  2. Y'all clearly missed the memo once again. Getting a balance should have been the first, it's already long due since we'll only have more players reaching higher stats.
    Literally who asked for visual changes?
     
  3. Aesthetics will definitely assist us with game play....๐Ÿ™ƒ
     
  4. Why did hipster need renaming? ๐Ÿ˜‚

  5. I love the refresh! Hopefully we can get a stat rework
     
  6. Okay? Thanks I guess?
     
  7. Cute refresh. Would be nice to get the whole stat thing updated but I saw somewhere that there are different teams that work on different stuff, so I guess the art section might have been ahead in this part.

  8. I'd been chuffed, when I learnt there would be a change in the Parties...

    While the new art/aesthetics are great, I agree that a tweak on the Party Balance

  10. So instead of doing something players actually asked for you're doing what you usually do and doing something completely different that doesn't help anyone yet againโ€”got it๐Ÿ˜’
     
  11. What a waste of resources just for things we didnt even ask for๐Ÿ™„
     
  12. Things no one asked for x2 ๐Ÿค“

    Youโ€™re legit losing a big amount of big spenders because you arenโ€™t listening to feedback. Arenโ€™t bringing new stuff. Everything is so repetitive and boring and being money hungry ainโ€™t a good look.

    YOU THINK WITH EVERYONES FEEDBACK YOUD DO SOMETHING But here we are again with nothing.
     
  13. The old party names were better ๐Ÿซฉ
     
  14. This.. wasnโ€™t needed. Although it looks nice, what we needed was a rebalance :/
     
  15. Idk why but this response has me rolling ๐Ÿ˜‚

  16. Wtf who asked for this. A huge factor for some of us playing this game is because of the nostalgia it brings. The 2010s off the wall humor and pop culture grabs were what made it creative. Sometimes fitting in and updating and becoming flashy are what takes away the character and personality of a game. There are so many other things you guys could have added or improved upon. This just made the game feel even more unfamiliar and bland. After almost 12 years, I guess the game has had its heyday and so it continues goes down the drain, huh. This is just another straw on the camel's back...
     
  17. Players who asked for this, please speak up. I'd love to hear from you about the new party aesthetics.

    Maybe there's a point to this...? I want to support modernization of the game, but I just don't see how this helps over all game play balance. Is this to attract new players? To me, it seems like minor aesthetic changes that don't hold much value. I would love to be proven wrong. Maybe the changes were part of porting the game to new servers? Is this part of an over haul of mechanics...?
