Thanks Nate and everyone else, for the feedback.
Nate, if you don't have the resources to make frequent trend analysis, checking in-game issues, etc. - which you apparently don't as you are working alone - you can ask the community for assistance wherever possible. I've no doubt that many people here, including myself, will be happy to help. Of course I'm not talking about giving access to "classified" game data to someone who plays PoW but about using the tools which are already at everyone's disposal to provide feedback which can later be used to improve the game. This is already done in a sense but in a chaotic and unstructured manner, by everyone providing some opinion once in a while - if you think it's possible, you can organize the crew, give tasks and so on, then we'll do the job for you to the best of our abilities. I suppose you understand that threads like this exist because the game is actually very good and I (and other people) want to keep playing, not to spew random hate toward the not-so-flawless aspects of PoW.
I can say much more about Blood Gods and the difference between what it should be and what it is but that's pointless at the moment. Please consider the suggestion above. There should (and normally there is) a way to make a product likeable to nearly everybody, with the right approach.
