for starters i’ve not yet played the new expansion as i’m waiting on the hotfixes to be finished, so apologies if this has already gotten something similar.
would need some thought on how to best implement it. My thoughts were that there could be a small chance that when you teleport using the whisper (specifically when leaving sacrament to ensure that any loot gained you’d have a better chance of having the space to carry rather than when you just finished a level) you could instead be teleported to a different realm or something (kinda inspired by the erebus realm in hades) giving you the chance to fight some enemies and gain some rewards in a cool setting. It would work well with some of the ideas you’ve already explored in making old areas feel fresh, by giving a little bit of excitement/anxiety to the players whenever they use a whisper as they never know when they’ll get sucked away. This was somewhat inspired by a recent intervierw where one of the devs was interested in making the whispers cooler
