Teras is notorious for every hunting area having an instant kill mechanic. No surprises here on the high risk factor, only wish they added more rooms as it feels like a missed opportunity to "discover" a new area and have a storyline.
A lot of what they do is garbage though. Paid events out the ass, they care more about the cash shop than they do about freebies, they don't give a shit when it comes to player feedback, I have literally seen posts where Wyrom is calling players ungrateful for the shit storm that was Wizard 'updates'.
You want people to stop knocking what's implemented? Stop implementing worthless shit like this that serves nothing more than to hammer home the fact that Simutronics doesn't care about quality.
It seems to me like an attempt at some low-hanging fruit quick content additions. Probably did not take a ton of time to develop, hence the reason they did it this way. Sure all new creatures, all new areas, with full storyline etc. etc. is nice, but that requires ALOT more time and effort than just banging out a few creatures and tossing them in an existing empty area. It is what it is. I wouldnt mind it if the area werent so painful to hunt from what it sounds like. I will be entering this level range very soon so would have been cool to have something I can realistically fry on without too much annoyance. I likely will not utilize this area because of that, which is a shame. But again my guess is this took them a few hours.

I work in software development. The #1 priority should be providing a product their customer enjoys. This isn't the developer's fault, it's whoever defines the acceptance criteria at Simu. If the acceptance criteria is poorly defined for your developers, you get a crap product.
You don't get quality software by having a bunch of cheerleaders yelling "Yay! Your shit smells like roses!!". You get quality software from having customer feedback.
but you have to be excited about any and all development because these people aren’t employees they’re volunteers being compensated with Buffalo Wild Wings coupons as a stipend, we should be thankful for any absolutely garbo shit they crank out
Well now you are twisting what I said. I never mentioned we should be cheerleading them for this. I agree the hunting area does not seem very useable.
I just pointed out we shouldnt immediately shit all over everything in such an abusive manner. Organize your feedback - give constructive feedback. From my 8 years in the gaming industry and 2 years in game design, i can tell you that will get noticed alot more than random bitching and moaning and flames.
