I enjoyed the rate of updates. But I think we didn't get too much this year because they're prob working very hard on a larger release.

It's been like this for a while. Part of the devs probably work on something very big, while other groups work on small things that can be released little by little.

I imagine that the biggest (and best) thing they did this year was the Giant Depth Worm and Crab King reworks (iirc they were from 2024). We see a pattern of Bosses getting all shine and glow while other main ideas like the release of the Lunar Island years ago or the Archive's Sealed Portal thing (Which we still have NO IDEA WHAT IT IS) will be done once every 2 or 3 years. So my prediction for 2024 is a new place in the caves (that's probably why they fixed void walking) and a new horde type invasion after rifts are open in the surface with zombified mobs.

I don't know about the passion part but at the end of the day they get paid a salary by tencent to continue working on DST.

DST is klei's biggest cash cow by far and it would be foolish not to keep the game relevant.

The rate of updates was pretty good imo, since the updates take longer you can appreciate more the new things that get added. And the ocean update is probably the one I like the most because of the treasure hunt, ancient boat, ck rework and bumpers, and tree gems.

But the previous update (Depths of Duplicity) was kind of bad. I was expecting a cave update with biome tweaks mostly (like please Klei, add some ice on caves...), and maybe some cool things outside rifts, not just a rift update. Or at the very least some cool new rift boss on cave. And at first I thought that Great Depths Worm wasn't that bad, but after facing him a couple times ( and once the ******* worm ate half my inventory right after I died INCLUDING A SPARK ARK)...I think the GDW is a failed addition, it could have been such a cool new boss with an unique drop, but rather it became this thing that is hard to kill, gives nothing special as a reward, and only makes cave-basing in multiplayer more scary.

The rate is fine, the quality seems to have gone down which is odd. (I blame skill trees QQ)

They keep adding clunky messy features, like the sawhorse obtain method, most skilltrees, and riff stuff. (Those mask guys and the way you get mimic hearts are so messy)
