Hi! The shrinking of the map is indeed optional, and as we are still firmly in early access, everything in the game is still subject to change – so while it is not being initially released as gradeable and we do not at present have plans for making it so, your feedback, once you get to play the feature in practice, will be very welcome as always!

From our side of things, the apprehension surrounding the topic seems somewhat surprising, even though we knew it was coming... so we urge you to try it and see for yourself, because we don't think it's actually that harsh :) but as it became apparent not everyone was feeling excited about this in any good way, we decided it should be optional from the start. We don't like telling our players exactly how you should play!
