there is too much other things that is very not "new player friendly"

what about 5 bots coming to your claim just punching it with fists just to "angry" you ? with no other real meaning... and then camping it 24/7

Will consider reducing the cost, at least.

This world I spawned +- 200 alts, for sure it wasn't 30-60 minutes ;p

Simple spitroast "chore" requires to have at least 5-10 alts and there are way more activities in the game that require alts


but thats 100% your fault. spitroasting takes 4 seconds now.
nobody forces you to alt and bot, thats just laziness.

What is 100% your fault is not reading the date of the comment you reply to.

This is going to be the biggest obstacle to new player retention, bar none. Even I was confused despite having played for most of worlds 4-6 (and having discovered this game exactly as OP described, joining simultaneously with a friend group of about a dozen people) but only briefly after "new" Haven launched.

At the very least, WBs should have multiple uses and last a lot longer. I understand they were implemented to address valid complaints by expert players, but that's done at the expense of new ones who are basically given every incentive to simply play solo, which is the least satisfying way to experience this game or really any MMORPG.
