Team,
I would like to put in a request for some sort of enhancement to the Linkshell system.
As someone who helps run a decent size linkshell on Asura I can tell you the existing system does not have many advantages outside being proud to wear your respective linkshell pearl. In the past the linkshell served as a means to mainly communicate. With technology where it is this is no longer the case. Discord and other platforms serve as a more effective way to experience the game in a group.
I feel as we get more and more content that requires group play we have not received any update to the system in which promotes long term collaboration amongst players. To be honest this has been true throughout the existence of the game itself.
While I'm not exactly sure what features or what limitations there; here are a few ideas
- Roles
- Perk system (Potentially utilizing the RoE system?) that unlock perks similar to the gifts from Rhapsodies
- Better system of advertising linkshell in game
I personally see a lot of complaints that the game just feels lonely now. I truly believe if there was a re-investment into the systems that actually build communities it would inspire more people to go out and create organized linkshells. This would provide more homes for returning players and incentives to be active in those linkshells.
Just my two cents.
