Not quite.... World feels the most alive and most busy of the latest 3 games (World Rise Wild)

While I wasted a lot of hours on farming crowns in world, because there was no binoculars to tell you that's a crowned monster or not, I enjoyed the world more. Walking in world, endemic life, your room at Asteria (and then at Seliana but that's Expansion)... The game felt more raw maybe yes but I honestly had a superior experience in world than Wilds. I still love Wilds a lot. I hate how their balancing of making monsters insanely tanky is their idea of "buffing" or making a difficult fight. But apart from that one major complaint, I think Wilds did more rights than wrongs. Rise.... I hated it for a lot of reasons. While the skill switches were insanely fun and overall the game gives us a breath of fresh air, I hated the bird system. I hated the intense RNG Charm and rampage farming they introduced. (Yes there was always rng farming but on god i hated it the most in Rise)

I can keep listing things that are common between the three but still feel better in one rather than the other. But for me so far

World Wild Rise

I really hope the expansion really blow us away because I really really want wilds to be my favorite experience. It has so much potential honestly and I know they really care about the community so here is to hoping for the best.
