people did give feedback and were brushed off and told to wait and see. sometimes that's valid, but these new requirements are ones that a very active player can fail through no fault of their own and that's not going to change a few months from now.

basing it on popularity is also flawed here because there's a specific type of player who will find these requirements very easy to consistently meet. if a decent chunk of the game falls into that category, will feedback from players who are struggling still be heard? it's not a definitive no, but it's a very frustrating limbo to be stuck in when not getting a plot coin has a huge impact on your ability to be involved in the game.

players are already abruptly ending threads to earn plot coins (and some of those players are consistent at never finishing their threads to begin with). the system punishes players who are genuinely here to thread to completion.

+1 and regardless of what the requirements are it has still made AC overly complicated. the minstrel system was difficult enough to figure out before the changes

could be it's just how it's all laid out that makes it confusing, but i don't like needing to factor in so many caveats as i'm threading and assembling a plot coin submission

there are ways to accomplish what they seem to be going for without so much red tape

i've just given up on going for plot coins at all, which i'm sure was not the mods' intent

the worst thing imho is that they doubled the ac requirement overnight without warning. many players apped into the game because it was a low ac check in game that was relaxed about rules and requirements and focused on fun and character development. now it's becoming less and less like that. even if the mods roll back these changes the damage has been done.

And they framed it in the most nonsensical way possible, too. This game never had an activity problem. A lot of players were playing.

If anything, you'd think they'd try to target the players who are handwaving things and not tagging yet still hold a lot of metaplot despite their inactivity.
