Swamps Are Now The Artificial Barrier?
Seems to me that the swamp is now an artificial barrier to buy time for further development, rather than just putting time into the development.
The swamp was intense enough before, but now the spawn rate is kicked up, the addition of the Abomination, coupled with it's spawn rate... It just feels like the devs are creating artificial barriers to progression. Why would I die more in the swamps at iron level than in the mountains otherwise?? This is really unfortunate... This is going to turn away a lot of new people from the game, and ultimately, hurt the actual success of the game.
I get that the studio made their money already, but man... It's not just the start of a franchise. It's the start of a studio... maybe they just wanna take their 5 or 6 million and walk on away....
As always... Catering to niche players is going to kill an otherwise massively enjoyable game...

while somehow refreshing that the op made this clear - this sort of "revenge" isnt a good way to deal with things imho

Swamp is ezpz once you get an Iron-tier melee weapon, shield, and Bow.
The hardest part afterwards is simply hauling Iron back to your base for the rest of your upgrades and, lastly, Armor set. That's right, you don't even need to rush the Iron Armor set at all.. I saved it for last until I quit being super paranoid and learned how to parry. I only made it at that point because I got bored and went to the Mountains before beating Bonemass and knew Troll Leather would get me wrecked there.
I quit using Poison Resistance Mead like 45 minutes in because I learned how everything there attacked, what could poison me, and how to avoid it entirely.

I don't see it that way. Only thing adding abomination did, is maybe encourage people to add another secondary weapon. Sword works wonders on abomination. I didn't have one until they added that new mini-boss.
Abominations are easy to outrun as well. No need to fight them. They don't follow as far as other enemies. In a swamp, all you have to do is find the crypts and optionally some geysers. In my RNG the crpyts have been close to geysers. Crypts are actually a safe place to duck into and heal until you open up a pathway. Rarely there is one lone Drauger within the entrance.
I see this as just another thread to whine about a game that probably just doesn't fit you well. No game can cater to everyones taste. The Devs are just staying true to their vision. I hope they don't dumb it down to satisfy some that don't really like it to begin with.

Ahhh. And it's you again, redgreen... Are you a troll? Because you seem to be hover around the discussions, like you have nothing better to do.... Or is it because I rebuked you in another thread, and you didn't like that?

And so you know, redgreen... I have about 400 hours in the game... So I definitely like it. I just want to see it grow to be more than an alpha that dies off before being finished.

LOL, so you think making a post to 'snare' another forum member as some sort of revenge is not actually what a troll does? Have you ever watched one of those tv shows about crooks that literally convict themselves because they aren't that smart?
Besides, redgreen999 is right about the behavior and difficulty of the Abominations and had pragmatic tips about Swamp techniques. Someone else was just crying about a change in an early access game.
