No it's not, the community is just paying for it collectively! The players deserve a game that's better because they're still paying for it as a group instead of as individuals! Stop individualising yourselves so much that you can't even critique a product anymore!

It's driving me mad. Especially if I'm a player who has literally paid something into the game. The response then is "you chose to do that". Yeah and? I am still a paying player who is responsible for this game continuing to exist!

These communities would have a stronger voice if they realised they all had the same interests - the game being better. And that they're all contributing something to the game as part of the community, whether it's contributing as just another totally player able to be matched with, a member of online discourse, content creator or paying player. It's all the same interests. Teaching these people to recognise their interests as one playerbase would teach them the same skill needed to recognise their class interests in the outside world. They individualise themselves to their own detriment.
