I certainly have not bothered to load up the game since the new update. I didn't see anything in that update that makes me think that the game has been improved enough to make it a lot more fun than it was.
I do buy into the vision of what the devs wanted to make, which is why I also agree with OPs position that many decisions seem to be 'crowdsourced' rather than based on a strong core design team determined to create an amazing product. So when people talk about 'the biggest and best patch yet!!!' I stare into space, because clearly the big problems with the game have not been solved, and are not going to be solved in the near future. That is the most concerning part.
I want them to get it right, and I do think it is possible to make ages work. Them spending time finding ways to give players the option of turning stuff off and on again doesn't fill me with hope, it's just pure pandering to the audience.
