I think you’re just saying this to troll since I’ve corrected you on it before.

I do like the idea behind FB, but didn’t advocate for it and the idea is ruined by lack of AA for months on launch and a year of no expansion progression. The core ideas of being encouraged/forced to do things while under leveled and being encouraged to level in non-meta zones are both great.

DPG has a tendency to combine a bunch of ideas, and then when a server fails or succeeds they can’t pin point which of the ten custom ideas caused it.I think TLP players have a low tolerance for custom additions in general. You’re better off having one or at most two non standard things introduced per server.

Some of the devs did ask a few players for input for the 2026 (That’s next year Twizle). I know Mabbu, Frank and I were asked, there are probably others as well. This was my response:

Then we talked for a while about exactly how to nerf AE PL, how to add harder/hardcore elements to a server that players could opt into for cool rewards, and adding an official Solo Self Found and Permadeath mode that could be added to any server for players to opt into.
My response would have been a little different.

"So there was this server called Hero's Journey........."

you "corrected" me and also said you wanted it in the same post. Most people think you did advocate for it but there you go, i was just saying Devs often go for what the community leaders want / ask for and now you have confirmed that we can blame you next year when they fuck it up again.

I do think all the ideas you have given are good ideas though, I think tlps should be released with TSS xp rates, i dont get why were forced to grind for 3x longer than normal

Restoring soloing viability would really improve things quite a lot. A ton of boxing bs is because groups are the only way to go now.
