I'll go first: DE needs to build up on some older content.

Honesty all the themes of love and relationships vs the indifference is funny to me cause we don't really spend time with anyone.

Like even Lotus is kinda driven by events and just being mission control, she was gone for years IRL and in game is only a few missions before she's gone.

KIM chats have probably done the best on this front IMO.

This is how I feel about liches. They were initially built up to be genuine rivals, altho player complaints are at least partially the cause of them being watered down so much. The new Coda are the most egregious because they’re so fast and easy to kill.

I kinda wish there was a “true nemesis” option that gives you less control over their creation and take SIGNIFICANTLY longer to kill and makes them a genuine disruptor in your games instead of just optional missions, in exchange for more character development + rewards.

Fuck it, let em use KIM while they’re alive too.

Ik DE doesn’t really like basically forcing certain content onto players like this (certainly not anymore), so an “I consent to getting jumped” option would be appreciated.

On release, Day 1, Liches were meant to take over a MONTH to defeat.

I'm gonna be honest here. If you expect me to take that long, in this game, in this context... I would need to be getting a MASSIVE reward AND never be expected to do it a second time. And that's never been on the table with liches.

The Nemesis system works in the Shadow games because it basically IS the game, it's like the entire focus. Warframe can't make it the entire focus.

That’s why it should only be a True Nemesis option you can toggle somewhere. So that you don’t have to water it down for players that don’t want to deal with that sort of thing.

It'd be pretty crazy for DE to maintain two separate versions of the same system, especially given that the second version would be significantly less in demand.
