I'd be okay with the lack of direct communication if we actually saw them "communicate" by making needed changes instead of changing things nobody asked for or changing things for the worse. Unfortunately recently their lack of communication(the Q/As are a PR stunt, very little if any actual new information came from those) hasn't been because they've been making any visible changes to the issues they've gotten feedback on for months(in some cases years), and the way some of the devs(Celestalon especially) has responded when faced with criticism has honestly been disgusting. He went to the Feral discord and pretty much said all the feedback from the past 6+ YEARS about lack of AoE and priority target burst(the 2 most important kinds of damage in raids and even 5mans) isn't true and it's only a tuning issue.
So yeah, they've been doing a pretty good job at making people like me lose faith in their ability to make good changes consistently.
