Long rant incoming </3 ...
Note : This rant is not meant to take sides I am merely ranting about how this fandom has a tendency of giving Qwel bad gameplay decisions in regards of her game and how this fandom fight over the LITTLEST of things!!
This might be my last rant as of now before I take a large break from Dandy's World as I have school and it is NOT healthy to be playing a game that brings nothing to the table.
As stated I will talk about my personal experience with this community and yes, I am aware that every fandom has a toxic side but atleast they help their game/show/content they consume improve.
What I noticed is how they over-hyper or glaze something not game changing like "Toon of the week" or "Swimmy Barnaby" though yes, Qwel said most things can not be shown in the Devlog but most game changing things that she releases sound neat on paper but in execution its ASS!! Like for almost 2 YEARS... 2 FUCKING YEARS!! Have we been waiting for something good yet its still stale but oh this community being the community would start glazing Qwel's decisions as if she reinvented the wheel??? > "We just have be a bit more patient." OH?? Yeah, waited 2 years just try and get a better gameplay. WHATS ANOTHER 8 MONTHS?? > "You are just being ungrateful." What's wrong with simple criticism? QWEL EVEN STATED THAT SHE IS LISTENING TO OUR CONCERNS. like? We never EVER sweared at her calling her a bitch like most people do and yet we are called UNGRATEFUL for it? > "You don't deserve the game" Like ... okay? Not like its a human being but okay?
See these dimwitted comments are what PISSES ME OFF!! Some posts by most people in this community are also DIMWITTED EXCUSES THAT > " Its in ALPHA!" > "Qwel is trying her best!" > "You're just a little whiny BICTH!!" Like let me tell you how much I HATE THESE EMPTY EXCUSES!! They do not have much substance or reasoning to comment like they just COMMENT TO COMMENT and I would reason if there was a TRUE REASON TO SAY THAT but no ... NO NO NO NO!!! We just have these comments without any true substance or REASONING TO IT.
My analysis also shows that the game ONLY gets 100k + players during major events like Seasonal events or new content that will be hyped for like 3 - 7 days before it dies down again. Tell me why do people want a Summer event? First OF ALL : We have to grind for ! +30 skins that is either a reskin of an old one or not worth its price tag because it was promised to have particle effects and yet its barley noticable. Secondly : You will get the same thing over ... and over AND OVER!! 4 new toons that over class or have the same ability just that it is WAY more valuable then the original toon that had it so that means they won't be used as much (unless you are starter). 4 new Twisteds that are unique in a way but are locked away behind a seasonal border. 3 new trinkets (Like the common trinket is just a scanner so it does not count anyways) that are BUNS and serve NO purpose of you GRINDING for days upon weeks to get it but I guess you are doing it for the design of the characters ... Like just look at the last event ... yeah that is what you are going to expect for Summer just reproposed with a summer theme. Like please focus on the games flaws before asking for another grind filled event.
Okay "Golden Skins" like on paper it was fine IN EXECUTION HOW EVER? Like not to be mean but its ASS. It is literally just mastery quest 2.0 but instead you have an RNG-Based issue like Rare quests where you have to encounter " Encounter Twisted meng meng X amount of time as Meng meng" because really These quests could be more fun instead of it being mastery quest like for example Eggson could have to do an egg hunt for eggs around the map as an example but nope thats to much for her team IS IT??? my god ...
If the game leaves Alpha please let it be Beta because why is NO ONE SCARED. THAT SHE MIGHT BE RUSHING IT especially since 25% of toons are used more powerful and more over powered 12% of trinkets are meta (A.KA used more frequently) Gameplay loop is Ass like EXTREMELY long, repetitive and FUCKING BOOORING like omg its SO FUCKING BOOORING!!! But still no one cares? Because its what? Qwel's decision? Yes .. I heard myself when typing that but still??? Why are you guys not concerned about it? Because if its in full release that means that they have completely ignored our complaints because of why ???
THIS FUCKING FANDOM!!!!
You people are like parasites to Qwel slowly killing her game and also whining about the gameplay being to hard even though ... having a bit of a challenge won't kill you ! Like? Have you forgotten that its a SURVIVAL HORROR GAME??
Some of you people need a back bone because get serious you can not expect Qwel to keep it easy forever right? Like ...
I also see most of your points are valid but no seriously what are we doing?? Like what exactly? Please try to have a brain and LISTEN instead of shrugging off and protect Qwel from the truth. Like some of you guys would act as if, If Qwel saw the criticism she would just delete the game as a whole???
If I were compare Dandy's World to Dolly's factory. And Dandy's World were to win the competition then you guys (majority) would be grateful and be proud of the vote ... BUT if I were to make Dolly's factory win? ... oh people I feel as if most you peole would upright think of the MOST DUMBEST and PREDICTABLE comment because again not like I am forcing it on you but golly you guys act like you being murdered by someone.
I have seen that now people in this fandom are critical of the games direction but Qwel keeps ignoring these issues because of why? The fandom and how she shrugs it off because she knows that no one in the discord CARES ABOUT NOTHING MORE BUT SKINS!!
strangely however people are still delusional and they make reddit post claiming that "We asked for Toon of the Week" or "Didn't you guys want golden skins??" Like you are pointing out THE EXACT ISSUE OF WHAT PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT!!???
People in the game are also WORSE! Like everyday I've encountered idoits dying on Floor 1, Griefing eachother instead of playing, Not being a team player and just steal whatever they see. And yes, (I heard this hot-take from Acidrop on YouTube which they have pointed this out with reason so well) This is a team work game so obviously there is such as stealing items and machines because I had instances where someone would be at 1 heart that being our distractor and this selfish player would steal the band or medkit without atleast calling it for the injured one to get it. This is NOT a PVP game this is a team work game so obviously you have to help those in need of assistance instead of you treating it as if you are in a solo.
I also just love how Criticism = Hate in this fandom and their only reasoning is to play alternatives which is fine ... BUT Dandy's World released way before Dolly's factory and yet Dolly's factory is way more efficient in gameplay and balancing issues of the actual game then focusing on skins. Its fine as a developer to focus on 1 thing BUT as an Alpha game skins and events shouldn't be the main focus as you might ground the games foundation FIRST then focus on something that could be a thing later on but nope ... Criticism = Hate ...
When will this game get good? Oh, yeah WHEN IT ONLY RECEIVES 500 - 1K active players thats when the game will start adding gameplay updates!!!
I also have mentioned that this is AN ALPHA VERSION stop asking for skins and grow a back bone its not the end of the world if Qwel decides to make the game more challenging ...
I will get a break to cooldown for a moment maybe return once the game has picked up on gameplay but yeah, Im done with being patient for 2 FUCKING YEARS!!! Sigh I do hope you understand my point in my posts as I tried as hard as I can to explain so yeah.
Bye Bye pookies, Hope you have an amazing day ... I guess ...
