Quick answer: Players don't know they can file bug reports. A 'Help' menu link to bug reporting raises awareness; report count grows.

Visibility of the reporting feature drives reporting volume. Make the path obvious.

Help menu link

'Report a Bug' button in main Help menu. Discoverable.

Onboarding mention

First-launch tutorial mentions the feature. Players know it exists.

In-game shortcut visible

F2 keybind shown in keybind menu. Players who explore find it.

Pause menu surfaces
