It is with great sadness that I come to report my disappointment to see now a youtube video of how is the “reformulation” of Sepermeru, the biggest city of the game.
I was strongly betting that we would finally have a lively, organic, well-populated, well-crafted city that was a “meeting point” for PVE players and played by POP players, but ours is absolutely NOTHING, they only exchanged some few place NPCs.
They remain few, very few, do not fill the area, and are standing there, as if they had been mannequins distributed in a model.
It has no life, no naturalness, no personality, the additions are fragile and only perceived by the most attentive.
I was really interested in the history of unique heroes … which would make the city quite challenging, with NPCs super differentiated, larger, stronger, with very different physical characteristics, collector items for players to go there captures them, especially could capture them as slaves.
I am not a person who hates the game and I am sowing hate, I play these games every day for 2 years, I bought all the DLCs and I really believe in the game, but unfortunately this was a very hard blow to my I expected more in all times along with the improvement of artificial intelligence, I hope that the team will continue working on this and in a short time of answers the people who still believe in the game, and support, like me, I leave here my regret, my disappointment total equal to the youtuber who made the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k49ysv2yA0Y
Wait to you see what they did to sweet Daya Leaddrinker.
The horror, the horror
They say its a group environment now. The lvl 1s and 2s are the toughest on the planet.
I do not talk so much about the city battle, I say the ambiance in the city is a nice place to visit as in almost every game, even the single player that has no other people inside the game with you, but the cities, the NPCs do not make you feel “alone” there in the “world” you feel inside a city full of people, the way the funcom is making NPCs available does not seem like the city is populated, you did not feel “a living organism working” .
Simple things like scheduling an NPC to get water from the lake and taking it to another place, another NPC to pick up a pile of hay and take it to another place, another to take a horse, a camel … from one point to another, are things so simple thing that would make you feel like the city is up there running, so many little activities, little “living circles” that the NPCs could perform in every day period of the game.
They need a lot of seals in this because it is natural that the game is no longer “full of players” more and more they will have to dig the mechanics of doing the few people who stay, like us, do not feel lonely, especially in the PVE which is where I play and I do not cross with a player in the game a long time only by the same chat but without visual contact of the NPCs in the game, perhaps for that reason I stay so much in the city, that by more than ridiculously of people, it has some sign of life, life this very poorly programmed.
