Expedition: general discussions.

Ment seems to have a personal grudge because the fantastic training bonuses from his bracelet were nerfed.

How is the experience reduction related to the bracelet? And I can't say that it's upsetting to me personally, for a very simple reason: from a gameplay perspective, this system was more successful than not. Perhaps not ideal, but rewarding its appeal was probably worth considering. Although the reward in the form of increased attention from the opposite sex was already quite noticeable, but it didn't suit everyone for role-playing, and not everyone benefited from it.
As for the character, yes, it was a bit sad at the time. From a gameplay perspective, it's good because crises are necessary. But no one likes those who are the cause of these crises, which is logical :D
