See I feel like by dismissing me as a casual gamer you're ignoring the question. I understand the joy of pvp, it's why I'm interested in the game. What you're saying is that everyone enjoys playing as a low level and just getting wrecked by 50+ level players? That's not exactly what I'd consider pvp. A level 20 is no more of a threat to level 50 than any of the npc enemies roaming around (probably less than a threat in some cases). What's more likely is that you are saying that people enjoy the ease in which you can kill such low level players and they want it to be even easier and convenient by removing safe zones. I honestly I don't have a problem as is. I'm grinding away and I'm level 23. If I day by not being safe or I'm in the wrong place at the wrong time so be it. But don't pretend that a group jumping some low level player is some sort of hardcore pvp. There's nothing hardcore about something that doesn't take much skill.
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.
As a new player, I didn't even know the more zoomed out view was even possible. Explains why I've been attacked from people off my screen. They see me, but I don't see them... Seems like a detriment to play on a higher resolution monitor.
