Massively increasing player agency.

Decisions matter. Being stupid or lazy means you lose. Being smart and proactive makes you win. No longer ‘everyone gets a medal’. Stop moddycoddling pve in the name of new players.

Lower barriers to pvp such that new players (and players in general) can hunt older players. Give new players opportunity to f_ck sh_t up and be the villain. Enable rivalries to form between players by allowing foul play.
