Why did Forked Tower reuse the BA entry system LOL

I'll get so much flak for this, but I still think OC is the best iteration of both Eureka and Bozja. I don't enjoy the limited nature of both logos and lost actions, with logos being downright bad.
They just need to stop being so frightful of OPness and lean into making phantom powers a little bit crazier/fun and to adjust FTB to also have a more casual friendly normal mode for people to be able to group together and try, as it seems it was intended by the new interview

Lost actions being limited is exactly why they were allowed to be powerful. Since phantom jobs have no limits and no restrictions if they were super powerful then that wouldn’t be “power” it would just be an expected baseline

Like let’s say that the “average” phantom job made you 50% more powerful, since there is no limits to phantom jobs then everyone is 50% more powerful so nobody is; it’s precisely why mastery stacks are nearly meaningless. Because everyone being 24% more powerful just means everything is balanced around everyone being 24% more powerful than base ilvl 700 sync

Another possible reason they didn't make phantom jobs super powerful is that they were tuned for players who would be partaking in FTB. So, if you had too many overpowered phantom jobs, it would make the "hard" content too "easy".

That could easily be countered by just internally balancing forked around it like how it’s already balanced around the current phantom mastery stacks (especially dead stars who straight up can’t be killed till all their mechanics are done)

Forked is easy to tune to inherent power of jobs, wider OC isn’t

My assumption is that they would not want to balance FT because, as I recall, they want FT to be challenging content for the player base. They could do what DRS did, such as everyone could use a different version of the phantom jobs when doing FT.
