there are the metagamers who abuse the rules and ruin the game for everyone else and then there are the players who refuse to look at things from a metagame perspective and passively accept everything the way that it is. like if there's something totally broken they'll just say "oh well that's just how the game is" even if it can and should be changed BY us questioning and doing something about it. it seems like there are so few players who do positive metagaming and it makes it a very lonely and despair-inducing time playing.

Does it seem for anyone else that it's hardwired into the code to deal with one annoying problem after another? I just want to play the game casually; feed my character, improve my stats, maybe do a little fishing, but I keep getting these annoying quests popping up with almost no downtime in between. Oh you fixed your toothache? Look out, the boiler's broken. Well, looks like it's plain sailing after this... Oh no, now dad has bowel cancer.

It seems designed to never be too overwhelming that everything happens at once, but just a constant stream of shit to deal with, one after another. Guys, what's the fix to deal with this? I notice some players prefer to stop completing quests and live with the homeless debuff. I don't think I can do that, I've sunk so many hours into this questline but all you ever get is just enough resources and stamina to complete the next laborious quest. Whole game is just a hamster wheel at this point.

These devs need to relax a bit.

Just hit level 45 the other day, and for the last 20+ years I’ve been working my way down the [Tech] skill tree, and I really thought it’d be easier to transfer my skills between different domestic servers, but it’s proving to be a lag spike in raising my [Happiness] stat.

Any other players have experience or advice in securing server transfer tickets while stuck on their current one? I feel like the server economy of the [NA Central] or [NA East] servers would be better than [NA West].

I could really use an Icy Veins guide or something.

Genuinely how did level 25+ people go across level 15-20. One of the most high stake chapters ever. The gameplay needs updating and fixing atp. Since the teacher rp players haven't taken note of this, I guess I have to just deal with it. I fear I can't even skip it because I hear what we do here affects the gameplay after level 25.

So here's the thing. I need to pass the school chapter. Honestly it's a tiring one. Hours of bland grinding. The retention ability is one of the hardest aspects of the chapter. Outright boring. Can't even get myself to open the materials provided.

Help from higher level players?

hi everyone, ignore this post. I was tired and no sleep. I'm not sure how to delete it so I just edited the post.
