Island Sanctuary

[Izar_Chillen]

It kills me how people are wanting everything Island Sanctuary has to offer on Day 1 of patch day. Then your right back in the forums complaining there is no content. Just doesn't make sense.

I don't think Square meant for it to be a grind, why they used the word "relaxing' when describing it. Construction takes time, the more complex the more time it will take to build and that means too, you have to wait on currency in higher amounts to drop from your progression on the island and from your visions. It's not going to be very profitable just gathering yourself what little nodes are out there now, with only 10 exp points each node. Now if we can eventually send the mammets out to gather, that will be great. So have some patience, those things will come in due course. I can't wait to see my friends island.

Oh..and I do wish when playing the orchestrion player that if you leave your island the music doesn't reset to the default once you come back.

Well the thing is one giant time gate so it would be pretty bad if this game only had IS going for it. The way I see it, the carnival just opened up the island wing for the ones who paid for the ticket to enter. It is pretty cozy but if all you are banking on is spending hours on the island exclusively for 6.2 onwards then of course you will run out of things to do. That's the MO for facebook games. Personally, i'm holding my breath to see if SE can keep it in their pants and keep the inventible "skip the timer" consumable for the island OFF of the mogshop. I would be okay if it was some super crazy rare item (I loved the Rose of Renewal system in everquest!) but if they will introduce it then the realistic side of my mind just keeps repeating "it's going to be 5-10 freedom bux, it's it? :^)". lol

I do not believe waiting an arbitrary amount of time between picking up resources makes the game play loop any more interesting.

If your answer to "make island sancutary fun" is to not play the content, then I have some bad news for you.
