It’s about time someone did this, creating a Q.O.L thread. Like any other game, it has its share of fun mechanics both inside and outside of the gameplay. The in-menu(?) chat with your friends, the replay function, and even the community built on interaction (e.g: twitch, Discord, the forums, etc…) all add onto the common players enjoyment when dealing with the game and the community surrounding it. However, amongst all of this good are a few glaring wrongs that should have, in all rights, been amended a long time ago. Here are my top ten gripes:
No Replay Slider
In the grand scheme of things;
“There is never enough time to do all the nothing you want” - Bill Waterson
If time is lacking why should we waste it on re-watching a match just because we had the impertinent desire to scratch our eyes at just the wrong time to do so. This runs especially true if by having to sit through the replay once more, you waste time that could be spent doing something productive such as queueing up your next Arcanyst Faie match-up game. I’m perturbed by the fact that the devs didn’t give us the option in the first place. But that’s just me.
There is no back button on replay page
—
Yet another one which should’ve been implemented beforehand. If they felt really generous then they could even allow us a skip to a page option like in those pirated manga websites (I’m looking at you mangafox). Having the option to go to the previous page without having to either exit into the menu or switch back to the replay section after going to a different section (e.g: faction levels, etc…). Once again, my time is sort of precious and i’d like to use it as I please.
##No deck save and copy option
A key part of the Duelyst experience is the process of deckbuilding. Whether you’re building your own deck or netdecking from online (which doesn’t really fit this conversation since we’re talking about something that helps the improvement of decks. something that you shouldn’t be doing if you plan on netdecking) you may find that you’re missing the use of a certain card(s) and might want to add them. You may be uncertain as to what the benefits of that card versus another may be, but ,seeing as we are currently unable to copy and paste decks as we please, you’d have to recreate the deck if you want to compare them (or you could just reset the deck based on your memory, but hey. Why make something harder than it needs to be?)
No preservation of text when chatting to a friend
I cannot tell you how many times I’ve had my messages deleted as I was composing them due to a match starting or someone sending me a challenge. I know that it’s fairly frustrating especially when it’s long, well composed, and took more than two seconds to make. Maybe I should start making them on google docs and then copy & pasting them onto the chat box, but that seems a little too inconvenient for my tastes.
##Having a faction vs faction indicator on your personal replays would be pretty useful.
Back to the (personal) replay section boys, what can I say? I use it often. Anyways, ever have a time where you’re playing the same faction over and over again and want to rewatch a game that happened some while ago, but couldn’t find it since you didn’t memorize the opponent’s name before entering the next 20 games? No? Well, I have and let me tell you, most of the time I get lucky and click the exact game that I want to rewatch so…yeah… The times where i’m not as lucky are still pretty annoying though!
in-game chat option outside of emotes
##No links to the other social media sites (e.g reddit, youtube, discord, etc…)
I’m not really sure if this is just me, but I’d prefer it if there was a link to the other social media sites included in…anywhere I guess. It’s not really a Q.o.L issue, but it’s just something that I found a little odd (the community togetherness isn’t an issue in my eyes so take it however you like)
##A how to forum guide (i.e: how to make forum groups, how do you get forum titles, etc…)
I always found it a little mysteries as to how some of the older accounts received titles like regular as opposed to our basic user statuses. Is it just some long forgotten mod privilege that no one uses or have the requirements never been met before? (I also think that some are just inside jokes like isbee’s archaeologist title, but meh). I’m pretty sure there’re a ton of other forgotten forum mod abilities that just haven’t been used often enough to ever be noticed (like how to add someone to a PM when they aren’t in the invited or how to make a forum group. Sounds like a job for the F.A.Q team @isbee) Any comments @Ryvirath?
##The lack of a back button on friend menu
Man there are a lot of back button issues In this list huh? When I go around looking at my friends profiles I don’t want to have to go through the menu screen too look at another account. It’s weird and I don’t like it. 
##Why no friend notifications when in deck crafting screen?
Deckbuilding can be hard and sometimes you want advise from a friend when making one. I’m sure that everyone wants help live rather than having it pre-made and stuff. After all, “Fresh, never frozen” is always the best right? Smug Wendy’s makes me want to eat Wendy’s. lol
Bonus:
Have previous bosses be available in solo challenge mode
The Bosses so far have been pretty cool right? So why deny any player the experience of playing against the ones they’ve missed? You don’t get anything special (that we know of) from each boss except for the box and even then, with each box having the same contents, there’s no real point in having the bosses disappear forever right? CP could just make a separate section in the Solo Challenges for the bosses, take away the rewards for them and then let the players have at it. Just imagine the stuff we could do with that… I’m sorry what? I spaced out there for a second…
Well, that’s me spent. What about you? Do you agrre with me as a whole? What points did you think were WRONG and why? Post them down below and I’m sure they’ll get a reaction…maybe…
Edit: I have no idea why some parts are completely bolded.
Edit Edit: Found it, turns out I didn’t have a line between one topic and the end of another causing the whole description to be made into title form.
