Codex is good, for new players especially it lets them focus more on what mob has better markup rather than potentially being distracted by shiny mission rewards on shitty mobs.
The nice rewards on the shitty mobs made it worth for some to hunt those shitty mobs!
Now, why bother? It's all one size fits all.
It also lets you take any direction you want with your avatar (focus on hp/evader/looter etc) as you go, saves trips to terminals etc etc. its what they should have added all those years ago.
The irons with they special rewards also let you take any direction you wanted. But then you had to actually wrestle through mission stages.
It was hard, but hard is mostly more fun than stupid easy.
And while i know some people like abomb are pretty obsessed with attributes most new players dont care about them at all, nor should they. They really arent important at all especially at lower levels (except hp but you can focus on that without attribute rewards) attributes only become a concern much later in your entropia career and i'm sure there will be some addition to attribute advancement added in the future.
Skills mean dick shit.
People cant even get rid of them by giving them away fro free!
Also every dick with a big credit card can buy as much skills as he want.
Attributes are EARNED!!! That makes them special!
People complain about the boring repeatable stage on codex but before that in your beloved iron mission system once you finished last stage you had literally nothing, you were just done getting rewards for hunting the mob. Ofc no reason they cant add something like every 2x repeatable completed choice of 25/33/50/100 attribute tokens and every 5x repeatable completed a cdf gun or something. But its a new system give it a little time to grow. Certainly does no harm in its current state.
Codex is not even boring in repeat, it's boring from lvl 1!!!
All the same one size fits all bullshit.
No more information gathering to find which mobs you wanted to hunt for the reward you wanted to get.
It's all, just don't think just click since it doesn't matter anymore. It's all the same.
And that's just the direction entropia needs, to make the grind even more boring than it was.
And there I was thinking it couldn't become more boring.
But yeah, each time MA finds a way to make Entropia even more boring!
And all because they want every creature with 1 brain cell to be able to play.
Very nice indeed.
