You get half the edges you usually get. So does everyone else. Unless of course they insist on farming obs/explore xp, which I've seen many posts megaphone that players don't like to do.
>I just don't get the point of making the game more difficult >or less fun at this point and a huge percent of changes since >Zulg left have been in that direction. Some changes have been >awesome too though so thanks for those, but bleh!
If your idea of fun is farming obs/explore to get every single edge out there rather than exploring (for the sake of discovery), RPing, PKing or otherwise interacting with other players, then yes, you will find the game less fun.
Thank you for the compliments regarding some of the awesome changes. I know our coders work hard to put stuff in.
> >If you want people to get less edges it seems like you could >just cap the amount of edges people get instead of making it >absolutely tedious to get them.
In this case, if you really, really, REALLY want to get those edge points, you still can. With the alternative you propose, there is no way to get those extra edges because we capped them.
>Edited to ask: Are IMMs going to be giving out a lot more IMM >EXP and being more hands on with RP things to offer more >opportunities at getting edge points via that direction?
Yeah, we are trying to give out more imm xp for cool descriptions, prays, interaction with other characters, etc. I'm making it a personal goal to triple my xpadds from last month, so I'm going to be on the lookout for cool RP.
