Maybe Im in the minority on this, but I am a grown person will a full time job that I take a lot of call for and so having the longer raids broken up smaller means I can do them more often since theyre not nearly an hour time commitment. I can do them before or after work now.

If your response to someone saying "Wow this change is kinda good for me" is "youre the reason this game sucks and you need to quit"... i need you to look deeply within yourself and find the emotional regulation an adult should have. This is not a normal reaction to have.
Also moving away from yet another tombstone grind is extremely welcome by me at least. I love all the changes and the mix up. We needed a fresh system badly
Yoship do NOT give me another kugane tower, I almost died the first time. (please do i love jump puzzles)
