    That usage data is neat! Also really fucking creepy. I hate that we’ve normalized just whole-hog spying on people.

      I mean, from a game improvement standpoint you’d want them to have analytics. Seeing how other people use your game doesn’t seem the most unreasonable thing ever to me.

          they can have a death map showing where players die the most for example … Something difficult to acquire via a survey

      It’s opt-in if i remember well and you can avoid sharing it with 1 click in the options.

      For the devs, that help them a lot to tune the difficulty of the game in some sectors and find what to improve… For once it’s not to sell you something, just to improve our experience.
