ToL, is at a crossroads. It can go two ways. We can cater to new players of the genre, or the veterans from ToS. Too many games have I lost as Scum/BD due to a new player to the genre who didn’t know what to do. Then the opposing side just steamrolled us. Now, it may seem I’m just hating to give hate, that these noobs “ruined” the game. I honestly kinda welcome the amount of players, just that they aren’t that well versed in social deduction games. The amount of times the Guides (Huge shout out to you guys BTW) have had to explain basic things is just too many times.
Dear Alches who want a free ride
Go shove something up your ass. Its not going to happen. If you are an alche and heal BD, we will give you a pass. Just don’t expect a free pass early game when you claim.
Dear salty noobs
Suck it up, just because someone was “Confirmed” BD, doesn’t mean they weren’t converted, so don’t report them for game throwing when they get converted, and if you do. The Mods will shove a False Report warning in your face.
Open letter time over!
Now, we can go down two paths
~The Path of Playerbase (More People, more noobs)
or
`The Path of Veterans (Less People, more skilled players)
I implore you to go down the second path, while the first has the most immediate benefits it will not go well in the Long Term. We need to look past the numbers, and have a game about believable fake claims, lying and wins that feel good
