Probably one of the least constructive posts I’ve seen on this subreddit. You don’t have to pay a game developer to make demands about improving the game, when your participation in the game is their very asset.

Indeed, while a lot of their tangible income sources are through our cosmetic purchases, don’t forget that it’s through our playing and participation that adds value to the game and reputation of the company.

Should they decide to release a subscription-based game or one with a one-time price tag, consumers’ willingness to pay would be influenced by the traffic we generate now.

Of course they’re not obligated to give into any of the playerbase’s demands. It’s just that there’d be less people playing, which hurts the company’s marketability. So while we may not be paying, it doesn’t mean we’re not in a position to pressure them into improving the game.
