    3. Gameplay and Content
    Event Exhaustion: Events have become excessively difficult and tiring. Trying to complete them while dealing with technical bugs and lags is frustrating.
    Inventory Clutter: The game is full of unnecessary materials. This is an RPG, not a farming simulation; these unnecessary items should be removed to make the experience easier.

    ==========

    Absolutely! The event bar getting longer, especially for level 100, which I think is no fair for those newly lv100, but maybe for end gamer is just too easy :D

    Every times new event kick in, new materials take up inventory space, and so on, sigh.

    Really DSO.. NVM this doesn't surprise me one bit.. your really starting to show your true greed with this addition.. most of us I would say 80% of all players on all servers have over 1.2-3.1 million damg.. This Soul system just isn't worth the waisted andemants just to have another "PET" when everything is killed with one hit already.. O well enjoy if you can players but I doubt anyone will DSO has turned into the Western side of the gaming companies.. You take what we give you or just leave we will NEVER listen to your ideas of what players want just what makes us money..

    I do find it surprising for DSO to ask for feedback via the survey form because I have given up on the game. However, just in case feedback are still considered, I gave them a chance.

    Here's my summary of my feedback:

    1. Provide an avenue for players to earn the mythical or event set from the event itself without needing to pay such high amount of Andermant. Not many would pay 1 million Andermant or over $100 USD for a set. Find a way to allow players to pay with a reasonable price because it's worth it or because they enjoy the game.

    2. Stop using long event bars as a deterrent to force players to pay by making it longer each time, but instead, design the game to encourage them to participate in the event itself. Cater for all players. So far, low level players are neglected.

    I have more feedback but most of have been mentioned on this forum by others. Let's hope there would be some changes instead of having DSO forcing players to farm Andermant for each new set or pay a ridiculous amount.

    I can’t even tell what this unit is supposed to be — a pet or a guard — but when it’s active, it interferes with gameplay instead of helping. It constantly pushes the player, pulls you back, interrupts actions, and makes combat worse. When it’s turned off, it does nothing at all.
    In group content, this becomes even more frustrating. In a 5-player group, multiple guards/knights are spawning, the tank drops a flag, and suddenly there are 6+ NPCs cluttering the fight. In ranger with wolves, the constant jumping and pushing completely breaks positioning and control.
    Instead of adding challenge or strategy, this system feels like another bug that actively ruins gameplay. I honestly regret completing the quest that unlocks it.
    I don't know which kids give you the ideas but you need to fire them :)

    [​IMG]I found an item called Radiant Stone in the Rocket event, the icon of the item is just pure white(like the image icon doesn't exist). The description of item just says '' The sole light in the endless darkness'' from what i can tell it has nothing to do with event or anything I've ever seen. Does anyone know what it does?

    The game has become a complete money trap and contains no innovations. They make events difficult to force players to spend money, and there are no attractive events for new, low-level accounts.

    I am average player and I can do d1 for example at mercy level by just leaving the shadow soul tanking the hits xD. Just make it invisible so it doesnt interfere with anything!

    100% agree with what you said there.
    The only big greedy smugglers are those guys on the DSO team. They're presented with an event, and you have to buy the rewards you earn. DSO team, you dare to look yourselves in the mirror every day. This is top-notch fraud.
    Be a little more creative, give players a fair game. There are other ways to make money. You don't do that by stabbing your own players in the back.
    Not only that, but what players need is offered at such a high price that it's completely out of proportion.
    Shame on you, DSO team.

    A thought came to my mind about the last survey in which all or some participated and which is linked to the game events and therefore to the whole game.

    Was it a way to see how many players really like this game?
    Or to detect how many unhappy players there are?
    Or, beyond these two aspects, is it a way for the developers to evaluate whether it is worth continuing to spend time in the game?

    I don't know if it's possible, but if they're going to continue to focus on the development of the game, I hope they do it with a propensity that has the intent of entertaining both players who spend money and those who don't.

    I've been playing the game for over 12 years, I stopped playing it for 2-3 years.
    I agree with the new additions, but if it continues like this (hard to collect sets, low drop of materials for new sets, high prices for ingredients.. and so on), I'll stop playing.

    About the Mage:
    I like that they're finally designing other sets that could be a valid alternative to the ice one.
    As for the fire one, the set seems interesting, although I wouldn't include the cloak, but rather an other items, so that the Herald's existing cloak could be used.

    Hy ,
    I don't give it because it will be years before I get the set at whatever drop it is and I don't even put money in it. Of all the new items I put in, I haven't won anything by chance, only money, so..... it's not worth it.
