Most of the games I've played over the past 5 years have primarily been older games I've been cycling through, mostly because they're what I enjoy (e.g. rn I'm replaying through the mario galaxy games). My problem doesn't lie with the current state of games, every game has hiccups, drama, etc. It's a natural part of development and that's fine. What's not fine is encouraging your community to fracture even more and actively derailing development by fostering online relationships with strangers 99.7% of the time you'll never meet in your entire life.
This takes a lot of strength to admit, but, I've played Roblox for half of my life. So many niche games go to shit over there because the dev's "MUST" have a discord. They simply "MUST". There is no alternative/other way to grow a community according to them. And every time that happens, development otherwise derails completely. I do not want the same to occur to this one because... WE just have to have a discord, OK! This tangent relates because the bar for creation on roblox is low, similar to indie games. (Tho I'm not implying that VoTV is a low quality product- Far from that, but the bar being so low means that whoever owns it is waaay more likely to be mentally unstable compared to "normal" games, speaking from experience)
I've stated this in a different reply, and in foresight could've added it to the original, but the comment is not targeted at the devs as people. It's at their continued usage of discord despite the companies/communities shady behavior. Ditch it completely, or search for alternatives and you'll live a better life, as simple as that.
(Also my writing style is bad because I actively re-read and change whatever sentence I'm writing like halfway through writing it. I've always been shit at english and that's not changing lol. I'm trying to stop engaging with social media tho because it just ends up biting me in the ass.)
