EXCITED. Even Update 3 was completely fun and enjoyable to play. I've been putting off playing again because there were so many breaking changes in the later updates.

Honestly, as long as they attribute the text to "ChatGPT" or similar, that'd be fine with me. I may or may not read it, but at least be transparent. And at least please deal with the repercussions of firing your staff for the hype.
