Answers:
- I like the game in its current state, I dont have any problem with it.
I am loyal player of Town of Salem, even if I have a problem with the game.I am taking the B out, because it doesnt actually say anything about the "problems" of the game. People chose mostly B, which doesnt say anything about what they think is wrong with the game.- I dislike the state of ingame community (the players I meet in-game)
- I dislike the state of game mechanics (balance of game, broken roles, bugs, etc.)
- I dislike the approach of BMG (updates taking long, are dissapointing, community ideas ignored, etc)
To explain the Poll question better:
Imagine there are two Town of Salems - the current one, and a copycat which has less toxic community, better balanced roles, and updates that come out frequently, add new content into the game, using community ideas and such. Would you continue to play original Town of Salem, with the current community etc, or would you transfer over to the copycat, because it has better prospects for the future?
Purpose behind this is to find out what irritates people the most about the current state of the game.
I figured this topic is important to talk about, after having a brief chat with someone on Twitter yesterday. They said something that inspired me to make this thread.
Assume this other "game" is identical to Town of Salem in everything, but smaller in terms of community, and all the described issues are less frequent. This is a fictional scenario. For better example, compare the current game state with the early Beta state of the game (aka right after second Kickstarter).
The main purpose of this thread is the poll - to get feedback on what keeps people around, whether anything, and what they dislike, potentionally like on this game altogether (counting together the current game state, game mechanics, in-game community, and community management).That said, if you have something additional to add to your vote in the poll, feel free to include it. This is a conclusion of many sensitive topics that were the part of this game for a while, but noone really put them all together.
Please, include what you voted for in the poll, in your additional argument.
The topics to follow especially:
- Current state of ingame community
- Current state of game balance & mechanics
- Attitude of development team towards the game/community
- Your opinion on the future of the game.
