- Have you experienced lags that disturbed your game play?
Within the first couple of weeks, it was pretty bad. But it improved over time, and by the last few weeks, the lag was virtually nonexistent.
1-2) If you experienced lags, which type of internet connection do you use?
I think itâs ADSL, but Iâm not 100% certain. There should be an âI donât knowâ option here.
- Were the damages, various debuffs and etc properly displayed during combats?
They did not always display correctly, but this did not dramatically affect my ability to play the game.
The most common issue I had with this one was that every now and then, my Blessing buff would not display in the upper-left corner, even though the buff was clearly active as demonstrated by the âBlessing +150â text showing up on my targets as I attacked them. Whenever this would happen, it would continue to fail to appear, even after refreshing the buff, up until I would leave the zone or change channels.
- Do you feel that the tutorials and UIâs provide enough explanations on the game?
I was forced to choose the âThere were not enough explanationsâ option, but itâs not so much that there werenât enough explanations as it was that the ones that were there werenât always sufficient. For example, I did not understand the tutorial on using gems, and because of this, when I first attempted to put gems into my gear, I accidentally ended up feeding half of my gear to a gem, destroying my chest, pants, and gloves in the process. Kind of funny in hindsight, actually. lol.
- What do you think about our decision to hide the sub-quests?
Whatâs a sub-quest? Iâm assuming that this is what Iâve been calling âsecret quests,â but I donât know for sure.
11-1) If you ever felt mouse mode was uncomfortable, when did you especially feel this way?
There were many NPCs and various interactables which could not be utilized via mouse mode, forcing me to switch into keyboard mode to use them, and then switch back into mouse mode afterwards.
- How would you rate the Market System?
My only complaint about the market is that I would like to see some kind of filtering option. Perhaps a button off to the right side on each entry that will remove all instances of that particular item from the search results. This isnât essential, of course, but it would be nice.
- Did the Party Matching System help you in your party plays?
It was more of an annoyance than anything else, really. Popping up randomly every now and then to lower my already abysmal fps at the worst times. lol.
- Did you have fun playing Card Battles?
Flipping a coin arbitrarily is not my idea of fun. lol.
22-1) If you did not use Companions in the game, what are the reasons?
The only thing they ever did was get in the way of trying to click on mobs or move.
- What did you find most uncomfortable about Companions?
The fact that they just kept getting in the way.
- What did you like the most about Tree of Savior?
This question should let us choose more than one answer. I would have chosen pretty much every available answer for it. lol.
- Which contents or features were detrimental to the overall quality of the game?
Lack of ability to customize the controls beyond predefined setups. Megaphones being too easily attainable, resulting in a vitriolic shout chat more often than not, although I donât have any bright ideas about what to do in regards to that. And the chat filterâŚ
- What was the biggest problem in the second CBT?
The horrible, horrible, horrible chat filter. Not being able to use words like class, glass, grass, button, title, accumulate, or circumstance is extremely problematic. Also, words like damn, ass, or butt are not really âbadâ words anymore these days, and ought to be able to be spoken freely. That being said, I think the entire filter should either be done away with entirely or have an option provided to turn it off. Chat filters exist for the sake of children, but this game is rated T (at least Iâm pretty sure itâs rated T), and so children should not be on this game to begin with. Thereâs no sense in protecting the children who arenât here, and itâs patronizing to be treated like children.
I regret that I completely forgot to mention the chat filter in the report box at the bottom of the survey, so here it is in this thread instead.
I would also just like to add (and I forgot to mention this in the report box at the bottom of the survey as well) that there was nothing in the game that provided any tension or any âoh, sht! Oh, sht! Oh, sh*t!â moments even once throughout the entire game. Iâm talking about the kind of tension that would be caused by an MVP mob being right around the corner in RO, for example. I never once felt like I might be in any actual danger or that there were any actual threats to be found. It was time consuming because I was full support, but it was a cakewalk. Even the bosses were kind of a joke in that respect. The bosses were a little intimidating at first, but after it quickly became apparent that they were nothing to be feared, they lost any and all tension which they might have otherwise provided.
