Why do you care about new world launch if you clearly don't want to interact with or be anywhere near other players? Just play w16, non-PVP content updates will hit there too
I don't really care about PvP/PvE... sh*t happens. But why change mining like this? We already got one quality nerf with the stone axe and imo that was fine. But now... to push mining quality you basically need to rush Lumberjack, Potter and Gardener credo at the same time, just to increase your pickaxe q. Clay already needs HQ bones and a long quality chain with clay ->klin, flint, feldspar, quartz etc. Now pickaxe q is stuck in a closed loop. At best, with some luck, maybe you'll reach like q150. If you don't find good feldspar/quartz (and you can;t with low q paxe which softcap quality), while water and natural clay q are limited, there's basically no way to break through that wall. Unless you get lucky with a high-q ore boulder, or meteors start dropping -> then pure PvP factions just win the world... I don't mind making the game harder, but removing a key part of the quality chain... that's just not how you do it.
You already had a Q penalty for using stone axe, if anything it made dull as fuck having to slowly mine nodes every now and again for a small bonus.
Now there won't be any bonus at all, and you'll be stuck with a q30–40 pickaxe for a long time until your trees grow. And that's only if you manage to find relatively high-q clay, water and soil in the open world. So basically, early game just got extended by at least 2 weeks.

Bet you vote Tidö lol. Hope there will be some sprucecaps for all you PVP enjoyers to troll on after a couple of days, doubt any people with an actual life will even bother to play this world.

He is a libertarian so he most likely does not vote at all, unless someone promises to lower the age of consent.
