PLEASE DON'T NERF!!!

Steam users, mostly. From what i 've been digging into myself, i see if not the most, at least the most vocal complaints PRO-nerf, originating there.

Entire threads are dedicated on "celebrating" for the upcoming nerfs, that are to supposedly bring "balance" to the game, or crazy insane rants on "how that OP weapon ruined my experience with the game".

Actually, we got the game first. Meanwhile, Japanese fans are coming to our board to get their voices heard.

The answer to this is always yes.

That being said, I don't read the Steam community stuff at all (and I don't think 505 and certainly not ArtPlay pay much attention to it either, seems like a step above/below? 4chan in there from what I hear), but it would seem that our threads here are the only strong anti-nerf spots, and same for the DLC outfits thing. The discord was less one-sided than here and the reddit seems to stand with the dev decisions very strongly.

IGA and his team have an ear to feedback that is filtered to them, but they only move on what they agree with and in some cases were already working on/thinking themselves anyway. Some of those shard changes are to things that I haven't seen mentioned anywhere (unless again it's 4ch or Steam etc), and that's likely tied to things they know more about than us. Well, to the root of it all, they know more than us about everything anyway so there's that. It doesn't preclude the discussion of preference and philosophy though and I can't speak for what they will/won't agree with anywhere.

I see quite a lot of opposition on Reddit. It's just that it quickly gets buried and hit by downvote brigades. If you go by the actual number of comments, support to opposition is about even at best, I'd say.

Reddit is a joke. I complained about the platform cancellation and drm and got downvoted. Kickstarter page also opposes the nerf. I wonder who are the dev trying to please.

They claimed it is easy to nerf, as easy as changing some value in excel. Then, they nerf craftwork, that further proves that they didn't even know what they were doing.

One more thing, there are those who are neutral, they don't support nerf.



Look at the screenshot from discord. They received more shit and downvote than upvote.

The thing is in end game these nerfs don't do anything but inconvenience the player because everything is op. So before you would get the range of slightly op to extremely op and now that's been reduced. It's not fun, I like screen nuking literally everything if I want especially when farming because there is a lot of that. If i get bored with that I put on a base sword and stop using shards. Pretty easy to adjust without dev influence forcing it. Maybe our mod community will have to correct this if they won't.

Well, damn. At least, i managed to beat the game, all current content. And to backup the 1.05 installer, for possible future use. GOG version is the best version, out of them all.

I was not sure I'd like this nerfing buisness at all. However after playing the update today, I have to say, I don't mind the nerfs at all. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Looking at you, IGA! lol
