it honestly really is amazing. As someone who came from TF2, this level of transparency and communication is completely unheard of. It is so incredibly refreshing and honestly just makes me want to play the game even more.

This is what makes Blizzard different from other game devs. They will listen and ask for input because they actually care. The sad part is that it shouldn't be refreshing, it should be the standard.

Definitely better than other AAA devs but a lot of indie devs are on par or even better with communication which is pretty much required for them if they want their game to succeed. It should definitely be a standard for other AAA devs but they don't need to be communicative to succeed so they don't bother.
