Wraith have 2 very decent points.
1-The game changed alot. I started in Gamma and the game feels very strange to me nowadays. Cores, useless npcs, the new war system. I don't even know were to begin. Let's start with features I actually like. The new stat system for gear. It is awesome as it provides endless possibilities art wise, without affecting your built. Of course I would say that only the guns are now problematic, as the OP azrael guns are almost mandatory. I don't like cores. The game is already relying on luck too much. Why adding more block, deflects, chances ?? The new war system is quite boring to me. I don't feel engaged or concerned at all, although I have to admit it's better than the old ''let's waste varium on cannons'' war.
2- Build problems. Having the game appeal to a younger audience is understandable. After all, the game IS for kids. As simple as it looks for a seasoned player, this game is pretty complicated and have many features. There is alot to swallow in the first couple hours you start. So to encourage players to stick around, keep playing and eventually spend money, it seems the dev's have come up with a fool proof plan. They balanced the game so the only builds that can have some succes would be the builds with 45 pts on every stats. There is was, the perfect plan. The game is suddently easy to play, no more headaches about builds. Now kids can enjoy and concentrate on the art, the art being the new center of attention and the focus of varium spending in the Omega phase.
This change of direction pushed most of the old players out. Even after the level cap was raised, only one server was opened. That says alot about the game. It seems to average around 700 people at any given times. This is not a big percentage of the average 24 000 players on artix servers (all games included). But of course there is different ways to mesure succes I guess.
Of course, you don't have to agree with me, as everybody is entitled to their opinions. But I hope this post will start a reflection about my beloved Epicduel.
I miss you ED... Please bring the EPIC back in this duel game.
