NM Districts - Most Liked? Least Liked?

Tough question. They're all so vapid.

Getting Swallowed by the Duneripper is one of the best things to come out of the Parch. I still get a huge kick out of that😎 I hope we get monsters like this in Overland.

There is something charming about all of the districts. I really like the way they were all designed to be unique and different from each other.

It is!

And it's so sneaky! I've thought that I've outsmarted it a bunch of times and then it pops up from some weird angle and OM NOM NOMs me.

Well, it's difficult to say – visually, I like Parch the best, but I hate it because of the sand walls (no, I haven't got the relic from that district yet) and because the two rooftop oases are so far apart, and you sometimes get arbitrarily teleported to the other side of the map especially annoying when you actually have something to do on the other side. You quickly loose random groups because of that. The Parch would need some more rooftop oases.

I don't really have strong preference for one district over the others, but my biggest issue with The Parch is the map design. The other two areas can be traversed relatively easily, but the Parch is basically 2 areas with a giant void in between them. Otherwise, I don't really think there's much difference between them.

I like the skittering because I enjoy the grappling mechanic, and because even without the relic it's the easiest to navigate.

Going in the other two without the relic is painful.

I didn't like the pizza place. not enough sauce and the skimped on toppings.

I like Skittering not because of the spiders, but because the relic you get helps you the most to traverse the area, and opens up the zone on the rooftops, which could be expanded. Tbh, I would like to access the rooftops on all zones, I don't see why not, and make the other relics useful in the other two areas.

I don't like that in the Sorrow you can jump from a portal safe zone to a dark area and die instantly. That should be fixed.

A lot of friction could be decreased by allowing to teleport to a portal rooftop, especially when grouped and wanting to join the group, rather than die&res.

The Perch is difficult to navigate. Maybe if you could portal between portal rooftops... I don't know, but the big desert in the middle should be easier to traverse once you get the relic or some quests done. I don't like the duneripper boss... I think it's the least interesting fight.

Parch is the easiest to get around and I do like the gimmick of getting eaten by the giant Duneripper even if it is occasionally inconvenient. The other two zone bosses just show up, making them feel less epic.

The killing shadow sections of Sorrow’s Friend are easy to overlook until they start killing you, making it tedious.
