A constructive, open letter to the devs regarding exp changes.

[John3000]

When you go into the game you realize that most people are not upset by the update.

Your words "most people" seems to be very subjective and biased to your personal opinion, because "most people" I've talked to in game are indeed very upset with the XP nerf.

The majority don't seem to realize anything even happened

The XP/min nerf started out hidden in the Lamania thread, and got closed fairly rapidly afterwards. There was no official discussion thread outside Lamania. + this nerf was launched while most people were on vacation.

and the ones that have been paying attention seem to think it is more good than bad.

This is your personal opinion. The people I've talked to think the contrary, which is not to say there isn't good stuff. Lot's of good stuff. But the XP/min nerf is a very big bad for many of us. But since it doesn't affect your play style, you don't seem to care much about how it might affect others.

You have a vocal group of outraged people that are not only trying to express their opinion (which is fine) but are also trying to help others overreact as well.

Come on. You've been the most vocal person on these forums easily writing up hundreds of posts, sometimes misleading people into believing their XP progression will be untouched.... which was proven false. There is a clear XP/min nerf in Epics. Why do you keep trying to pull the wool over our eyes ? Are we not allowed to express our feelings and opinions on how this update affects us ? What do you personally gain from this ? Is this game made only for people like you who love to heroic TRs and do quest by quest ?

All we want is to initiate a constructive dialogue with devs and SSG, for them to consider our point of view, why we like DDO, why this update ruins our experience and what solutions they could implement that can still reach their goals while keeping us happy customers.

Cheers
