Infold still won't address the real issues, but there's nothing else like Nikki out there...

Infinity Nikki’s new update is out, and while Infold have fixed most of the technical issues introduced in version 1.5, they remain silent on the more important complaints that many players really cared about.
They even agreed to a brief interview with Pocket Tactics which was absolutely surreal.
While it’s possible they’re working on a change of direction and are just waiting until they have everything in place before they share anything — and there have been one or two hints that this might actually be the case — many people who were angry at Infold’s decisions are giving up, and leaving the game behind.
Throughout this whole fiasco, many from outside the community could not understand why people struggled to let go in the first place.
Since I never got to make that video sharing my thoughts about the game before it all exploded, let’s talk about why I loved it, briefly recap how they broke it in 1.5 and what they’re adding in 1.6, take a look at that super weird interview, and then see why the alternatives people keep suggesting just do not hit the spot.
