Epicduel is a fun game but when you really play it alot, you find that this is a game based on hardcore gaming. The leaderboards all require enormous amounts of time to be invested into them and if you want to really be vertasile with different varieties of builds, then huge amounts of money are spent to enhance and buy weapons for certain builds.'

What do you think of ED? Do you enjoy playing a game that involves a lot of investment, both time and money-wise? or Are you able to play this game lightly without being drawn to hit the Leaderboards?

This isn't the EpicDuel I played more than a year ago. I no longer enjoy this game as much as I used to.



Wraith -> RE: Epicduel No Place for the Light-Hearted? (4/17/2011 20:32:18)

I enjoy it :). I haven;t played that much since beta, i came back, and i dont remember what it was like before.

It's not that it just got a lot worse overtime.



Firewallblast -> RE: Epicduel No Place for the Light-Hearted? (4/17/2011 20:57:26)

I started just b4 the new year and there's been a drastic change from even that time. I can't imagine the change since beta or even alpha. This is not the epic duel i became addicted too, its like a game i played a long time ago it became ruined and childlike.



beastmo -> RE: Epicduel No Place for the Light-Hearted? (4/17/2011 21:01:44)

beta ftw



altimatum -> RE: Epicduel No Place for the Light-Hearted? (4/17/2011 21:38:05)

Equipment moves too fast now [:@] not made of money here.... time-wise i can invest time yes, it was uber addictive at beta stages. Now? I just make new accounts and play through the levels.... don't need to invest as much time now with the power hour [:)]



T.600 -> RE: Epicduel No Place for the Light-Hearted? (4/17/2011 21:40:55)

beta ftw... :D



Xendran -> RE: Epicduel No Place for the Light-Hearted? (4/17/2011 22:39:14)

It used to be fun. Then gamma happened.



DillBagel -> RE: Epicduel No Place for the Light-Hearted? (4/17/2011 23:14:01)

I don't play much of any of these games anymore.
I like gamma as a whole, but I still don't like this forum merger thingy...



Porsche911 -> RE: Epicduel No Place for the Light-Hearted? (4/17/2011 23:43:51)

BETA FTW!!!!!

...PORSCHE...

I looked at thus fourm as a whole, and I think the main problem is that the community here has become too focused on the Balancing side of things.

Let us look breifly at the other fourms of this place. With the storyline Advancing in Dragonfable, there have been several awesome threads debating on the alligence of NPC's, what evil will occur on Friday 13th, and whena war comes along the atmosphere is usualy quite good and creative. But when all you have in game is numbers like in ED, you become centered on the numbers.

I tried to rectify this with a storyline speculation thread, but it only has three posts, two of which are mine and the third saying why balance is important, and is on the second page due to all the balance threads. I feel we need to find a balence between talking about balance and other things like storyline, or it WILL slowly kill ED.



goldslayer1 -> RE: Epicduel No Place for the Light-Hearted? (4/18/2011 3:56:32)

@mega
yeah ED didn't even have a storyline until gamma thats the problem.
and when gamma ends and goes into delta thats when the actualy storyline is going to be released. that my guess.



megakyle777 -> RE: Epicduel No Place for the Light-Hearted? (4/18/2011 4:17:49)

I could have sworn that the storyline in the thread was around before Gamma. Sure more stuff like Character Bios were created, but the general story was about long before even the merger.

I have decided I shall make a thread about the intentions of Caden and see how that goes.[&:]



XxEPiC Str3NGtHxX -> RE: Epicduel No Place for the Light-Hearted? (4/18/2011 5:37:59)

I agree with megakyle, what is it about balance attracts you people? wouldn't you rather have fun with wacky and crazy builds? I know I would.



megakyle777 -> RE: Epicduel No Place for the Light-Hearted? (4/18/2011 5:43:27)

I don't know about crazy builds. Sure they can be fun, but the thing, balance IS needed, otherwise people would start complaining and things could not be beaten (Yeah, because they don't already). It just should not be the be all and end all and get to rediculous points, which ED has done.

Let us look at AQ for a GOOD example of balence. There is a group called the Knights of Order who go through the game, look for overpowered and Underpowered stuff and nerf or buff it as needed while the rest ofg the AQ team conentgrate on fun releases. Such a thoing would do ED the worlkd of good, while making sure we get stuff like the story iun game and appeasing both sides of the argument.



Lord GaGa -> RE: Epicduel No Place for the Light-Hearted? (4/18/2011 6:00:38)

I ratherd it during Founder, the comunity now is more unskilled and kokky in my opinion



jegaggin -> RE: Epicduel No Place for the Light-Hearted? (4/18/2011 6:32:02)

yah i think so but thats because only the members of other gaems were playing (the hard gamers)



Sparticus -> RE: Epicduel No Place for the Light-Hearted? (4/18/2011 8:19:23)

I agree with most of the experienced players when I say Beta was great. Gamma ruined this game.



saaaaaaaaaaaaa -> RE: Epicduel No Place for the Light-Hearted? (4/18/2011 8:21:59)

i only joined during gamma halloween...
but... i still love playing casually



TurkishIncubus -> RE: Epicduel No Place for the Light-Hearted? (4/18/2011 9:57:28)

This is a PvP game so you are racing with other ppl , More Work = More Success , you cant change this.

For Money-wise , This game is too expansive for a Flash game and After Gamma , it become More expansive but you dont need to buy Varium for being successfull there is a lot Non Varium players More successfull than most of varium ppl so you can cover the varium advantage with playing more.

This Game is fun because you are racing with ppl so you need to give time if you cant enjoy or if you dont have time maybe you should try to get enjoy from different parts of this game (Making Video - Defeating NPC's - doing Missions - etc. )
