion would lead to people arguing and dragging the dev into discussion
no dev response would cover every person's doubt in one go and no one would be satisfied
they already have such a lengthy schedule for each upd

[narrow cradle]

Av devs after a long day of working for 15 minutes

[native sundial]

yeah probably

i dunno about how long they work on the game

but adding 30 mins of discussing on suggestions would make worse ig

they also have jobs irl tho, dunno how they manage game devving simultaneously

[narrow cradle]

It does not take 30 minutes to write a response to a suggestion

[native sundial]

no see

ofc it doesnt

one response is easy

problem is, not a single soul will be happy with one response

[narrow cradle]

They will be if its an actual response

[native sundial]

unless we bring the dev into discussion and keep arguing w them for a ton of time

[narrow cradle]

That addresses the issue in the suggestion

But they dont do that

[native sundial]

but if they dont address it the way we want then it will always become a stretched out argument

we know how that goes in suggestions

the only way

[narrow cradle]

They can just not engage in the follow up ig

[native sundial]

a single response can ever be sufficient

is if they just agree with the suggestion 🤡

just make the OP happy and peace out

[narrow cradle]

No Im sure there are good reasons they might decline something

[native sundial]

that's the prob tho
if they do that, it wont be enough

ive seen pyseph try it once

[narrow cradle]

And the trash suggestions wont even reach spotlight anyway

[native sundial]

and people kept fighting with them

even though they closed that post with a legitimate reason

with a whole msg

[narrow cradle]

Because pysephs responses are ass

[native sundial]

people start msging in other posts saying they're ass and they're take is wrong

*their mb lmao

[narrow cradle]

Half the time he just insults the players

[native sundial]

see that's what im saying

it's still going to spark an argument

and someone or the other will bring the dev into a lengthy argument

because someone or the other will believe that the devs are wrong for saying what they said

[narrow cradle]

It wouldnt happen if its a good, though out response

Unless people want to bait ig

[native sundial]

i could show you an example 😭

[narrow cradle]

But those can just be ignored

[native sundial]

if i find it though

[narrow cradle]

Let me guess: your example just magically disappeared

[native sundial]

nono i was just worried the post might have been deleted or smtn

found it

im not that cheap gng im being serious

this isnt an argument against u

[narrow cradle]

Literally cant go a second without insulting the players

"Go outside"

[native sundial]

LMAO

[narrow cradle]

Yea sorry for wanting to play the game

[native sundial]

agreed but

they did give a legitimate reponse for the first half

with numbers from whatever data they have

but people kept spamming in other posts

[narrow cradle]

Yea if we got a response like this to all suggestions then I wouldnt have a problem

But we dont

[native sundial]

cools

i mean some of us would agree ig

but a lot might not 💔

[native sundial]

we dont cuz there's ppl that keep twisting their words and complaining,, tuff to manage this sorta bs without getting mixed up in the argument

[narrow cradle]

Pyseph seems to be pretty good at ignoring arguments. Last time I saw him talk was when he said we wouldn't get pity because it would "remove the grind". After this dogshit response he literally unfollowed the suggestion and ignored all messages

[native sundial]

LMAO

i mean they could do that 💔

but uh yeah, doesnt fix anything regarding the suggestion

that's why i was saying, 1 response is never sufficient

if they have to join suggestions theyre gonna have to be active, like with proper discussion

💀 and i think that'll take some time at least

we've all seen suggestion arguments go for hours

[narrow cradle]

Yea 1 response isnt enough when the response is the dumbest thing known to man

"Pity removes the grind"

[native sundial]

yeahh

LOL

i mean they have their vision behind saying what they did and they cant convince everyone about it in 1 response

[uneven phoenix]

Als the most “grindest” game in the atd genre and it has pity

[native sundial]

to convince the other, or to be convinced, they have to stick in the argument

[native sundial]

weekly updates 💔

it wld be horrid if it had no pity ong

[uneven phoenix]

Av is horrid without pity too

[native sundial]

true

but that's probably their thinking behind having no pity for now

they believe that the long upd times make having no pity reasonable,, ig ?

either ways i want a pity

stupid yamamoto

[uneven phoenix]

Idk why they believe that

[native sundial]

🤷‍♂️

i mean im js guessing

i could be entirely wrong

[uneven phoenix]

Their update times are all over the place

[native sundial]

nah nah u have it wrong vro

it's consistent-

-ly late by 2 days

always in the weekdays 😋

[uneven phoenix]

💔

Long update times for content that Als pumps out in a week

[dense lodge]

😂

[dense lodge]

People arguing with devs doesn’t mean devs should stay silent. That logic is like saying ‘some customers complain, so let’s ignore all of them.’ Nah. The solution isn’t to ghost the community, it’s to set clear boundaries. Respond, make your stance clear, and that’s it. Players will always have opinions, but that doesn’t mean you stop giving feedback altogether.

Also, devs responding isn’t about debating or pleasing everyone. It’s about transparency. Imagine a spotlight suggestion with 180+ upvotes getting hard-ignored in the stage notes, while the feature in question gets pushed even further back. No explanation, no acknowledgment, nothing. Now we just have to hope someone saw it? Nah, that’s not how trust works. And the idea that ‘it takes too long’ to write one message? Cmon. We’re not asking for daily essays. Even just a short note like ‘this is under review but we can’t give a timeline yet’ or ‘we’re focusing on other systems for now’ would go a long way. It’s better than radio silence while the game keeps losing players. Letting a suggestion hit spotlight, get massive support, and then acting like it never existed, that’s what causes the frustration, not the lack of a perfect reply.

[native sundial]

nono, 1 msg cant take long, that's not a problem

problem is what happens after that 1 msg is sent

cuz NO one is happy with it

they tried and they got backlash

and also pyseph made his 'stance clear' by saying 'pity gets rid of the grind'

[dense lodge]

So you’re telling me devs abandoned all communication just cuz one of them got ratio’d over a trash take like ‘pity removes grind’? That’s not backlash, that’s called feedback. If the stance is weak, people will call it out , that’s how suggestions work. You don’t get to drop a lazy excuse and then act shocked when people aren’t clapping.

[native sundial]

i gave you one example

im not saying it's the only one,
or that it's the sole reason 'devs stopped communicating'

please dont take my words so literally

i dont lurk that badly in suggestions

[native sundial]

and also yes, this exactly

their takes wont always be 100% correct
neither will they be 100% upto what people want
hell, it might not be what people want at all

that's why im saying, 1 response isnt solving anything
it's only going to make it worse

they need to get into the discussion

and that's gonna waste time

and

no one will ever be happy until
their suggestion is accepted

or maybe im wrong about that

but i just feel like, sometimes people just dont care what the counter arguments or opinions are

they just, want their suggestion to be added to the game because they believe it's good

they cant be convinced otherwise

[sterile dust]

why are we complaining about kaguya i don't understand

she looks sick

a lot of people know her, she's cool

[dense lodge]

Bro I get that one message won’t fix all the whining, but that’s no excuse for total silence. Ghosting the entire community because some people get salty? That’s weak. Devs aren’t toddlers who can’t handle feedback. they’re grown adults getting paid to run the game.

If people just want their way 24/7, that’s on them. But devs have a job to communicate, not disappear every time it gets a little spicy. Real transparency means saying why something isn’t happening, setting expectations, and owning the decision, not hiding behind ‘we’re too busy’ or ‘we don’t wanna argue.’

Leaving us in the dark just breeds more toxicity and rumors. It’s not ‘better to stay silent’, it’s lazy and disrespectful to the community that actually plays the game

[sterile dust]

if thats true then im concerned

in what way does it remove the grind

devs really are doing dumb stuff lately huh

not the first time im being confused by their takes or choices this month

[native sundial]

i mean i like this

hopefully they take the time out for it

[native sundial]

real

[native sundial]

🙏

[viscid ivy]

One of the worst Naruto villains

[native sundial]

that's why we chuck her in a useless .5 upd

🙏 get rid of her for lorotomo and the naruto glazers

[viscid ivy]

She better not be vanguard

[native sundial]

i js want my naruto vanguard/double evo in a .0 upd 😋

[viscid ivy]

I don’t like Naruto but madara vanguard would be sick

[native sundial]

she's most likely will be tho

[native sundial]

ong

madara is fire regardless

they gotta make him good but in the future

[viscid ivy]

I don’t understand why they would choose character nobody likes for vanguard

[native sundial]

🤷‍♂️

wait wait

watch kaguya get off-ed by madara in game

trust 🙏

give madara his retribution

[indigo ravine]

What is this?

[quick chasm]

i get what ur sayin but thats probably the reason they keep doin shit like quest units, ex stages and harder raids that have a higher chance, remember when av came out people whine complaining it was too easy, feels like we have gone 180 and now everythings too hard

[native sundial]

Lmao real

Quest units are good

i wont say anything about byekens quest tho

[quick chasm]

I agree at least its guaranteed but i hate bykens quest? Its abhorrent, i think sjw was a good guideline for a powerful unit, and gilga and aizen are good too

[native sundial]

Yurrr

[quick chasm]

I prefer units havibg a somewhat unique obtainment compared to just “OH MY GOD GUYS ANOTHER 2% FROM A 8 min stage”

[native sundial]

Until byeken, quests units were p cool

[native sundial]

Yeahh

[quick chasm]

Like why does a unit need to have a 50% drop to start quest, then need to use pvp which will NEVER be a guranteed win unless you have a gazillion monarchs and even then you can still lose, and then have to pray you either get carried or come accross 3 ppl as strong as you for the ex stage who WANT to grind 10 stages

[native sundial]

yeah i dont like the idea of 10 chaos kills

i dont think im ever getting byeken

cuz i ccant find people who wanna play

[quick chasm]

i aint got baiken and i aint getting cid either i hate his grind too

[native sundial]

fr 😭 but cid nuke is crazy
