[Poll] Outbreaks: Purple Haze Vs. Corrupted Landscape

There’s a lot of talk revolving around the “irritating” design of Outbreaks, specifically the “Purple Haze”.

So which version would you prefer?

  • Purple Haze (Current Version)
  • Corrupted Landscape (Wayfinder / Rift MMO)
  • Neither, we already have a “corruption” mechanic (Marin Woods) we should be using.

Ironically, in Wayfinder, players also had a problem with the “purple haze” in levels where you used too many “Shadow Imbuements” (Gloom Collapse).


All that said.. @thomasmahler has stated he wants to do crossovers (that thematically make sense) at some point.

If we had corrupted versions of the landscape, this would allow them to bring in “themes” to the outbreaks.


Regardless, are you happy with how Outbreaks currently work?

Haze should just have some tweaks same like accessibility options(i. E. Make a slider to regulate it) since its mostly for the style anyways. And if its is intended to have gameplay implication lean into more Marin woods style for difficulty tweaks. Best of both worlds.
