Adding rifts for quick 10 minute adventures

You have just created not only a daily chore, but a p2w one too, where people will just run it with huge money investments until they get OP gear. And if you exclude the Embers from the system, you've just created an even bigger rift between the time-casual players you're trying to help and the hardcore bois who not only have time to constantly run the instance, but also the in-game money to invest into it and get the OP loots.

And if that dad of 20 kids, 10 dogs and 5 wives misses a day of a free chance to get great loot, he'll complain even more than he would've if there wasn't such a system in the first place, because the existence of such system means that the game is trying to appeal to him, which makes him feel entitled to things. And entitlement leads to complains.

You play for 15 mins a day - you're a casual with casual gear and casual gameplay. That's it.

It will all depend on whether they really want everyone to have one, no matter what. Freeholds will cost more and more with each new citizen, so unless a casual player has enough money early enough to outpace all the potential citizens - I doubt they'll be able to get a freehold.

You'll also have to pay property tax and who knows how much that will be, so 15min/d would most likely not be enough to support a freehold even if you do manage to get one. Though obviously we'll have to test this all out and see what Intrepid decides to do with casual property ownership.

Or at least that's how I understand the system right now.
