I do understand those posts, though. There might be plenty of new players joining the game every day, but it takes so long and so much time (and or monetary) investment to catch up to the current content, that for players already there - all we see is people leaving, and our bubble of players decreasing.
It’s good to hear things are going well behind the scenes - it’s always been a great game at it’s core and I look forward to it continuing for a long time yet!

oh and let’s not forget the masterpiece they have had in design for more than 1 year where are they all?
Or Lightning R.O.B. 
I don’t even know what it looks like even though we have its avatar
