Well it seems like a lot of new players are getting into the game, and it's been interesting to me to hear a lot of the feedback they have been giving has been about not knowing what to do or feeling lost or confused. I am not interesting in bumping all the threads about this, because this is not about hearing what doesn't work.
Lord Bacon-o said hes all for players figuring out stuff on their own, as am I. But I can understand being confused because I was completely lost/stuck at the beginning of the game as well and I might not be playing if it wasn't in Beta.
Stoot said they are considering giving players a starter house and I know a while ago he said that they have spent a lot of time trying to get the beginning of the game ready for launch. I know there are greeters to help (I personally didn't have a greeter to help me).
Anyways, I was just wondering if people had any suggestions about how to fix this problem? Perhaps start off the game by explaining there is no "point" to this game would help. Any other ideas?
