A bunch of ideas to think about

  • Okay so... there's a few things that have been bothering me and my friends immensely while playing this specific version of Soul Worker. To me, these things are so critical that they remove a whole chunk of my fun playing this game so I'd appreciate if something would be done about that at some point in one form or another.


    1: A fashion preview function - How many times have I stood here asking myself whether or not I want to get a certain outfit either from the grutin vendor or the cash shop and opted not to simply because there was no preview of how it would look on me? Many, many times. Having no preview functionality in a game where the fashion is this expensive is... let's just say less than optimal.


    Which leads me to...

    2: An in-game cash shop - Get rid of the steam overlay cash shop and get an entirely in-game one. It's that easy. I'm sorry for being so blunt but I feel like I have to be... the steam overlay shop is pure trash. It feels bad. It loads bad. It's next to impossible to see how good something looks. It's unintuitive. It's intrusive. Get rid of it. It's not a good thing and no one wants it. Go get an in-game shop with preview functionality like them koreans or japanese people have it.


    3: Make all profiles public - Why is there a functionality to hide profiles in the first place? It's nonsense. Even more so if you have daily quest "Make friends with someone wearing weapon X" and it's next to impossible to do because everyone has their damned profiles hidden. Not to mention when you want to know what someone is wearing and you can't find out because of it. I don't think there is any need at all to hide profiles.


    4: A way to hide (at least) hats - Not much to say here. It's a function many MMOs have and it's one I crave personally. I'm not a huge fan of hats or anything like it. I'd like to get the bonuses of hats but I don't want to wear them simply because I don't find them aesthetically pleasing honestly. Could just make an "invisible" costume for a super easy solution. Just a personal preference really.


    and lastly, very important number...

    5: Class costumes - Why is it that in every GF game I have played so far that offers class costumes at some point or another we get those handed to us only to get them ripped from our grasp again? This is class identity. We want those costumes. And not gated behind some stupid 5k points package where we don't need / want the majority of the contents of either. Now, correct me if I'm wrong (I'm only 45 now after all) but there is no way that I know of to get permanent versions of these class outfits when they're practically the character's original design. Is it asking too much when all I want is the actual character outfit? It doesn't even need slots. Or stats. Or whatever. All I want is a damned permanent class outfit instead of something that exists only to tease us with something we will never get.

  • These are all fair suggestions that many people have suggested many times before. For the profiles, are you seriously having that big of a problem with player profiles? I've only run into someone with a blocked profile once or twice. Hiding hats is definitely something I'd like, I don't know why it's a thing.

    This is not something exclusive to Gameforge. There are several Korean MMORPGS that have time-limited outfits, and all published by different publishers too. Why? I have no clue, to be honest. It's grating and I'd love to have my character's 'original' outfit. We might see it in the cash shop some day, I hope.

  • There is an in game shop. You just don't have it because you chose to play on steam.

    Interesting. Then replace the steam shop trash with the non-steam version I suppose? Question is - does it have a preview? If not, it needs one.


    Also another thing I just remembered which would be

    6: Skill Resets - Is it really asking too much for skill resets to be handed out at or near 55 once? Even just a few partial ones or something, idk. It's really annoying that almost everyone that hadn't planned out their skills from the beginning is basically forced to spend 20 bucks or something on a skill reset because GF aren't feeling particiulary generous.

    Unless i'm wrong, un the fashion tab there are 2 columns, for visible and invisible

    Oh, as long as the "visible" slot is empty it will always display the regular one ^ ^ Unless I'm missing something here which is of course entirely possible.

    Nah, I've tried like every workaround I can think of. The only way seems to be either glitching it (if you can figure that out) or not wearing anything.

    I think they should just remove those "make friends" quest. It makes the word friend have no meaning at all. I do like to hide my profiles whenever possible, so I am actually grateful for this. Well, I don't need to hide everything...
