And we're getting the Live Letter for the odd patch THIS WEEK. Yeah ... last time that was commonplace pacing was indeed Midas to my understanding. Hopefully hunts in 7.3 won't be a complete mess resemblant of the original tier that The Hunt came out during as a result ...)



Don't forget the pervasive player culture basically twisting your arm to fomo rush content these days if you actually want to get through any of it with some of your sanity intact (and who will frequently helpfully tell you "well, you should've rushed it ... maybe next patch" if you dare to try to take your time to power up first).

The janky entry method slows this down a bit for the foray raids, but the mindset gets increasingly fixed into people's heads with each passing tier and taints every new piece of content everforward, and I have come up with no effective long term way of solving it ...

With this batch of content I'm actually finding a not small group of people who think if you are complaining about the content, that means you rushed it.

Think of it like BA. You're able to mix mnemes and create your plates at the entrance. But once you jump down, what you have on you will have to last for the rest of the run. In FTB it's similar: you pick what your PJ will be and that will have to last until the end of run.

Of course this is highly restrictive because unlike LAs system where we can stockpile many different actions for different purpose, in FTB you're stuck with only what your chosen PJ offers.

When one makes a statement that appears to fit with a general bodies of pre-existing 'witness-able' information it's easier to find credible without providing much detail.

But if one makes statement that go against the body of 'witness-able' information, especially if that information is approaching almost a consensus, then more detail is required to sound credible.

Details please.

(In this case I'm inclined to think 'not a small group' is actually, my social circle of acquaintances, that is a concentration of people where only white-knight thinkers have survived. A little bit too much 'group think' going on maybe.)

I think it's tragic that a guy named Fork is struggling to enter the Forked Tower, please Square Enix we cannot allow this injustice to stand, only you can right this wrong...

The reason DR and DRS were so well received aside from the ease of entry was that it was almost 100% personal responsibility. If you messed up you died not the entire group. I'm not against harder mechanics but can we stop pretending that its ok one person can wipe 48 people SE? That is just an unfun design that promotes killing people not a part of the core group that signed up for a run to ensure they can't grief a run. Its toxic I know but at this point I can only recommend it given the time it takes to get an organized group in and the fact that one sniper can ruin the whole thing because they weren't prepared is insane. Somehow this is by far the least pugable content while forcing you into pugs. I honestly think this is the worst content they've ever released. Make it instanced so people can get in when they have time to get in or rework the content so one person cant grief the run. One of those has to happen or nothing will change.

I will literally host a newbie run for you on Light if you ask me to, lol. I agree it is an injustice that a guy named Fork hasn't gone into FT!
