I don't believe the same programmers are working on the game anymore, because there's multiple details and incidents that seem... unusual, compared to how the game's system was set up previously.

1) how often they keep pushing back updates. Now, I'm not a programmer, but it used to be that updates were released at least on the maintenance they were set, even if the maint was extended. However, the week of the Balance event saw TWO maintenances. The "Dispatch shop" was put in patch notes then changed, the "Dragon Ownership" update was hastily pushed back, and the new "Dragem Bulletin Board" was pushed back.

2) copying regular hatches and hatchlings for the Balance event forms. This means that 100% cosmic album and dragon book for these species will be impossible, because no one will freeze, display, or sell regular-looking hatch/lings.

I'm not saying they had to recolor them. But, they had multiple options to prevent this problem that they've used in the past; the god adventure/collab box special bred forms, where only the adult form is different. OR the xmas/sigs system, where they hide whatever they don't want to count.

3) Plutino in the Dream World book and album.

Other than Cupi Friend, an early oddity, species listed in the area books are available f2p through main gameplay WITHOUT trading. The Special Book is where p2w, event, limited-time, and other miscellaneous dragons go. Plutino's book location breaks this rule, unless they plan to add it to main gameplay and upset everyone by sharply decreasing its "value".

4) the last two English notices by Highbrow were never posted in the official Discord. I don't even know what to say.

5) setting Dumbo Blue and God?'s breeding for ONE DAY. Previous event "breeding reruns" have always been a minimum of 1 week, usually 2 weeks to correspond with events and update weeks.

6) Patch note inconsistency. They keep adding edits to their patch notes and can't even seem to keep the English terms consistent with what's in-game, meaning we have to guess what they mean. Sneak Peek Diamonds were called Trial Diamonds, the "Monthly" Pick-me-up bundle is weekly, and the event packages they planned and removed called the regular drinks Dragems.

Honestly there's more, like them accidentally replacing default Aurelia's image with the new form, somehow letting Jet Dragons grow into actual event forms, and inputting Plutino with a base stat of 90 instead of 0. The development seems like such a mess…
