Raid Length and Invisibles
i play mostly pve, due to a lack of friends and skill. i like exploring, taking my time, looting what i want and looking at the environment and what's around me. i also, would like to expand over to PVP and from my experience the raid lengths have always caught me either forcing me either to loot and get out, do a couple missions and get out, do some combat and get out. i can't, really do what i wanna do. which i get the point of the timer is there for a reason, but it feels really oppressive and obligatory. i cannot really "explore" i feel rushed, i feel like i'm going to get hurt or killed rushing. i cannot express how scared i am of pvp, every raid i've done in pvp has ended terribly, and the raid length has contributed to that. i don't take many fights, i want to team up or sit and let them pass. but i don't have time to observe, i don't have time to wait. i need to move, i need to keep moving. not to mention the invisibles, who pop up randomly while i'm packing mags, packing meds, or generally trying to gather my bearings or loot. sometimes forcing me to reset or add time to the tasks i'm already sitting still to do. i'm loving the game, but the general feel of oppression and claustrophobia in the sense of "i can't catch a break" works, it does. the game is tense in all of the right ways. but it is also really frustrating when i've only hit 2/5 of my tagged POIs because i got into a rough fight with turned, distorted, devourer or what have you. need to heal up, pack mags, do both whatever. and after 2 or 3 of these cycles i'm already down 2/3rds of the raid. maybe it's a skilll issue, i won't deny the possibility. i'm bad at games, haven't had a lot of time recently to play and sink into practicing. i just wish there was more time, and that invisibles maybe wouldn't spawn next to you, or run straight up to you while you're trying to deal with the shit the last one did. or the last set of enemies did. otherwise love the game, love your work. please keep going!<3
I fully accept any criticism or bullying that comes my way. Just try to be constructive about it please?
TLDR; raid too short, want more time to look around and enjoy game. Invisibles too oppressive and make packing mags/meds annoying. Otherwise game good.
Edit: correction due to being high and forgetting what words I was using.
