I actually really like that idea.
Re: 📝 Dev Discussion #71 - Spells & Abilities ⚔
Basically all of the ranger abilities feel lackluster except air strike(which does terrible damage for being a top tier talent point). All the other ranger abilities seem to be unnecessarily flashier versions of ranger skills from other games..and I'm not really sure if the class lore of my ranger is supposed to be hunter/marksman- or leaning toward some sort of Druid like character due to the root ability.
Marks need to be more powerful if our class is going to revolve around it.
No hate here- only hoping it gets better!

Literally entire Mesmer kit in Guild Wars 2 are my favorite spells in any MMO.
Perfect class skills for Trickster or Charlatan in AoC.

Major Graphic Upgrade Needed.
The game is horrible to look at long term.
When I first started testing on Dec 20, I thought the graphics where ok. But after playing a while I think they are pretty horrible and I never cared much at all about graphics. If I, a person that cares little about graphics find them bad, I wonder what others think.
This needs to be fixed before launch. Maybe it doesn't matter right now, but really it has to be upgrade. I hope there is a plan for this.

Environment interacting abilities,
I'm a big fan of abilities that do more than combat. These help with immersion and bring you in closer with feeling a part of the game

Re: Exploits and ...bans?
Maybe this is the crux of the disagreement, you believe security doesn't work completely so it's not worth doing and/or these efforts will have no effect.
No, in regards to VPN's i believe some people have perfectly valid reasons for using them, and since they aren't going to do anything at all to stop serious offending, on balance, it isn't worth it.
If there were no valid reasons for using them, then there would be no harm in blocking them.
Detecting bot farms using a custom VPN is indeed quite difficult. That is why those companies do thisI uave a better idea - name a company that operates online and does what you say.No need for a strawman argument... Give me an example of a company requiring valid ID to gain access to a service or product that failed because they required valid ID.
The reason I am flipping that around is because I can't think of a single company that actually uses identification services as a hard requirement. The only organizations thst do are government based.Intrepid have no way to verify who I am.Given the option I'd play on a server with verified players.
okay, cool cool cool
I'm going to assume this is just your way of trying to get out of answering the question of naming a company that uses the services you are talking about as a hard requirement - because you can't, because none do, because it is a bad idea, because those companies are not trustworthy and no legitimate company would want to partner with them.
I didn't read it. Only read the first sentence on this one. You can't provide anything of value to the conversation anymore. You used made up stats, argue it's too hard, people don't want it, you can't trust companies, strawman replies, cherry pick, ect ect. It's nothing of substance, it's anecdotal and opinion. I understand your opinion and no longer have an interest in it. I've given up trying to get actual data and facts from you. Maybe this will be more clear to you than just 'okay, cool cool cool'.

I don't care how good a game this is, I'm not giving my SSN to a gaming company. Ever.
