General Feedback from a Dad Gamer... No complaining, ranting, etc. Just some plan old feedback.

Hi,

Hope GGG and everyone is having a good new year... I played and finished the latest season using the Witch. I Did great in my honest opinion, and it was mostly fun overall for me so wanted to give some good/bad from what I found to hopefully help vs. just seeing so many not productive things...

Here is how my season has gone:

Tried to use the sorceress and for some reason I just could not get past Jamanra. While I tried different things I just could not get over the line with sorceress which was VERY frustrating to me. I tried several times and not 100% sure it was the character or the one between the chair and the keyboard... Anyway, the most frustrating thing is that I was not sure what I was doing wrong or what exactly happened in the last few moments before I died each time so I could learn to improve a bit. Could there be a "playback" feature that we could turn on to allow us to "see" and get some detail on what we did just before death? Could GGG take that and give some "hey, if you just doge to the left instead of into the flames, that might work ;)". Just saying some feedback to me would made it a bit less fustrating... After tring this for several hours I just paused and said let me try the witch and... WHAT A DIFFERENCE For me...

While doing the witch it was SOOO much more fun and the abilities to use the characters and I just clicked (once again from the above person between keyboard and chair is the issue...) I was able to get all the way to mapping which I finally started using the witch and is fun for me. I was able to get past everything and was great (had some issues along the way, but was me vs. the game..) Just note, PLEASE do not nerf the witch, the character was wonderful and I am going to try the ranger next...

I did not really try Druid this time as I am mostly a caster / rogue (arrows) type player... While I did try it a little it looks great, please keep up the good work as the transitions were a WOW for me... Never have I seen that work so good in ANY game... Good job GGG!!!!

Now, for the temple... Yeah, Yeah... we all know the issues, problems, etc.. Let me just explain how I love/hate the temple:

1. Love the temple and being able to "design" it, hate that once I put it down I can never change it.

2. Love the diversity of room to choose, hate that I had soo many rooms to complete before being able to close the temple/complete the temple.

3. Love the challenges in almost all the rooms, hate that ALWAYS the room with two damn bosses killed me several times each run... This hate might just be a me thing... and was frustrating as hell though...

4. Love that you have to "earn" the temple to use it, hated that in the game it seem to have come up too much and interrupted my game play/flow to have to stop and do the temple? My hate here is that it is cool and did not really integrate well with the game as it is today? Maybe (sorry GGG) re-do it so that you earn a "stone" after 6 attempts and have to go some where once you have earned enough stones so you can store stones and THEN do the temple? One stone you get 6 rooms, 2 stones 12 rooms+2 bonus rooms, etc... That would flow much better for me during the game.

Overall, for an early access game, you are doing an amazing job on the game and adding soo much content... as for all the issues, I get it this is your "trial run" of the game and need to get all that feedback to help make it better for the "final" release. PLEASE do not let all the NEGATIVE feedback kill the game, remember the games' goal is to be FUN 1st, not frustrating (that could be a me thing so take it for what it is worth).

I am thankful that this game is NOT Diablo 4 (which I do like as well), as I need to do something a bit more challenging and this is it.

If you have further questions or concerns from anyone, please let me know.

Thanks.
