I have an alt on Crystal (and a few friends who transfered over there during the Great Divide) and while I notice that the instanced content can be...an adventure over there moreso than it is on Aether (where my main is), the attitude on Crystal is way more chill.

So yes, you can wipe a few times but on Aether where it would devolve to salt and rage-quitting and vote kicks/disbands, on Crystal you just knock the dust off and try again. It's a trade-off but the relaxed attitude makes up for any gaps in aptitude IMO. Haven't tried Primal but a friend of mine moved there so I might make another alt. (Honestly it sounds like a more RP friendly Aether though).
