Problem is the new players are not gonna give you any feedback. They won’t join the beta worlds, make Reddit posts or vote on polls. Instead they’ll log in to the game, get pissed at all the walking around and just close the game. Recently I’ve been watching a YouTube series of a new player tryin to complete the f2p quests unguided. He appears to be having fun with the quests themselves but is constantly frustrated with having to walk around and waiting for energy regen. I imagine if he wasn’t making videos for cash, he’d have quit ages ago.
100%, we did a lot of our own testing at 1 Agility doing stuff like Cook's Assistant, or the run to Drezel and back to the bank for Priest in Peril etc. because we're cognizant of the fact that we'll likely not hear much from those players!
