Now vs 1 year ago?

Ahh yes, Discord. That certainly pulls focus away from this forum, doesn't it? I know from other games like this one, with a forum that the actual game company participates in, many players don't feel like sharing because they think "the devs will nerf or negate our tips and tricks" if they do share publicly.
That's a fine line to balance all around.

I find it crucial to the enjoyment of this game however, to share information. Talismans, effects, abilities, fragments, souls, currency, events, achievements, missions, cosmos, time rift, dungeons... It is so vast that most new players will need help. The learning curve is almost too high for new players to keep interest for very long. I wonder if NG sees this in the install/uninstall metrics on the app? I'm only here because of my love for Maiden. If the characters were replaced with something generic, I doubt I'd stick around to learn all the complexity.

One thing that does concern me as a late-comer to the game, is the staying power and longevity of the game itself, and the continued involvement/support from Navigator Games (NG). We know the potential for continued revenue is huge for NG IF they make the right decisions. Game Content and Game Improvements are key to longevity.



UP THE IRONS!!

Having been in the game from almost day 1 I can say I probably wouldn't have bothered if I'd joined later on - the game was a lot simpler at the start (no Troopers, cosmic/bespoke talismans, awakening, clans, Iron/Frontier Coins, sacrifice feature or even soul fragments) and all of the other features have been added a bit at a time, which has never been too much new to figure out at once. If I came into it now and saw the complexity I would definitely be more than a bit put off without a lot of guidance/info being available.
