A Thread of General Goodness

[StriderShinryu]

Nothing specific at all but as I've been levelling a new character I've been seeing a lot of positive in the dungeons and roulettes I've been doing. Lots of players asking about pull size at the start of a run and being patient when there are deaths or wipes. Lots of players willing to stop and explain mechanics when they come up. Also seeing a lot of Sprouts (whether "true" or not) and a lot of first time clears of the content I've been doing.

Also been running a lot of Heroes Gauntlet on my main for fun and seeing most players clearly knowing what they are doing.

It's been really good times in game recently.

Leveling an alt for the first time instead of sitting in cities doing nothing on my main, I've been pleasantly surprised by the general camaraderie shared by new players. People helping each other out during overworld class quests, not throwing tantrums when I don't remember the optimal clear route for Wanderer's Palace.

... and, of course, the revamp to ARR, which trims off most of the annoying fetch quests that send you halfway across the world and back. Really makes ya realize how far this game's design has come in 7 years.
