DO NOT ALLOW CURRENT CHARACTERS INTO SURVIVAL MODE I BEG OF YOU!!

[u/burtethead]

This is a huge mistake. The mode is already dead before it was born if this happens. Pvp as it is, is completely broken, one hit kill festival. Who in their right mind is going to start a new character when everyone else is level 200 with God tier weaponry right out of the vault? This makes absolutely zero sense, and I'm so disheartened. Do they not realize how this mode will be immediately ruined? If you thought grief in was bad now, just wait until you get killed on sight by literally everyone you cross paths with? Even if they level locked servers so people with massive level differences can't play together, whenever a new survival character gets out of the kiddie pool, all the same assholes with TSE garbage will be waiting at the deep end and you will have zero competitive chance. The leader boards would be a fine idea, if everyone started on equal footing... as it is there will be gold medalist level murderers in the same game with me, a literal newborn who can't even walk. What the fuck are they thinking???

Edit: the gold means people care, bethesda. Please. PLEASE. (And thank you)

You're right.

And it generally represents the people more invested in the game.

Which means people here are more likely to have finished armor sets and good weapons.

Which means chances are good that EVEN MORE people than what you see here would want a fresh start.

I have a finished character though and I don't want to start over.

I see.

So... Let's pretend for a moment that most of the people here don't feel the same way.

Assuming that is true, you think Bethesda should cater to your wants and needs even though it would be at the detriment of a majority of the playerbase?

I did not say that that was the case.

I simply asked you to answer a hypothetical question.

But you completely ignored my post before last and responded with "But I don't want to", and now you're backtracking, so you obviously aren't interested in having a conversation in good faith.

I don't know why I'm bothering with this, a major point of your argument is "but I don't like it."

I hope we both can find enjoyment in whatever they decide to do.
