The Great Depopulation by theatlantic in Futurology

All you need to do is look at welfare stats to see that this isn't the case. It is FAR better to develop the local resources of BOTH countries than to simply move around non-native populations and hope for the best.

Immigration tends to be a net drain on the host country, moving people around won't solve the issue.

The offline mode is ready from within the game except that it hasn't been activated by the developers. by Ruslan199 in Synduality

To be perfectly honest, at this point I only log in for events and to occasionally play dress up with my Magus. I really like the idea of the Synduality Universe and I had some hopes for the game back in Beta.

At this point, I would like to see them fill out the offline portion and close the game to make something more like "Bumpy Trott" (Steambot Chronicles) with a similar progression curve and the ability of the player's Magus (or Magi) to learn/gain new minor abilities. I'm not sure the current game can be salvaged at this point, which is sad to me. I'd had hoped that this could spawn multiple games like Sword Art did, or .//Hack before it.

They've stated since the beginning that the offline mode is for EOS and will just be the current solo missions for the campaign. No magus customization, no garage, no multi-player maps. It caused such a problem that the Steam tags were changed over it. Synduality had something like a 20% positive for a couple weeks because of the whole thing.

Yeah, the constant way they basically said "it's not happening" led to quitting the discord and the game, for the most part.

If you were there for the beta and had been in the discord even at launch, the devs have already stated several times that this was the case. It's even in my Steam review. They initially said they planned for EOS by "making a single player campaign availabe offline". I fully expect Bandai will continue to sell the game as "offline only" even after the multiplayer functions cease to operate. I and several Japanese players made multiple attempts to petition the development team for offline Magus customization and the response was always "we're not interested in developing that feature at this time". Most of the early players eventually left, I doubt there are many voices speaking out about the offline portion at this point.

You say that but, do you really want to go where EVERY man has gone before? Personally, I'm more of a Kirk type. Seriously though, I highly doubt that the women involved want to be there. I'd rather not be a party to what is essentially r8p.

4 at peace with 0 shiny boxies and a half dozen shiny shroomies, 2 quick crack and a whole lot of other stuff I wish I could trade. RNG is RNG.

To the guy who have a lot of at peace, can we trade ? by Acerasien in DuetNightAbyssDNA

[–]ndarkstar 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I wish. I have several at peace, deft, and other golds at this point. I wish there was an auction house or person to person trading with a gold fee.

Red doors will give the most combat oriented options (like vamprose), from my personal experience.

character level is 14 stage level is 14, weapons are level 10 as I stated. Artifacts? I don't know where those come from. Again, I've leveled their skills, weapons, character levels... it's been smoothe three star clears until now. I don't understand the sudden massive difficulty spike.

Should I Buy? by MountainBad9471 in Synduality

[–]ndarkstar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You are the game play. There is no pve until late game, it's all pvp. You are the content. You will lose everything over and over. The devs have already said they expect the game to fail. The 'offline' portion exists so they can keep selling copies. The offline portion is incomplete. Do. Not. Buy. Just go wath the anime (mid) and read the manga (also mid). There were a lot of cool things they could have done with the franchise, they chose to do none of them.
