To me, CCP Shanghai obviously have a planned design for Project Nova they are rolling with as they have not provided any info since last April for anyone to respond to. Furthermore, Project Nova could have drastically changed from what we've seen at Fanfest 2016 so why bother with any speculation at all at this point? I completely agree. I think it is fair however to leave feedback in the context of Dust, such as "Hey, we really liked this part" or "We actually didnt like this part, please dont do it again." But in terms of meaningful feedback that can be given for a game you know nothing about? It's sparse. So sparse that having a specific section for it doesn't even make sense.
To both of these thoughts, there is something to be said about feeling part of something. Especially at both the end and start of that something. Births are wondrous and emotional; deaths are as emotionally intense. We are here having shared in both ends with DUST and now NOVA (assuming). I would imagine those of us that are still lingering are here either grieving for a loss or optimistically hopeful for this new creation and the future in front of it/us. Most of us are probably falling in between those two extremes with a bit of both on our backs.
It feels good to reminisce and to hope. Feedback, though it may be an empty belief, is still a belief in being part of something. Without real communication, that's all there may be for some. And while it may be a bitter opinion, it's not unreasonable to assume that may be all that there ever is.
Also, as to having a dedicated forum I kinda feel that would be silly in this context. Ideally, that would be a declaration by CCP to say that, "hey! here is a forum of communication---that we will take part in! rejoice!!!" But that's not going to happen. That would go a long way to inspire hope in those of us that are on the verge of giving up, though, if nothing else.
For us, either keep the fantasy alive and well and continue posting bittersweet memories and suggestions until that fantasy exists, or don't and let go and let CCP continue to do as it does. Regardless, it still will or will not happen no matter what we do here. Choose your sides! I'm pretty good with a sword...
Please excuse my rambly wambly post. It's been a while.
