Thank you, Tuco. My thoughts exactly.
To me, the first major blow to us was Patch 7. I had more hope before they implemented the Barbarian class. Since EA began we've been talking about the idiot Shove mechanics that are utterly ridiculous. They're as bad or worse than height advantage. And what did they do? Created throw so players could yeet enemies and anything more than 30 feet, and they laughed about it. The PFH was like a mockery for players looking for a more serious gameplay, as if they were saying, "screw all of you. We don't care about making a serious RPG. We want meme material.". They even slapped us in the face by ridiculously short resting in a spider den while the spiders were patrolling the area for them as if saying, "We're ignoring your suggestions about having a better resting system."
Now, after Swen's latest interview, it's like another hard slap in the face, so yeah. I'm a bit ticked by it. Sure, he admits it's a mistake and such, but dang it's frustrating. It does NOT inspire me to continue bothering with EA. Quite the opposite.
This has definitely NOT been a good first EA experience, and it will certainly be my last. I first posted on Steam, but that community is far worse than this forum. Geez! I remember saying something about wanting them to fix the hag fight because it was too hard, and people bit my head off and told me to just get gud. But it was very frustrating when I would have half my party die before I could even act once unless I cast Protection BEFORE I even triggered the dialogue with the hag.
And here? Well, arguing with people over every minor suggestion I make has not been fun. And that's all EA has been. People accusing other people of just complaining all the time whenever they make a suggestion or attacking one another or arguing over everything... And for what?
"Oops. We spent a TON of time trying to make people take SH but still have a choice even though they really didn't."
Ugh!
But yes. I still think it'll be a great game and I still think even if they don't change anything...blah blah blah... It'll be a great game... Blah, blah, blah...
