Hi everyone!

I love this game but sometimes I feel like the game is boring and there is nothing much to do. Do you think there will be Raid Battles similar concept in WU?

    I find there is plenty to do, like finding the right balance between all the activities and making progress as efficient as possible. I will say this though; I'm ready for another event! lol As for Raid Battles or something similar... I think events where we may get a surprise elite foe to tackle would be cool, or maybe a hidden floor or level revealed only during an event could be interesting.

    I dig it. I get bored with fortress challenges after doing a few, so **** challenges to earn spell books quickly isn't going to happen for me. That's okay, I'm not in any particular rush. I'll get those books eventually. Meanwhile, new content is released pretty frequently compared to other games I've followed. Plus, as of tomorrow, we will have already had two Community Days and three Brilliant Events, even though the last two were technically the first and second half of a single event. I feel like that's a lot going on in only seven weeks since the game went live. It's been enough to keep me interested anyway.

    There isn't a super engaging story line like you'd expect with an adventure RPG designed for console or PC, so a person looking for that type of experience will definitely get bored with this game immediately. For me, it's just nice to have something other than social media to entertain me while I'm chilling on the couch, running errands, or walking around the neighborhood.

    I was hoping for a game. Turns out it's more of a tool to get me out of the house and walking, and it's become a bit of a Daily grind.

    Go far enough to find at least two inns, and a fortress. Return the 10 foundables, brew & use a potion...

    Returning foundables was fun before seeing dozens of the same while still missing some entirely. Flobberworms were boring in the books, they're boring in the game too. What a shocker. For the occasional Severe (rare) Foundable, there are dozens, hundreds of bog-standard traces which you will see again and again.

    Prestiging pages makes no sense at all within the story. It's there to make sure the game lasts longer. And good luck trying to prestige some pages, considering the artificial scarcity of some of those foundables... and with the numbers you need rising each time it gets worse. The bonuses there are limited once you reach the required number, too. You'll keep seeing them, but they won't be as interesting.

    Fortress challenges... there's one right near me, but it's nowhere near sources of energy (see the general opinion about that). So my trips to Fortresses are limited. Meaning that those Foundables are limited too. (And yet you get repeats of some[more prestiging needed], and sometimes you don't get any, yay...) No-one to play with (which isn't something I would have been looking for), so no bonuses there either.

    SOS tasks can be wildly unbalanced. I'm a Professor but it took me two weeks to get the 10 Formidable Pixies. I still haven't seen a single Doxy, and then will need to hunt werewolves. 10 inns? I can do that in less than an hour. Nice little hook.

    So... basically I'm hooked because it's what happens with me and videogames, and I'm a completist, which makes it worse.
