    The only death penalty they should be thinking about is the one their company will be facing a month after this shitshow finally releases.

    I don’t get it. Is naming the wrong developer common?

    Oh wow! This is beyond exciting news!

    I am satisfied and hyped to see this game continually making pre-alpha design changes. Even if the game is still in alpha by 2030, it doesn’t matter.

    What matters is, it makes a lot of sense to go total opposite directions in every possible way so we can have fun together! The devs are so thoughtful.

    Can Pantheon -please- change the graphics again, but this time more coolies? Minecraft style! Tysm!!

    I for one, think it’s good that they are finally putting something «persistant» out there. I look forward to testing ut out, the pledge for early access doesn’t cost much.

    it’s sad to see how much they had to change from their original vision, but I it’s also good that they just didn’t cancel it after Brad died.

    I’m hoping i still feel Brad’s vision when i get to play the game for the first time

    I just figured it was an AI chat flaw.

    It was a "it was a rough Friday" flaw.

    This has been fixed. Sorry about that, y'all.

    Sometimes it can seem that way, I get you. I favour death penalties which make players interact, like having to go to an inn and hear another player playing some music. It is like a time out with the added benefit of being social.

    Death fast travel is preferred in any game for me I am lazy if I can skip 10 minutes of walking hell yeah I will.
    I still do death fast travel even if there's death penalties. I can make them levels back faster than my time at that particular moment.

    Wishful thinking.  LOL somehow I doubt this trash game was his vision.  Even after all the people that have said how much garbage this game is, you still think you have a shot at this game making Brad's vision?
    OKAaaaayy

    Easy Gameplay + light death penalties = success
    Hard Gameplay + light death penalties = success
    Easy Gameplay + harsh death penalties = some moderate success
    Hard Gameplay + harsh death penalties = failure

    Pantheon is trying to change the game into Easy Gameplay + harsh dealth penalites, but the oldschool playerbase wants Hard Gameplay.  With the harsh death penalties then the more they lean into hard gameplay the less success they have.

    They should have pushed into Hard Gameplay and went with light death penalties, then they would have had a chance for success.

    It's worth noting that their 'version' of Early Access does NOT include persistence.

    They have made two things very clear:
    1) There will be wipes at the start, during and end of Early Access. Complete character wipes of all characters on all servers. Many many many times.
    2) Early access is NOT launch, NOT soft-launch, nor anything resembling a launch.

    Also..
    They will be in Early Access for years.
