My theory on why they updated blight

the reason on why they optimized his colission detection is as follows:

They have begun working on the last realm that needs an update, swamp. and as you might know, playing blight on swamp is like trying to hold a warm piece of butter with soaped up hands. so working on it they realized they needed to update his collision so it works better.

or maybe im just delusional and desperate since im waiting on a swamp update for 2 years now.

you decide.

    I really would not call it optimized… Before you had some form of control on whether you wanted to bump or not, now you just bump… That's not optimizing, that's dumbing down mechanics to make them more player friendly for newer players, but limiting experienced ones at the same time.

    Also if the wanted to rework the realm, why could they not just redo the collision of objects? It has been more than just visual reworks, so redoing the collision is probably a given, therefore I don't think you are correct there.

    His new collision is honestly awful

    I suspect the swamp update was held until last because of their upcoming Project T game, which is set in the Backwater swamp. It'll probably look the same in both games so they'll release the update when Project T releases. That's my theory anyway. But re Blight, it's possible of course.
