I dont understand why those hats need to have negative hp and why fireworks are removed. I really dont understand that logic of NGD (comparing to many other games).
First, if I want to wear santa hat instead of helm (with armor and bonuses it has), its my choice. As its written in suggestion article I posted, people like to look cool, and you should allow them. Looking "cool" in game is more satisfaction for players while playing a game, and more investing time and money in game.
Also, so what if New year event passed? Why cant I fire couple of fireworks when some of my friends graduate? Or when we do clan event? And why i cant wear party hat then and in fort war after grad, so all can know we are celebrating?
It s totally stupid limiting players in the name of some "realistic" game image. Sometimes I wonder who is making all those wrong steps in the name of NGD, cause it really doesn't understand players' needs. I see that NGD is trying to improve game, but they always make first wrong step and then hotfix for it after some time, when "damage" is done.
