Crafting Update Suggestion

I don’t expect to be in the majority here, but when the new crafting update comes out I would like some way to be able to reset our progress so that we can experience it from square one. I have a few ideas on ways that this could be implemented, and I’ll list them in order of attractiveness.

  1. Allow the creation of a character slot that is independent of your other characters, you and does not share weapon progress, crafting materials, or dockets. Perhaps attach some sort of leaderboard to it / Or some sort of account bound challenge that gives unique titles/portraits or whatever fits.

  2. Create some sort of seasonal character system that has players starting from square 1 to earn account bound rewards that benefit non seasonal characters. There is a lot of stuff you could do with this idea, some good some bad, so it’s important to get it right.

  3. Allow players to wipe their progress. This option has to be very deliberate and maybe even difficult to do so there is no accidental deletion.

In summary, I believe that allowing some form of reset will help give more options for players to add longevity to the lifespan of the update, as well as the game in general. Some of the above ideas would also help to create infrastructure for future updates that are more “live-servicey”. Even if it isn’t possible to have it ready for this update I think that it’s still important to consider adding something similar down the line.

While I don’t really agree with anything in this post, I think if you’re going to add a save deletion button, you should have to type out a whole phrase before you’re allowed to. Something like:

“I understand that my data cannot be restored if I delete it, and wish to do so anyways.” Case-sensitive and all.
