Because they are.
I try to blame the year we live in though.
Everyone is always worried about placating others in 2022 instead of actually doing their job.
So all the players of the game bring that same mentality to the game. They want it made exactly how they like, without any consideration for the fact that it is supposed to offer things like challenge, time sink, and require planning and consideration.
The big issue with the game though is once you give these type of players an inch, they demand a mile.
No coming back from this now, which is a shame.
I just hope it works out. Because everyone keeps saying "look at all the subs lost" yet they are basically just letting the community make the video game right now, and people still aren't satisfied.
I think it was better when the developers made the game, and we played it. At least it was more coherent. No wild changes every few months.
