I am once again suggesting to make a new file
don’t like your magic? want to have an easy way to change it? make a new file. don’t have the robux for starter pack or the new files? make a new account.
and for those that DO have the robux, which is likely everyone here, just buy starter pack over magic reset once it comes out. its way cheaper, and all you realistically have to do is wait 3 hours until you can trade, which sounds better than quadruple the price for a magic you might not even like, or (I know that people have been exaggerating these numbers) 4-10 hours in the dark sea like you guys have claimed.
I think that vetex is trying to capitalize on people’s laziness (don’t get me wrong, I’m lazy too), which is smart for him but annoying for the community. still a great developer, though
Not really, that’s just how fighting styles are, you’ll do that naturally through playing the game. Although, I do know this, the day we are meant to explore the Far Reaches comes; none of the arguments made today will matter all that much. Why? Because people aren’t going to be stuck at level 120, 140, etc for months at a time; so people aren’t going to be tired of their magic for months at a time. I personally view the whole magic reset as a lost/ancient magic thing given how the mechanic works (it’s planned to basically be mutations). Game’s still not even fully released, I don’t think this will be changed for full release either, but I do think it’ll get better when we get to or are nearing Vimir sea via faster ships and better ship parts. We don’t even have legendary ships to see what kind of equipment they can give us to make the Dark Sea easier to traverse.
It’ll be hours to retrain a fighting style anyways, but it’ll also be hours to change your magic by that point. The biggest issue is the island size, but they’ve implemented ways of finding them easier. I won’t address the rest of what you said since I wasn’t replying to you when I typed that.
See the thing is, it’s not about being lazy, it’s about losing a relic, to me it’s a relic, of a now forgotten past (i may be try harding this but i’m serious), this file was from when i played World of Magic.
Yeah but it’s a personal thing, that file is the only one i care about, the others will be deleted if i have to, for example i have one to be deleted i just need to transfer stuff since it’s a placeholder for oracle
It’s “unfair” because you aren’t meant to do that now, it’s in the Far Reaches. Assuming we were in Vimir Sea right now, with new ships and better ship parts, this wouldn’t be as big of an issue. Magic resets always struck me as something you do later on when lost magics release.
It’s not, you have the option now. You can call it shitty but later on you aren’t going to be stuck waiting months at a time with your same magic before you can explore the Far Reaches in the future. This as an issue exclusive to the game as it is now, and it’s up to Vetex if he wants to make it easier for now.
If you care that much for your file then go ahead, go for the hecate essence. I don’t really care that much for mine, I’ll wipe mine if I don’t like the build and make a new one. I just don’t have the same attachment other people have to save files that can be replaced. I’ll even do it over something like a name change.
You suggested that narrative and game design are separate, when in reality the narrative of a game is part of game design. You’re trying to make a building without the concrete, and magic reset being removed won’t ruin your gameplay. It’s just the few who’re bored of their magic that want to change it, or they hate their magic and failed to realize they hated it hours into playing.
Magic reset is like having a fancy sink. It’s a good QoL, but the building’s not gonna collapse without it.
and yet zerkers and warriors can change their stuff with ease right now without spending the time to go to the far reaches and keep gambling with a 1/12 odd across islands the size of sameria. I genuinely don’t see how vimir content would make this any less tedious
the problem still exists, it just gives you two shitty choices instead of one. You can now either engage in the cancerous hunt for hecate essence or delete your entire file
refer to my first paragraph of this post
I want to go for hecate on one of my files but im not because of how garbage it is to find it right now
i realize im wrong in this section, but the narrative still shouldn’t come at the cost of conveniece and joy. A game’s lore could be absolutely amazing but if it starts negatively affecting the fun of the game then it should be put aside
yes because i go back from 2 shitty option to 1 shitty option, the gameplay was already ruined for the plenty of people who wanted to change their magic
Not having a good magic reset is like a hotel giving 1/3 of their guests the same exact meal for breakfast lunch and dinner every day because they picked it when they first entered. Meanwhile the rest of the guests are free to chose whatever meal they want
I said he’s a great dev because he made the game that you are arguing over right now. and I’m fairly sure he wasn’t even leading the work on yuletide. (and yuletide was STILL pretty popular)
also almost 1k concurrent daily players + Patreon says otherwise to him going “broke”
he will in time. does not add any meaningful pve content, and openly denounces and ignores pvp, doing bare minimum balancing every 5 months. Just no reason to play
Let’s agree to disagree, I don’t feel like discussing hecate essence forever. I will respond to this though:
I would literally not care if the food was good. If it was terrible, I’d just go eat something else (use another class/build). I’ve eaten the same thing back to back before. I personally believe the main selling point of magic will come with the toppings (spells), but that remains to be seen with only 5 rare spells so far.
