The pen may be mighier than the sword but the shovel is mightier than the pen.
Yeah, definitely. It's annoying and the "realism" it adds seems kinda ironic since Mabinogi is a second person perspective game. The camera is far above the character, so why is the "audience" subjected to the annoying glare.
There will always be complaints that race X is too weak, or not as good as race Y. Nexon makes an adjustment and then it's that race Y is too weak, or not as good as race X. While the game races are different they will not be equal at facing challenges; one will always have an advantage. With regards to fighting, this will become apparent among the elite PvPers as they will sus out, fairly quickly, which race is best at one-on-one.
Nexon has tried to address this by making races specialists as various parts of combat: the tank guys, the DD guys, the auxiliaries. WoWc succeeds at this because these rolls are base on character class rather than character race, but Mabinogi doesn't use character classes. Don't misunderstand me, this is good that we don't have character classes but the result is that differences are based on race. The thing is, parts of combat specialists do not make equals when it comes to lone-wolfing or PvP and hense people beach about inequality.
Nexon could try to address this by making specialisation more coarse: fighting race, crafting race, music(?) race, and so on. The thing is this would not be well received either. What if you like crafting but, overnight after applying the change, find yourself stuck with a fighting race.
The real solution is to allow race change then, whatever they choose to do, or not, doesn't matter. If some new race is better you can just switch over, taking most of your progress with you; everybody wins.
Yep, it should be a total and complete segregation of the two players. A lot of us can handle such things, most of the time, but, since Mabinogi is free-to-play, you get a lot of "delicate" people playing this game and if they aren't comfortable they'll leave; that's not good.
