Sigh. I do not disagree on anything you said... I want you to answer easy questions vs giving me a summary no one asked for.
1Q) What do you think about the system we have for upgrades?
1You) You could say fine here Idk I'm not you.
1Me) For me personally I don't really care. Got all the things I want just about and it got to the point long ago I am wanting stuff I don't even use.
2Q) What does this wait do to people and how does it benefit Ni or hinder it?
2You) You could say nothing here Idk I'm not you.
2me) I think the [wait] is just preventing inevitable most of the time. If you work hard enough to get that gold and the mats ready most of the time people don't turn back on a costly decision like that.
3Q) What is the reason to have it random when it could just be timed or something else?
3You) You could say you are fine with [random] but make rules so it can take control of the outliers [Like Zephyr].
3Me) I see little reasons why it should be random when an order or at least a list of what's coming next. This would be more pleasing to crafters or at least me. Being able to look into the future and "I've got 3 months to get all the items ready" would have been less stress on me as on the 1st year of upgrades I craft just about all 12 rounds and a lot of times more than once.
I think I did have 1 round off and to see that coming would have been great and the same could be said when I did craft 3 things in 1 round.
The point is it wouldn't be that hard to set up all the future rounds for 2020 and post them so people can see. If anything then people can comment on it and say "Why do I need to wait almost a year".
4Q) At a minimum, the wait to be able to craft anything should not be any more than half a year? (yes or no)
4You) Yes?
4Me) Maybe even less than half a year. To the point, you don't need to wait to be able to craft it. If you have stuff ready I see no reason why you should need to wait any longer.
