Soonish - Complete revamp of RPG and Character Progression so we can have 1 satisfying character rather than multiple underwhelming alts with multiple unsatisfying skill sets.
Make levelling up and skill points have value after level 50 rather than a rinse-and-repeat skill set or alt.
Make Alts (and all the frustrating consequences of having to have them) a choice rather than a necessity to experience all aspects of the game to any degree of competency.
Who cares who owns it…let’s go big. Please road map a game like 'Ready Player One ’ the movie. Entering into a virtual world that looks and feels real…
My (software related) fantasies are usually centered around carefully planned realistic release cadences.
December 2020: Offline worlds, local worldgen tools, new decorative blocks and chisels, color selector everywhere
March 2021: Hunter, Ground Basher & Stone Thrower, Spears, NPE polish
June 2021: Player created NPCs & quests, Citizen races
September 2021: Worms, block parasites, and monster nests, also trophy decorations
December 2021: Farming & gathering polish, new decorative blocks (small release to tide over March release)
March 2022: Monster AI polish, Oortian ruins, lore, and guardians, Wearables
June 2022: Forge polish, prestige tools (small release to tide over September release)
September 2022: Titans, T8 worlds, particle emitters, Oort seams
December 2022: Titan cores & floating bases
Every time I see one of these threads I get sad/frustrated because the devs of this game refuse to share any information until it’s ready for testing and it’s ruining the game.
All our chat, purchases and activities would be tracked.
We’d keep getting ads selling us Yams, purchasing Combustion Particle would flag you as a suspected terrorist with the government, Peta would start protesting advertised hunts, and anyone with the Tax Epic would suddenly find they are being audited by tax collectors in their country.
Oh, and of course all formal announcements would be considered fake news and all rumours spread as fact.
RIP all those who fought (and in some cases died) for our rights to privacy.
Silliness aside though, I really want the platinum trophy to be attainable so my fantasy road map would be:
ASAP: bug fixes for the Journal Addict and No Feat Too Great trophies
1 month after ASAP: fully implement tier 8 worlds so the Where No One Has Gone Before trophy can be done
