Exodus, my take
(Disclaimer: I wrote this entire post myself, but used an LLM to clean up and polish my English before posting.)
Hey everyone,
If you look at my comment history, you'll see I’ve had my fair share of criticisms regarding Exodus. However, I wanted to make this post to share my actual experience because, despite those critiques, I truly believe this server deserves more players.
Here is why I think it's worth checking out:
- Strictly No P2W / V2W: It is one of the very few servers where the owner (Shahar) promised it wouldn't be Pay-to-Win or Vote-to-Win, and actually delivered. Everything you can get from donating or voting is purely cosmetic, which keeps everyone on a completely level playing field. I honestly don't see that changing.
- Active Owner: Shahar has been incredibly proactive. He’s constantly fixing bugs reported by the community and actively engaging with almost every suggestion that pops up, which is amazing to see.
- No HP Washing: HP washing is non-existent here, which is an absolute godsend.
- Great Leveling & Social Experience: The leveling experience has been great. I’ve been playing with a bunch of IRL friends—we formed our own guild, and we've been questing, grinding, and helping each other progress through the game. On top of that, the community is incredibly helpful; if you smega asking for help or ask for anything on Discord, someone will 100% reach out to assist you.
- Clean Environment: From what I've seen, there are no hackers or botters. Now, since I mostly play with my group of friends, it's possible I just haven't run into them, but it’s still incredibly refreshing to see a clean server.
A few things to note: As for class balance, it feels okay to me, but I can't comment too deeply on that since I don't have extensive knowledge of how unbalanced they were before the recent changes.
I do hope we see more areas, bosses, and maps added to the game in the future just to have more diversity in content, and I'm optimistic that it will eventually come. I have no idea what the long-term roadmap looks like or how long Shahar plans to keep the server up, but it is definitely fun for what it is right now.
The team honestly deserves a bigger player base. If you're looking for a fun, fair, and casual server to play on, I highly recommend giving it a shot! Would love to see you in-game and see this community grow.
