This is why rollbacks are a relatively stupid idea in most circumstances.
If the issue was caught the moment it happened. Then yes a rollback would work as most people would simply be even unaware one happened and at most only 10-15 minutes would have been lost. Affecting at most a few dozen players, and very minorly at that.
But a rollback after 4 days? That affects everyone. We have right now a limbo state. A limbo state that is happening because of all the cries for rollback and no one is actually sure if it will happen or not. This means any play a player takes this weekend (Labor Day Weekend, a long weekend for NA players). May simply be upended.
What are these players supposed to do who want to play on their favorite characters? The vocal portion of the forum tells them to go sit in a corner and jerk off for a few days. Why? So they can get their thralls back. Thralls they likely haven’t used in several years because most of them only login once a week to refresh the timers.
And this is going to be the case even if Funcom doesn’t rollback. This damage by the community to players who aren’t really affected by this (either because they don’t have thralls, don’t care about thralls, or have dozens of replacements ready to go). All because of selfish EGO. MY THRALLS. MY TIME. MY EFFORT. ITS ALL GREATER.
They think only of themselves. Not the players who just want to play normally over a chill weekend, especially after getting power back after a major storm. Or a new player just starting out will not get a small percentage of their total time played, but 100% of it. Sure… a few hours played is smaller to someone who’s got 50 leveled up thralls. But it is all of the time they spent playing the game. It would have been everything to them. All their gear, all their buildings, everything would have been wiped out.
But this is par for the course for some these players of these servers. They’ve been a cancer on the Conan Exiles community for years. Making these servers were the biggest mistake Funcom ever made.
