Both of you feel like you're just butting heads in agreement. A lot of context and direction of posts are loss when you both are snipping your replies, esp for long replies and the points aren't being specifically tackled. To me at least.

I'd say the overall enjoyment of the game has dropped, not just combat but crafting, gathering ( because of things like favors that affect both) and even glamour (from a mch perspective anyway, the crafted griffon top fails in every regard and the presentation of mch is just ugh)
