Prelude: World 16

On the topic of quality nodes, I'm curious if water/clay nodes on underground layers intentionally have a lower average quality level compared to the surface. Maybe someone has a different experience but I have spent a lot of time checking for high quality water and ball clay at underground nodes and I don't recall ever finding any that were of significance.

this generally is my experience as well yeah
the only intentional reason I can assume for doing so is to avoid having easily locked down resource nodes for those sorts of things but idk

i have noticed that clay and water are pretty shit underground though- which is a bit ironic

and who are you, exactly? any one of the gorillion sprucecaps with q30 bronze swords that got instaKO'd at the siege of WB have 10,000x as much experience with pvp as you and are infinitely more qualified to have an opinion

Now say that again without crying.

What do my based posts have to do with the teary-eyed cringe you've been posting?
I'm not the one lying about imaginary bow users running around everywhere.

Difficult problem to navigate tbh. If we launch a bunch of empty servers that dwindle down to nothing quickly that also isn't great.

If you let us travel between the servers it's basically just making a really big world. No one stays trapped on any of the dead servers.

That's the first thing that came to my mind, but is it technically possible?
I assumed they already thought about it.

It would be cool if there were "World Border" thingwalls that let you hop to a different server. Sort of like the system Planetside had for hopping between the different worlds.

you could go full norse mythos mode and have a special Yggdrasil thingwall at the center of the world (maybe RoB is built around it) that generates the Bifrost and allows for such hops

It is possible.

I think they should seriously consider multiple servers unless they're sure that the lag is going to be minimal. The tradeoff would be worth it. People joining a new game they haven't played and being plagued by lag while trying to come to terms with how to play the game all while getting griefed by people has more potential to lose players than splitting the playerbase IMO.

If they think the lag will be minimal then ofc just stay on 1 server, but I doubt it will be minimal with this influx of players.

kino. Devs leaning more into norse mythos would be so cool and would give the world a nice theme. draugr dungeons when
