The new portal system is a good compromise

Many opinions here and some people claim XP penaltie dont have anything to do with new portal system.
thats a thinly vieled attempt to get topic closed.

well they are totally linked the death closes a portal and costs you XP, that can now escalate that you can die more than once in a map

heres a few takeaways i dont really see being addressed

I dont understand anyone who says dont die in a softcore gamemode....seriously do you actually know and understand what you are saying?
Explain that attitude to me please

same for the game is hard mob....that one really makes me laugh all leveling takes is time not skill. anyone can read a guide and purchase gear eh.
Is that wrong?

cautious gameplay, risk averse playstyle. one button clear screen builds...speaks for itself.
Is that not true?

go play D4. well both games can co-exist, why are you even bringing up D4?
poor attempt to deflect and ignore the issue being discussed?

You are not supposed to reach 100..... hmm ok but the game is seasonal. no one is asking for it to be easy or fast.
why? Is it masking a shallow endgame with an excruciating grind and harsh penalties?

In a non compedative PVE game why would you care if punishments are lessened?
how is it affecting your play/game?

The most important imho...the harsh penalies are driving away players.
that harms the game shouldnt you want the game to be a thriving success for years to come?

Its pretty clear some of the posters here are acting like elitist cult members and would rather ignore the issues being raised and see the topic closed

I remember losing a juiced-up map once because of a lag spike and dying to something I didn't even see coming. Regrinding all that XP and investment was a drag more than anything else. It's not even about hitting 100 for me. It's the feeling of wasted time and progress over something that doesn't reflect how I've built or played my character.

Honestly, that's how I felt when I used to grind CS: GO skins and lose value on trades because of inconsistent or overpriced platforms. I've been using this platform to trade CS: GO skins easily, and it's been way more efficient and fair. It might be helpful to check out https://skinsmonkey.com/ if you're into skin trading.

the whole get to 100 is just trying to deflect from the core issue. one you have expressed beautifully

fix the penalties or xp gain and that problem should largely disappear
