I must say, after Seatin (and most of the community after the initial Act 7 beta) showed a clear disinterest in playing the game a few months ago, Kabam has truly strove to make this game better.

Variant 5
Nerfing of Act 6
Better rewards in side events/Cavalier EQ
Just a few of the concerted efforts by developers that show they’ve finally listened to what we’ve been saying.
That being said, are you all the way back on board or are you still mistrusting?

To be clear, this is a business. They provide a product; we provide revenue in exchange for access to that product (or at least most of us do). The moment they stop providing a product we are interested in to the point we are willing to spend money, they don’t have jobs.
I’m glad things have been better lately, and hope the trend continues.
If you want to see the future, look at my recent post about how long people have been playing. Most people have been here 3-5 years. That means new players are joining/sticking at an incredibly low rate.
As the old guard falls off, it spells death for the game. The changes are largely catered to appeasing the long held qualms of that player base. Every time there is a regression on Kabam’s part, it chips away at that demographic ever so slightly.
I’m not saying I’m not happy with the game now. I am at least aware of how this all works, and Kabam keeping a finger on the pulse of players’ quality of life of paramount to the longevity of the game.
That’s the hurdle new players have to jump. All the 3-5 year people have years of experience gradually growing into mastering new mechanics, and learning new champs. New players have to learn all that stuff at once, and see other people making it look so easy. I would personally just feel like it was too much needed for something that’s supposed to be fun.
It’s too much for new players. People compare themselves to others. If Kabam expedites their progression, the old players will be pissed. If Kabam keeps progression slow, then people will be discouraged. I’m sympathetic to the balance that has to be considered.
A bad guy cannot suddenly change to an angel, right? 😁
