It seems like nobody is listening, acting or making suggestions on improvements... because that's the way it is.
This link begs to disagree violently.
http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?board=5.0I don't think anyone is arguing that we cannot suggest improvements to the game.
I DO think that the title of this post, "This sucks..." and the general attitude that "Not everything is finished so this game is getting worse by the day", when a quick glance through the intended fixed and additions to the game proves that the developer knows of the issue and is planning on doing something about it, and has, since the beginning, is just silly.
"It is an alpha release" is not an excuse, it is an explanation. IE, "These things are being worked on, thank you for your input, no need for the hate, just be patient".
That's not "God Said So" at all. That's "It's being worked on, but programming and development take TIME."
The Suggestions forum is there for a reason, and it sees pretty constant use. SAying that nobody wants to suggest improvements is either a statement of willful ignorance (the forum is not hidden) or a bald faced lie (because look, the forum's right there, and lots of people ARE suggesting improvements).
