Having instanced Myrland goes against the game design and against everything they have sold the game with. I think they need to offer refunds to everyone if they do this.
I think that might be the problem, it DOES look good at certain points of day in certain places, but rest of the time it's blinding/blurry/just really bad looking
I would rather put the money it takes to pay for MO 1 server and extra maintenance work to developing MO 2 into a game MO 1 could never be - which is exactly what SV is doing
I would start by making pet combat skill-based. You shouldn't be extremely powerful in combat because you spent a few hours afk training a pet and know how to press "attack"
I agree the resource distribution is bad, but IMO we just need more of other good resources in other parts of the map. All parts of the map should have a reason to live there, and people can trade resources.
World needs to be filled before they release, it currently feels empty and lifeless. One big issue I see is that there is currently no way to actually change the world... Like we cant build anything, and there is nothing permanent we can change.
Don't think the game is ready for the persistent...
This is a game.
And yes, it's going to be 100% needed to have a mount in MO 2 due to world being so large and foot move speed being so low. Majority of people will run MA so they can hunt
