I just created another character after a long while and I think the early game is pretty good... late game is too much of a chore for me and I don't see the point of losing so much work...

so my idea is just for the devs to show nomads some love, this is the early game that new players will face... keep making the nomad life a fun alternative, that would appeal to a lot of casual players like me, and new players would benefit too...

If you are saying, make travelling trough the world (adventuring) more fun then i agree with you!
Add landmarks like a monument valley, the ocasional stone circle and such, hidden old chest with some random stuff in it and so on.
Right now im just travelling around on my nomad alt biling up with berries and such, setting up a leanto then doing the same over and over again.
And i tell you, it's not fun if all thats gonna happen is the same as last time.

+1 to giving travelling and exploring more interest

What are you suggestions? Devs are adding more content each patch.

Ultimately this is one of those player created things. You can add fun by mapping, taking screenshots of weird biomes, raiding abandoned bases, etc, writing a fictionalized journal and posting it on the forums, etc. etc. Otherwise I don't see it getting much love other than as a byproduct of other areas getting focus.

With a 1 in a million chance ofcourse.

If you found it more than this it wouldn't be fun to look for it.

It's not fun to look for BECAUSE it is so rare.
Some of us dont have 10 hours a day to spend running around in a video game looking for a reason to why you are actually running around in a video game.

Yes it is.

If you don't like exploring for the sake of exploring or the chance of finding something few others have then find a different play style. Also with horses it really does not take that long to find some interesting things.

Show me some examples in screenshots and i will believe you.
So far its just trying to prove me wrong with no evidence whatsoever.

I agree that this is mostly based on playstyle in finding the fun of being nomadic. There are things we'd like to do to keep exploration fun, some of which are in the works as I type and some that will be added eventually.
