#57266, "RE: Great post, but I have some followup commentary."
|
"Awesome - I love it."
I prefer it too. The amount of energy (indirectly) expended on dealing with posts which are accusatory was just not worth it.
"Does this mean that now that the playerbase has basically communicated 'Please don't "fix" this thing that wasn't broken' that you all will actually listen and revert the changes to obs/explore XP, while ADDING the enhanced IMM xp on top?"
Communication, only works when both parties listen and adjust accordingly.
I agree on your points about communication and compromise. Would you say that we have been less communicative in the recent months?
"Thus far, when players rail against IMM decisions the general consensus to come out of staff land sure sounds a lot like 'tough ####, play or don't'"
If that is how you read this, that, once again is your prerogative. I personally think it is an ill-informed opinion if you should choose to adhere to it. Player numbers speak for themselves and they are as evident to us as they are to players.
The players do not see the work behind this, and I don't blame you guys, you are not involved entirely in the process. You don't have access to data, code specifics, stuff like logs of role exp., or anything else along those lines. However, the amount of work which goes into making code changes, or quests, or writing new areas, or lore, is significant. Often measured in tens, hundreds, or in some cases thousands (Hi Zulg) of hours.
If every bit of code was retroactively undone when people were upset the day after the announcement was made, nothing at all would be achieved on that front.
