I have always said this, but lower levels should have missions around the village and the more they progress the further the missions will take them towards another faction's village. A simple solution to this is a main story quest-line for each village, but regular dailies that take place using these sectioned parameters per level can work too. Another thing is having multiple entry points into a village. Yes, a village may have one exit/entrance however enemies will never use this when invading or infiltrating the enemy base. They may 1) blow a hole in the wall, 2) dig a tunnel underneath, 3) fly over into the village, 4) rock climb into the village, 5) sneak through a caravan. The game should reflect this realism when it comes to the games missions so they cannot ever be in-completable through camping. People are bored and will jump at the opportunity to attack anything they see. When others are able to play the game to attack something, no one wants to sit there doing nothing. So, my point is again -- let's not focus on discouraging players from playing the game, but let's make better mechanics and maps that gets lowbies a chance to complete their missions. I agree with this. I am not trying to make excuses for Rory, however it is true that everything has been tweaked a lot making descriptions hard to keep up to date. I think it wouldn't hurt if Rory added on a few people onto his team purely for descriptions, dialogue and lore purposes. This could help with missions, NPC's and bring a dutiful purpose to those playing.

PvP doesn't do that. PvP is fine. Going out and hunting people and killing people in the danger zones especially solo is a fine reward when you win, especially when you kill someone you dislike. I, a veteran player have temporarily quit because Rory was issuing out so many updates I was tired of not being able to utilize the fast log in he gave us, (my download speed is garbage) and yes also because of Nin's very toxic community. I've asked around to some other old players and we all came upon an agreement that we would be more than happy to return to Nin if the toxicity ceased. It will never happen. Toxicity will never die in this game or in any major MMORPG, hell I got my router DDoS'd because I told some guy to stfu on Battlefront 2 after he was raging and he cost us the match because he didn't want to cooperate as a team. You can only control the toxicity and tear it down to a minimum. Even on major MMORPG's, like Star Wars: The Old Republic the admins don't even make a presence because if you utilize their report system and their support tickets, they will easily take care of the situation as fast and as soon as they can, but that game has been around since 2010 and the point is that people are still toxic to each other. Understand that realistically we are in a time of global pandemic, panic and almost everyone is considered mentally unstable and very stressed. The minority are medicated, the majority (a huge majority play this game) don't even realize that by being toxic,, discriminatory or disrespectful they are indirectly admitting to being mentally ill and are not medicated. Sometimes, it's enough for someone to just say "Shut up trash" to actually piss somebody off. The argument that words don't hurt is bullshit. Practice empathy for people. I firmly believe that @Ueda should hire admins specifically for handling toxic reports and should crack down on the toxicity that the players are so willing to give. Let's not forget that most arguments go toward somebody's real life status because players on this game can't handle losing in a PvP 1v1 for some reason, even though skill isn't the only factor (Ping and FPS can still improve someone's Nin performance). I've had players flat out tell me that they hope my mom died soon, that they hoped I get cancer, I've been told to kill myself countless times, I've been jumped for hours in game, I've been followed to other game's, I've had account passwords hacked and more (it sucks because I'll never get those accounts back, and that's another reason I refuse to play Nin Online; until Rory figures out how to increase security I refuse to play), but you really don't see me complaining about it, especially because this community is so hellbent on painting me as a racist homophobe despite the fact I'm sexually attracted to both sexes. This community picks and chooses the days when it can handle dark humor or when they want to paint you as the bad guy, but God Forbid you throw their energy back at them. They will make you the villain. The only way you can combat against this is to report them to the proper authorities (i.e FBI handles Cyber Crimes // DDoSing and Doxing are imprisonable for up to 15 years), or the Nin Online Staff Team.

the reason why the game doest have +300 player is because the community is and always was toxic.

My question is as a new player do I have to just deal with getting killed over and over again as I try to get to my objective? I don't have a problem with someone killing me in their territory or whatever but there could be a more helpful beginner experience to keep people coming back.
