THIS

Jason, it legitimately makes me sad to see you completely disregard the feedback of the many vet players with hundreds of hours of in-game experience who give you constructive feedback. People who are trying to HELP get this game closer to your vision. I stopped playing this game months ago due to how unplayable it was and have been extremely disheartened to see you twist players' words or latch onto one part of someone's feedback and ignore the rest of it, then take it out of context and run with that cherry-picked, incomplete thought.

I love this game. I truly do. I understand that this is very much a social experiment kind of game, hence your non-standard approach to just about everything. And it's created a beautiful work of art.

But as time has gone on, this art has become less and less functional as an actual game. And you have developed much more severe tunnel-vision in terms of listening to your players feedback. You have stated yourself that you spend a lot of time fixing things in the game... which means you don't spend that time actually PLAYING the game. There's only 24 hours in a day, after all. And yet you create massive overhauls to the game based on your own experiments and, as fug says, sticking your fingers in your ears blocking out what people say when they tell you that things are NOT working in a long-term, sustainable way.

You know what my favorite type of lives mine are (or, were)? Being an explorer to find resources for my village. This play-style is completely extinct now due to the family specialization, homeland, and mining updates. Ok, no big deal - play a different way, right? Second favorite type of life: building. But guess what - I can't do that efficiently now either because of the tool slot limitations. I know I am not alone in my frustration that you are railroading into one play-style, nor am I the first to bring it up.

Twisted has been one of the most positive supporters of your updates, regardless of how limiting and dysfunctional they are. The fact that even HE is getting fed up with this? Doesn't this even remotely give you any red flags?

But you know what makes me really sad? Knowing with almost absolute certainty that you'll read this and go "Oh. Just another Spoonwood. Just another complainer." and completely either ignore my frustrations OR take one thing out of context and completely shut me down. "Hi, mina. *Boom* This is why you are wrong." nail in coffin. Jason has spoken. There is no other perspective. This is the way. End of discussion.
