Ah yes, winter is coming, and i feel people are still not quite into the nerfing spirit yet; sure, we've seen countless posts demanding nerfs of every aspect of this game... but you have to ask yourself, is this enough? should we stop at demands for nerfs on everything? surely there is SOMETHING else that can be nerfed... somewhere... somehow...
I have thought long and hard about this, and have come up with the following suggestions:
1: Nerf All chat abilities: Surely it's disconcerting how some people are able to coordinate attacks or sell things over trade channels better than others because their language skills are better than others. Therefore, in order to 'balance' the game, i suggest all chat functions should be removed from the game, or at least nerfed to the point where all chat is a random mix of letters and numbers, incomprehensable by all, after all, all the main talking goes on in the forums right?
2: Nerf All Human Mobs: Why is it Human mobs are so hard to kill? Surely if they had such vast power they could just march out of their little houses and take over the world.... Hence, it makes sense to make them as gimped as all the professions in AO claim to be.
Of course, the inclusion of an item or weapon players could use, actually called the "Nerf Stick", would make things very interesting indeed....... i suggest these things are looked over and considered carefully....
more to follow, feel free to add to this list of NEEDED nerfs... and of course, don't take these points too seriously, they are only notes, hopefully the proper nerfs will be MUCH more severe.
