I tried getting into the game last year, and while I enjoyed the game for the most part, it was incredibly easy, to the point where combat seemed like something that got in the way rather than something to be enjoyed. I had healing spells, but I didn’t need them, and I was never at risk of dying. Doing any side-quests at all made me seriously over-leveled for story quests, and I wasn’t even getting into the story. I know you can just pay to skip the story, which doesn’t sound at all like a good idea (paying extra for less game?)
If they do something to make the game more interesting and challenging for newer players, I would gladly check it out again. But is this something that’s actually in the works?
That would be nice. I do like how certain skills kind of behave like that, namely stone. But yeah it would also really help folks learn their classes better too. Nothing worse than your hot bar being half useless in a dungeon.
