No. Terrible idea. I completely agree that it was unique and that has serious merit, but the problem in this case is that it's such a bad thing for humans to do, a thing we are legitimately not good at and that serves no useful purpose, that it is not fun nor should it be a focal point.

It had to be removed because it was too hard to do. It requires the wrong kind of serious focus and disenfranchises people with dyslexia or dysgraphia which is not something anyone wants to do. It ruins the fun of the game by punishing you for something that boils down to tedious over-correct code entry that's made completely irrelevant with something that basically everyone does as soon as they can anyway. Too many people were failing it and being frustrated about it without it having any payoff to be worth the trouble and that really did not have a great way to change other than going away.

Personally I hate that the "Delete very necessary info that you will have to run half way across the map to get again" button is half a millimeter from the "temporarily save this info because you can only use one drive at a time" button, but that is more what I think Nose was going for. Some of it has to be tedious or easily failable if you don't focus correctly, but it has to be the right kind of that or it won't feel like a challenge.

Based on what PRECISELY? The floppy disk system has several aspects that require monitoring over the long term and can cause odd issues, but in general the type of tediousness is better. The effects on gameplay are basically null and if anything it's better. If you're waiting on the request taking a step outside to look for berries or grab a nearby transformer is fairly reasonable and if you make the fairly cheap upgrades the time cost is negligible. Something like a third of the upgrade slots are already done so that's 24*2 =~ 50 --> 50*25=1250 for a total system upgrade which is nothing when you  build your frames early and or do basic farming to supplement food. You've also got a basically guaranteed 60pts per day as long as you remember to turn the tapes back on before you even bother with anything else.

The server minigames are more broken and the coordinates triangulation is more tedious and both are fine.


What is the issue here?
