I have had to make this same statement either in defense of us not listening enough, or listening too much way too many times. Regardless of what the current belief is - we aren't doing things just because somebody suggested it. Please calm down some of the language here. But the reality is that we internally sort things out and use community feedback to determine if we're achieving what we are looking for. and that's just annoying.ĭepending on which way the wind is blowing at any given time the belief is that we either pay attention to the community too much, or not enough. It's not necessarily just a few salty people who are complaining about a mild inconvenience, but rather the consensus who's done the questline multiple times thinks that it is a quite an inconvenience to. Most people don't want to start a world in spring/summer and nearly all pubs will start in autumn, you can't necessarily speedrun progressing through days in DST, there's a fixed amount of time before your next day.Īnd considering that if you miss your seasonal opportunity for crabby hermit as a normal player, you have to wait HOURS for you to get your opportunity The problem with the season-locked items isn't just limited to speedrunning, but also it's a general issue that isn't very avoidable. I don't see Dark Souls speedrunners incessantly asking FromSoftware to remove a mechanic because it doesn't let them get a pb. They should adapt to the game, not the other way around. Balancing the games around the rushers/speedrunners is weird in general.
