1st off, ty for the rope barrier and having the option to buy more.

No. 1: When is the next event?

No. 2: Did you ever decide to let us switch rune weapons without automatically losing those runes and putting the weapon into our inventory, but the runes do continue to countdown like normal? This was talked about in late 2020 and you said it was something you were working on.

Hi Nick

I also agree with WhackedCrafter about runes/swords. It would be great if we could take the runes off one sword and transfer them to a different sword, or put the runes on hold without losing time on them. Not having this option is the reason I always play with the same sword.

Hi, Nick

For advanced players, there is little motivation to visit hubs.

Please consider adding something special/long-term to the next hub.

Sanctuary has fertilizer which is worth the trip. Otherwise the only hubs worth visiting are Cloudland and Sanctuary for a potential satchel.

There are also pets in all hubs except Cloudland* in which you can rebuy, raise, and sell ... but still, how often do we vets really need to do that?

Cloudland would be more worthwhile if you created another basic mount generation for us to "skin/armor". ,,, (hint, hint)

Love the game ... not complaining ... just a thought for the new hub.

Thanks

*thanks Russel Denton for catching my error

Hi, Nick -- if the next event is the Valentine's Day event, then just a reminder to consider allowing players (who have gotten to/past Sanctuary) to rechoose between Burl and Fawn as to who they prefer to get Gifts of Love from, for the next year. Thank you very much!

I have a few suggestions/idea’s

1. In the recent “update” with the new display case and rope barriers etc, I redid my ranch house inside and made it look like a museum, now with the display case we can get in the Ranch store, it says when you hover over it you can place stuff on it, if you rotate the case , I tried to put a few items on it and rotate the case but it still did not fit but would look good on it, so I went through a few things that would look good on the display case but won’t go on due to coding etc they are as follows, Holy Grail, Crystal Heart- Pink, Geode, Golden Egg, Diamond egg, The Black Bird, Fool’s Emerald, Fool’s Ruby, Goblet of fire, Nether Orb, now some of the items I mentioned do fit but they sit on the bottom left corner of the stand which still looks off , it would look better if it was in the middle as such

2. In last weeks Q/A, I suggested about replacing the bushbuck option for crop research and replacing it with Gems and use the gems like “Luck Spheres”, and Flybaby suggested in using Luck Spheres which is good and all but Luck spheres are used for runes and are hard to come by in the game unless you spend real money, which most players can’t due to financial circumstances etc, that’s why I suggested using gems, they are easy and also it will possibly get more players researching crops etc, …basically what im saying is think about the players who can’t pour money into the game like some do and start thinking about those players who can’t progress or do certain things in the game due to certain resources being hard to come by

3. I agree with the whole switching runes without them being destroyed and placing them on a different sword idea, this idea has been suggested a few times last year and is sorely needed by the amount of players wanting it

4. CRAZY IDEA ALERT – with the QOL (Quality of Life) updates, why not let US the PLAYERS, decide with a voting system, where we get to pick 5-10 QOL’s and put them in priority of preference perhaps.

5. Could we perhaps put the teleporter for the explorers tent on the inside instead of out of it

6. this is directed at IamGroot's comment 2/3 comments above mine, there was no pets in Cloudland hub but there was pets in Sanctuary hub which you could get the racoon i believe you could get the clown and top hat skins for it, and they can be brought more than once too,

You're welcome!

1) The Valentine's event will start next Friday, February 11th.

2) I still plan to at least have a costume sword not override your equipped sword and it's runes! This is on my list for the next quality of life update, once I catch up with permanent content.

Glad you like Nate's flower box ranch item and it's animation! Georgia did a great job with it. We typically limit these event reward items to 1 only, but will consider allowing duplicates.

That would be a neat thematic place to buy energy drinks! Could be a neat place to get the various costume drinks we've had. I'll consider it!

This idea has a lot of support, so I'll think about at least letting you remove socketted runes for a price, maybe.

Thank you for the reminder! I'll see what I can manage.
