CKIII is expecting huge new expansion in summer/autumn. And yesterday (I believe?) there was Dev Diary on the progress.
Aside from dev diary itself, (which almost half of which had game director openly acknowledging and discussing players feedback on previous update/dlc) the game director actively engaged users on forum and went back and forth on what should or shouldn't be in new dlc and what is possible, what are his thoughts and what have developers said and so on...
And of course every game company works differently and God only knows what company can afford what level of transparency for plethora amount of reasons outside their control.
But it was so nice to witness it for a change. I am not too into games besides this two so I don't know how common or rare it is, but I bet it would definitely help with expectations and frustrations in this community if we had a percent of similar communication.
Also don't take this for bootlicking Paradox, however it may sound
I'm very uninvolved with CKIII community (so much so that some DLC took me by surprise) but it was definitely a breath of fresh air.
