First off I would like to say that I love playing this game and can’t wait for more zones and quests to be added. That said, there is an annoyance with the time gated content: building contruction, daily/weekly quests, smelting/tanning/weaving, and Finley’s appearance. First off, when you start to …

I personally don’t understand why they use real time ingame. I can understand if the game is based on mtx with online heavy focus. But NRFTW is neither of that. First, real time progress gate just screams mobile game to me. My first instinct was “there will be items to skip this timer and it would …

[image] Pheromoon: Not that I’m opposed to timer in general, I just find it weird why it has to be real world. Even Finley’s shop. My suggestion would be to change the timer to be based on ingame timer. We know that the game have a time system albeit we still don’t know whether it has a day syst…

players would need a third party website to track the next reset on them Not really. The game just need to have a clearer time indicator (for example, Sunday, 17:00) rather than current hour:minute only indicator. The bounty/challenges then need to have deadline like “3 days remaining to complete…

[image] Pheromoon: The bounty/challenges then need to have deadline like “3 days remaining to complete this mission” with the time of when that request was posted. While I do like that bounty is more narrative based than ingame UI based (without marker, arrow, etc), I do think it needs improveme…

That’s a perpective I haven’t really think about. I still don’t really know what the purpose of these things from devs’ vision. Is it just to give people something to do, something to gain, or other purposes. But your suggestion could work, especially in multiplayer settings where you find time to p…

This is just my perception on the bounty and challenge system, but I think the devs intent is just to give the players some direction on what to do while they are logged into the game. Some players need to have their hand held the entire way. Some just need a little guiding and are fine. Others lik…

the crafting and vendors are not tied to your main game proggression so i dont mind if there is timegated stuff and Thomas already told that the developers are not going to add MTX to boost timers on the game if it get released in other platforms (phone, playstation, nintendo).

to be fair, I don’t mind time gated stuff either. The thing I am hoping for is shorter timers so they are not so annoying.

I have seen a lot of interviews of Thomas, and I think I have an idea of where it is comming from when he says that he wants people to come to Wicked everyday and there is something new to do, and I think this is great, and totally excited to follow that vision, but I think that using real life time…

I think you’re into something there. The time mechanics can be frustrating and sometimes even unclear. It would be cool a little timer or re-roll button as you mentioned inside the NPCs shops UI. For Finley, as he is a rather “rare encounter”, it would be cool a notification/banner that informs his …
