I'm saying neither, what i am saying is that just because you have a set goal for the game and are adding new biomes doesn't mean, to put it melodramatically, that the previous biomes should become abandonware :P

As they add new biomes the end goal gets further n further away and ppl will have to keep running through more and more of the 100% totally identical, not a thing different, 1 dungoen/crypt copy pasta zones from previous play throughs to get there.

I can tell you right now the player base they have is NOTHING in comparison to the initial player base they had because they've seen it ALL already or at least the 40 hour grind to get there.

The smart move is knowing how far ppl have to go to get there and how to keep them enticed until they do.

As i mentioned before, i wont be exploring anything beyond what i have too this time (if i do it again this time) because i am not about to grind 40 hours again for the 100% same things when the next biome comes out, how many times do you think ppl will do that?
..but, ya know how easy it is to fix that..?
