    Hey everyone, what is your take on the Season format in AFK Journey. It does help prevent power scaling bloat, but it also feels like you get to a point of not caring about systems about to be removed.

    I agree with you 100%. Other things I would add:
    1-2 primal lord per mo
    1-2 new map per mo
    1-2 new story chp per mo
    Better rewards for Honor Duels, Drill Runs, Arcane Labyrinth
    More interesting heroes

    The end of season has been really underwhelming. The power cap is really frustrating. What's the point in deficit pushing if it doesn't mean anything other than purple powder.....,I agree that new world content is an exciting, but they need to manage the pinch points better. Orange essence availability out side of a paywall, is rate limiting. This was such an exciting game to play at first; a lot of that excitement has gone

      I agree. The first half of the season (especially the first 10 days or so) were good, but now the season feels finished. I got all good rewards in all modes (AFK stages, towers, dream realm ...), the growth path is finished and like you said, the power cap means that most game modes won't change at all now until the rest of the season. And that's nearly two months of next-to-no progress and the same stuff every day. I am guessing they want to make it casual-friendly so that you can easily finish everything (and also all seasons will be playable later, so in like 2 years new players will have 5 old seasons or so to go through) but right now it feels like waiting a very long time with nothing interesting to do and no progress.

      I totally agree. I don’t understand why so many people say they like power cap. I just don’t understand what is rewarding about playing the season as it is now. I used to be ultra competitive and top ten in everything, now I barely have a desire to log on. I’m still getting mostly top ten but I’m just logging in out of habit.

    In my server, the season has been out a month and I can see players are already bored with the lack of content and the stupid minigame. Biggest issue is that every week around 20% of the player base drops out and I think that's insane. Apart from the lack of content, and the fact that seasonal progression is just temporary, the biggest problem are probably the district, guilds that used to be top 3 or top 4 ended up ended up relagated so much down and get scraps rewards (other servers in my district are full of whales).
    On top of this the scaling of rewards is terrible, we get a misery of orange essence and no code since two months. The devs are so stingy like they wanna see their game fail.

  • @WolfieSilveira
    @WolfieSilveira 2 месяца назад +7

    I have been loving the season, but the biggest issue, as was the issue before the song of strife, is that its is just a tad too long of a down period before the next season. I think if they made the season shorter by 1 month, then it would be more dynamic for the amount of content they release with the seasons.
    Also the other issue is how dry rewards becomes here in the late end of the season, no rewards on afk stages, no rewards on the tower. The astral fair event gave little to no rewards too. The crystal event was fun because it challenged you to use different heroes and teams, but I agree everything has become very stale and lackluster here in the end.

  • @jaysmith3125
    @jaysmith3125 2 месяца назад +2

    honestly been enjoying the season a lot, I like that after 560 levels don't matter nearly as much, same for afk stages past 1200 as it allows the casual players to catch up eventually. I saw someone on reddit suggest the devs introducing a new area on the map each month, since I agree there's been major lack of story content since the 1st month of the season. In terms of the resonance synergy I think levels after 560 should be a resonance synergy (since 560 is effectively the season cap as opposed to the pre-season's 240). My main issue is the difficulty spike in dura's trials. I am stuck at around 17/18 on every single one because of the level cap being 560. However there is up to floor 25, and the charm wishlist feature with it. It's a shame that there's no way to clear those floors unless you have the rate up heroes to S+. Especially since floor 17/18 is enough to have a mythic charm set on everyone, with many of the key units having their ideal charms it doesn't really make sense that the level cap doesn't affect afk stages but DOES affect the duras trials.
    Otherwise I really like what they've done with the season

  • @dimirsleeper
    @dimirsleeper 2 месяца назад +3

    Mentioned this before on Zeeeb's recent video, but their post-game is beyond lackluster. Granted Song of Strife's content was probably more or less locked-in at launch so it was harder to pivot, so hopefully they learn from it for the next season. If not, well, I'm sure that'll be a learning moment for the players instead not to invest their time on games from Lilith. *shrugs

  • @XenithShadow
    @XenithShadow 2 месяца назад +3

    I dont think having seasonal resonance synergy occuring as early as level 240 is the best, i do think that when we reach the point where levels are no longer being applied at full value to dream realm and seasonal arena that we probably should have had a form seasonal resonance synergy available, as at that point the benefits of individually leveling units v.s having them all level at the same time is negated somewhat. Also the massive benefit of being able to conver the 20mil seasonal exp books into seasonal essence would have been useful.
    The potential incentive for pushing afk stages and seasonal tower and such would be if we get better rewards for having reached a certain benchmark when the season ends. The expectation is our seasonal currency will be exchanged for non seasonal rewards when the season ends so having more of the seasonal resources get us more of those rewards. Although does make me wonder how playing song of strife will work if you dont finish it before the 2nd season drop, or how seasonal levels will work when theres two different sets of seasonal levels.

    I'm almost burned out of this game, I'm on top of almost all rankings, got everything I wanted in the game and every day it's just so boring to play. Just do some dailies and afk stages and logoff. So far this game looks not at all as a game with promises content for years...all the events are sooooo boring. :( thanks for the content barry

    To point of _Arcane Labyrinth_ - you no need to do whole run _(15+ floors)_ but only one floor, for guild quest. 👍
    Its same system as for _Honor Duel_ when you need for completing Q do only one fight.
    ...
    In my opinion, huge seasons issue is from the absence of any permanent character upgrade, from past 4 months and season replay-ability.
    To explain that - in Path of Exile you have seasons too, but huge different between PoE and AFK Journey, is way, how you reach the endgame and you can skip all boring early levels to reach juicy gear/drop in harder stages of the game _(before endgame)_ .
    You can play new and different character from level one, with different build, different gearing and it is offering to you different gaming experience despite you are playing same maps as you played in previous seasons.
    Way how are seasons implemented in AFK:J is kinda disaster - you are playing same comps, playing against same enemies _(just with different look)_ , you are forced to deal with annoying RNG gear drops and overpriced gear upgrades _(just working as the gold-sink)_ , you dont have any new endgame challanges, you are just feeling to playing another account but not your main one.

    they need to end this season quickly because my server is on life support theres only two active guilds in my server i have 10/60 active friends left literally have to remove some and add a new active ones so that i can do the daily friendship thingy and im now constantly in the top 50-20 in dr because most of the whales stop playing

    I didn't have a big issue with the individual hero leveling until for whatever reason the button that lets me do it from the combat screen disappeared for several game modes. It's a huge pain to be exiting all the way to the resonance hall, try to remember which heroes you have in the line up, go back and then notice you have to do another change.

  • @richs347
    @richs347 2 месяца назад +3

    The game has become stale, our current number 1 guild on my server can't even maintain full 30/30 attendance of players which tells you one thing they are now at 25/30. Even the guild that I am on that is top 10 in district ranking is losing people who show up every week. There are just too many people that are quitting this game, like you said it could be the fact that there's no point to continue when you don't get anymore worth while rewards after afk stages past 1200 as well as dura's trial once you hit mythic+ charms later stages of the trial still give the same rewards which is pointless to continue to push dura's trial.

  • @frosty8958
    @frosty8958 2 месяца назад +6

    Lots of glaring issues with this game. Too much repetitive use of the minimal amount of mini games. They REALLY need to spice things up man. I really do like this game at its core, but its been rough. I want to keep playing just to keep collecting and enhancing/unlocking heroes, but having no reasonable daily progression is what I think sucks the most.

    • @BarryGamingAFK
      @BarryGamingAFK  2 месяца назад +1

    I would actually like a few of the artifacts to just become a part of the normal lineup for regular use in regular arena. With a level cap and maybe a weaker statline to be in line with the preseason artifacts.
    I also think it's funny walking around with some DBZ power levels.

  • @marinefighter
    @marinefighter 2 месяца назад

    Im writing this as I watch. The most glaring issue i see with seasons is the pop up deals that is constantly giving out items that helps you progress alot faster. It wouldnt bother me, if it doesnt get resetted every 4 months, but knowing now...why even bother? i stopped spending for this reason because the game its so unfair for both f2p and paying players, i really dont think the game will last long.
    I would like for the Devs to stop adding these items in pop up deals that helps progress players so much faster, that it leads to no competition. I actually want fairer competition, that only those with more copies have a bit of an advantage. A player that is level 400 vs a f2p who is still level 260 is such a huge gap in power...there is literally no reason to even play the game since there is no chance for any players that decided not to spend or not to spend too much. Its so hard to enjoy the game, knowing the devs intentionally made the stages hard to incentives you to spend. im starting to hate the game, knowing that ill have to spend alot of money again just to stay competitive. its just a repetition of just spend more so you can have decent rewards in the ladder. it sucks
    Edit: wouldnt it be more fun, if you just log into the game and everyone is on the same level? wouldnt it be more fun, if the towers gave only diamonds and summon tickets? The only advantage that everyone got is their investment in their unit/team? The Dura trials can stay as is, honestly its not even that bad because you do get advantage but its based on your investment of the unit for each faction. I hate all these powders for increasing resonance level, it makes the game so unfun and caters too much to whales.

  • @8thGenn
    @8thGenn 2 месяца назад +1

    The season story should be a month long. The idea of capping people by days released is good but 1 day isnt enough. Who cares if people gotta wait 3 days to progress into next map or so it makes the story longer to finish and people wont finish in a week

  • @chester8459

  • @AdrianKidd1985
    @AdrianKidd1985 28 дней назад

    In my humble opinion, this is totally the opposite I believe: seasons should last longer. Not EVERYONE has money to speed up playtime nor all of us are 24/7 playing one only game. I'm a human, not a robot. Therefore, if I also see another game that I like, I'll play it too. Making seasons so short means that whoever likes the game, but doesn't have the proper time... will miss everything or backtrack 100% of the time.

    @pariwhoop4935 2 месяца назад

    So I do like leveling the heroes actually, but the afk stage rewards getting dry is kind of sad to me. The magic charms are good, but not that useful. I think the guild summoning is good in theory, but it takes sooooo long to unlock the creature and so little time to fight it that I’ve only gotten to once in 9 levels which makes it kind of not fun to do the points thing every day.
