He's drawing a comparison to GK and Neopets. The fundamental flaw in that comparison is that it includes any game with an avatar (i.e., WoW, LoL, etc). I think the criticism he's trying to draw upon at the base of his complaint is that GK is not engaging.

That's a fairly superficial complaint - often something which engages one small group does not engage a larger group. Also, it truly takes talent to create engaging content; that is the drive of every developer or individual that pushes themselves to become a manager.

There is no magical "engagement" wand which can be waved. We could all sit here and spew suggestions. The age old difference between those who make suggestions and those who make content is that one of them is actually doing something and it doesn't happen as quickly as a suggestion.

Nico recently posted a roadmap which address some core problems new players face. I said previously that new players are my focus. It shouldn't be a surprise if I support a list of update like Nicos - updates which are not just suggestions, they are in development.
