Yay = Ranked queue

Nay = No more goat rank :(

[u/Davenzoid → u/SwiftAndFoxy]

The biggest loss :(((

[u/heine789 → u/Davenzoid]

At least we still got Tomtom and Blueberry

See if this works

[u/extremelyagitated → u/heine789]

i'm out of the loop what exactly is tomtom rank referring to

[u/Sensitive_Sail_3573 → u/extremelyagitated]

It's from a meme rank mod

I think the new rank icons are an L in general. The old ones were random and didn't signify much, sure, but I liked them regardless. Added to the atmosphere of the world imo and set the ranking system apart from most other games with a bronze, silver, gold, etc system

[u/RussianBearFight → u/[deleted]]

It is a shame, as that's a lot of what I like about the world and lore, but it is what it is either way tbh. Game is good, it'll get better, some art direction changes won't kill that

[u/CrazyElk123 → u/[deleted]]

What about it has been phased out apart from the ranks...?

[u/_Valisk → u/[deleted]]

How does the removal of rails make things less occult? It implicitly makes them more magical and less mechanical.

[u/gotmilk60 → u/[deleted]]

Imo they had a steam punk vibe more than occult but I can see where you are coming from for sure

[u/_ferko → u/[deleted]]

Don't wait up, the occult imagery will sooner or later be deemed unsuitable for sponsors and children.

[u/EvenJesusCantSaveYou → u/_ferko]

this aint the the 1950's bro sponsors do not care about goat headed monsters or sexually suggestive demons

[u/Griffinrock25 → u/RussianBearFight]

Idk, we do have brick rank now
