Lets be honest here. They are trying to kill this game so they don’t have to work on it anymore. Whoever they have making the decisions over the last two years. Doesn’t play this game. They have removed everything that worked well as they created, and revamped everything. Now you only have a couple spams for combos in pvp. Thralls outside of crafting are useless. even those are not anything special anymore. The raid system is a joke now. That was something that we all hoped would get better with time, but it is still the same tragedy with different numbers. They did manage to change everything with sorcery. Sadly everyone got wiped, because they didn’t test it. They removed weapon swap animation canceling, because the game wasn’t meant to be played like that. Now only pve players use any combos except for daggars and katanas. I don’t believe it was meant to be played like that neither. They added sweat running attacks, but nurfed healing where you have to stand still. Those changes was 100% because noobs was in the forums crying because they couldn’t kill anyone. Outside of some cool building pieces. It is really seeming like Whoever makes these decisions are catering to noobs, and pve players. Without doing any real research of how it affects the game. Its clear that they have no interest in the game, or ever making it better. The cash grab with continue with as little work as possible. While they continue to change small stupid things to make you think that they are working on this.
Trust me, with a PVE player with around 3000 hours in the game, we feel the same exact frustrations you do. The combat used to be fun, and I loved thralls running with me.
Now thralls are just one more body in the most awkward combat animation of all time.
I’ve literally questioned if the person that made this design decision has ever even watched any fight, boxer, or even a fictional movie, that shows the fluid dynamics of a fighter?
They couldn’t have to put out something that looks like one of the nightmare scenes of my youth, where you dream you are trying to turn or walk but everything is like it’s stuck in molasses.
I couldn’t agree more. I was awesome at animation canceling with weapon swaps. I won several tournaments on different servers, and generally was the guy to beat. The way it moved was better than roll canceling. the game itself was headed in the right direction back then. Now here we are two years later, and its core game is unplayable, and resembles nothing of real movement. That being the driving force behind nurfing swaps. Its not natural, impossible, and the game is not meant to be played like that. Instead i should have to roll before my two handed sword disappeared into thin air, and my one handed axe and shield appeared. Now they are nurfing rolls, and movement all together. Heals still nurfed. Thralls are a waste of time. I just don’t get it. Trebs buffed, gods buffed. I don’t even understand how to pvp anymore. one thing is for sure. people are still kicking those same stupid jars around from 6 years ago. They got my money tho.
