I agree. I haven't been on in several days because of this change, and I used to play a minimum of 4 -6 hours everyday. Combined with the whole Boss Battle problem and lack of new quests, I don't plan to continue.

A few weeks after the game launched i was thinking to upgrade my account
in Potco to annual membership but now i don't think i will continue.
I played Potco since Beta phase 1 and had great expectations
for this game but it seems that everything just getting worse.
So many of my friends are already bored because of no boss battle and
the only thing to do is leveling up weapons which is not fun anymore.
Is there any creative person among the devs there?
Why did they make this game soo boring to us even before we maxed anything?
One of my friend said this game is Beta phase 3 but now we have to pay for it.

I don't like this either. If you get my account messed up, you will be hearing from me!

I don't pay anyway, so its not fair for me to criticize your feelings on this topic...

so I will just add my thoughts on the matter:

1. I have absolutely no problem avoiding any "creature" that I do not want to fight.
2. Every now and then I am attacked by other "lesser" creatures in battle and it doesn't annoy me.
3. I think the fact that every "creature" regardless of its level can attack and inflict even the smallest damage, is more "realistic".
4. Realism also dictates that as you grow stronger and more powerful, you become a bigger target and attract more attention and attacks.
5. The game has become more "challenging" but not any more difficult.
6. I am happy that the game has evolved in this manner to keep me challenged and not stagnated (now that I have completed the original Quest).

7. I do however, not like the extremely low or non-existent rep point reward from the lower level "creatures".
If something can attack me and inflict damage, I should be properly rewarded for defeating it. (1 point or 0 point is not a reward!)

AND

yes! I agree that the game was launched prematurely, with too many problems and unfinished areas, the Boss Battle delay is a ridiculous and unacceptable problem and there should have been further adventures or quests by now (for those who have been waiting patiently for more)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Disney(?) you have dropped the ball, big time!!, on this one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree I think the change just annoys (and meant to prevent) the macropeople who expect not to get damaged.

But yes, releasing the game with the main quest unfinished wasn't too smart. I guess they dramatically overestimated how long it would take people to get to the end. I played rather casually and it took me a little over a month.

This is my major gripe with it. I mean, it really sucks being ganged up on by a bunch of low levels and getting my health severely depleted (some of those level 3 and 4s do some pretty big dmg, and a group of them can be hazardous!) when I'm going after something bigger, but the fact that I get _NOTHING_ for defeating them?!?! That just irks me something fierce.
