The PL Community as a Whole Today

[XghostzX]

Very nice thread, we love to communicate when opinions are presented like this. A couple of things to consider:

We built PL, it has our hearts and souls in it. Many of the NPCs are named after our family (my kids are in there too). We love this game as much, if not more than you do. It is, quite literally, our baby.

When you generalize your discontent by saying: "Everyone feel this way" it loses some impact. We get that you may feel this way, and that several people may feel this way, but there is a concept known as the "vocal minority". We hear and respect you, but you don't speak for everyone.

When you demand answers, and get an answer that you don't like, please don't be angry at us for our honesty. I told you there is no cap on PL's horizon because I don't want to lead you on. This is not disrespectful towards you. This is not a unique situation for Spacetime. Every game has its fans, and those fans want THEIR games to be expanded. But we have 10x the number of players in AL that we do in PL. And we hope to have more in our Battle games.

When you threaten to leave if we don't do something, or if we announce a new game, your feedback loses impact as well. We are a company trying to survive in an extremely unstable and challenging environment. We will continue to announce new games. We will also look for ways to continue to support the games we have out now.

All companies need to grow to survive, especially in Mobile. If we did NOT take the path we are on, than you would not have ANY of these games to play, because we would surely be out of business.

So we will continue to run these games that we all love so much, and we will continue to try and fix things you don't like and expand on the things that you do. And we will continue to bring you new things so that we can continue running the older things.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best,

Thank you for the response JustG, it's really appreciated.

You caught me on where I said "everyone feels this way" - I agree with your statement. It was my intention to cover a vast majority of players, obviously not every individual being here. But to reassure the idea, I do speak for a large majority of players. I know I do. I've never been part of a game where players actually PM in game asking for when new updates come will happen because they have a sense of trust in me - they have this sense of trust simply because STS has built and structured such an astounding community. We are very grateful for it.

We will never be mad you for honesty. Don't take it personally, JustG. Humans can't help what they feel, and "most" of our feelings side toward the fact that we've been loyal and nothing has been done to the game. We can't control our feelings entirely, but we can do our best to adjust. However, the fact that you responded to this thread really means alot to myself, and the community. I think this is the kind of thing we need more - PL used to have really close connections with the company. Heck, I remember when Mitch (AbsolutePally) had lunch with Sam to talk about PvP related things! That's incredible, and shows how much us players cared, as much as you guys did.

Again, "most" players feel like this because we're heading on to an entire year without updates. At the beginning, you guys did promise us PvP updates and new content - obviously that was never granted. I suppose the fact of the matter is that you guys decided to tell us very late that changes would not be made; as if we were some sort of guests on a waiting list that seemed to never end, and we've finally been told the negative news. The game was left with many bugs and issues and many suggestions that players wished to fix/implement. But if STS is TRULY sincere about the community, then I honestly believe a bigger approach to connecting with your community needs to be taken.

Thank you for the response once again. We appreciate it.
