New Player Experience Sucks! - Impending Expansion Problems

[Shougun]

Indeed, it’s quite disappointing to see people demand the devs take away something I actively enjoy about the game, like serious there’s lots of other games out there that aren’t built around the story they should go play those instead of trying to ruin what we enjoy about the game.

I don't think people are asking story be taken away from you. More like they get to skip closer to content that's active (which causes talk to go onto how to do that, like if a skip potion should now be included or improved or insert whatever). Being placed on the doorsteps or nearby village of content vs placed two oceans away. I don't see how they're ruining anything for you specifically.

Although maybe you're referring to a specific request I didn't quite see/feel as you did, but then see it I did not lol.
