Hello there,
show me when you were removed from Discord for an actual "constructive criticism", because actual comments and conversation is done and users are not kicked. Making a joke that has been heard about a million times and trying to be funny by making snarky remarks about social media posts is not "mentioning there is low effort in communication".
To the point of how difficult it will be to have a more open conversation in the future, this was already advised it would be handled better for the next project. There is no "hiding progress, Kal shows teasers every now and then and the teasers are also post here, again, communication can and will be handled better BUT if you see a teaser of a minigame, reworks, and characters you should be able to conclude thats been worked on... but I guess is easier to say nothing has been said and is just ego.
