It's not easy i just mean it's doable as a level 1. So as a level 20 it's easy.

If you want an easy mode then you can always just download the source upload the mobs/quests etc to the content editor and tweak the stats of the monsters, drops etc to get the ball rolling. If you generate interest in the easy mode that would get you more followers than getting upset.

I for one am would be happy to have an easy mode to create a wider fan base. But i think the development team have more important things to focus on at the moment.

I'm not sure if you're just bring facetious but......I think the harder difficulties just help with re playability. Rather than people just grinding in the same completed game it gives them more goals to achieve. Also it helps too have upgraded equipment drops too from the harder difficulties. Keeps people playing a lot longer. When the games complete and there's no reason to level any more people will just stop playing and move onto something else. Yes you can also keep generating new content but that takes a long time and effort and most people aren't patient.

@Bard I did not dismiss the discussion. I stated what a lot of people were saying about this game and the thoughts of an easy level. I stated that if you have problems, there are avenues for you to take, these boards for instance. And these boards are linked in game. They are not hidden where you might have to google the game and see what comes up. I talked about the sense of ownership that those that have helped out in the development and answering of questions. Those that have been playing for a long time, they have done more and are able to answer questions better than those of us that have not. When I had a question about my Shadow of the Slayer, I asked and was bombarded by answers. Started a lengthy discussion about weapons and which ones were better and what not. It's that sense of community that I like about this game. If this game is too hard, then ask for help. I remember people getting stuck in blackwater mountain when it first came out. They were stuck because they did not have enough potions to heal them to be able to get back down. I was there myself. I used an old save slot to get out of that situation. But those that were not that lucky, other members on the board gave them ideas on what to do. So no, I will not step aside, I will state my opinion, and if you think I was speaking for you, then I apologize for that, I do not apologize for stating my opinion.

this is an interesting discussion,
but you guys are making me nervous...



Flame Trolls are weak against Banning
(jokes... just jokes!)



let's not read too much into others post,
especially if they bother us.

focus on posting positive posts - to help people,
(or develop relationships)
and everything will be peachy!

i started this thread, and since then...
i realized that nothing will be done until the game is finished - or very close!

so let's just look foreward to the next release...
IT'S ONLY DAYS AWAY!

HYPE?!?

YES!!!

Facetious? I can be I suppose. An extreme mode would be interesting especially with the monsters doing more damage. Perhaps a level could be set for unlocking hard/extreme mode say level 60. IMO the most important point for most players is content. If one looks at reviews and comments on the game the main bugbear is "too slow between releases." Personally I think "the only good Bugbear is a dead Bugbear."

There are bugbears?

I think they, like so much else, will be introduced in a future update!
