Currently this is not possible, because they have physical server racks like this

They can't add or reduce these without actually taking the servers down and adjusting the racks and it takes time to physically receive the hardware and due to covid and the semiconductor shortage, nobody was selling what they needed.
Whereas somewhere like Amazon would have hundreds of times this many racks and allow a virtual server to scale up and down across them as needed. The drawback is it being slower.

Isn't Oschon half naked on his torso in the few bits he appears? Thought they just didn't want both of them with a very similar design.

09-25-2023, 01:01 AMZephyrMenodoraFor me my biggest issue is it really lost the ancient greece feel of the pantheon with this design. It's just so random and off. They could have kept his outfit from the card and added things to make it look watery/flowy which I think is what they were going for with the extra cloth The shirt part is the biggest offender.Quote:

This is the 1st time I've noticed he looks like most Greek depictions of Hermes. Course we only see 3 out of 4 fights so the 4th is a mystery.Quote:

So I don't think Nophica was a great success either, in fact she was a disappointment, Nymeia is the clear winner design-wise in Euphrosyne.Quote:
