The game, and the forum especially, feels abandoned by the Devs, due to the complete lack of communication for months at a time.
Two things could greatly improve the situation:
- Roadmap:
A simple timeline, showing what's being developed and what is planned for the future. Doesn't even need to have actual dates on it, just knowing what's the priority and what's further down the pipeline.
- Status Updates
A simple monthly post on the forum, updating us on the development status or any other relevant news.
It doesn't need to be detailed, nor to become a Q&A platform. Just knowing what you're working on is enough. It takes like 10 minutes to write something like that once a month. Is a new small patch being developed? Is something bigger being worked on? And so on...
One more things I'd like to add, which would easily fit in the status update post, is a request to have some information about world resets. As someone who really enjoys early world, I'd like to be able to plan my work and travelling in such a way that allows me more free time when a new world hits. So it would be very nice if in the monthly update we could have a simple like saying if a world reset is being considered within the next couple of months, or not.
I hope the Devs will consider being more transparent with us and implementing something as suggested.
Thanks
