he basically dun goof'd and made it into pretty much the same thing as the rest of the ironman modes but it was unnecessarily grindy and the same as the other modes and then he released hardcore ironman mode right after it so people went to go play that mode and quit hard mode since hardcore ironman was "newer" and more fresh

hard mode becoming a little more activate again is due to a couple of things, but id even theorize that it has to do with many people dying on their hardcore ironman accounts and losing their symbols and going back to hard mode coupled with the buff to make drops easier

btw u still havent actually given any actual tangible reasons or facts for why reverting the change is a good thing, the only thing we've observed so far is the mode had almost no players the way it was prior to the change and the only thing u seem to be typing is "hard mode is too ez omegalul"

edit: basically ur playing hard mode wrong it was supposed to be a toned down mode of normal mode with an interactive economy and pvp where the loot mattered but it just turned into solo ironman mode with a different symbol and some exp rate / drop rate adjustments and owner here is stubborn so i would give up with this suggestion
Why are you so negative all the time? you need help.

it was never "same as the other modes" hards had access to less gear than any other account

hc's dying may be a factor in players going back to hard-mode, but not choosing hard mode in the first place which is what I said

I would say making HARD mode, actually the HARD mode again, would be a good reason to, you know, what with the definition of HARD being what it is

but the only thing you seem to be typing is "TROLOLOLO im a dickhead who likes spewing nonsensical hate-speech while hiding behind a name I only use for forums"

do me a favour and gimme ur ign so i can do my sanity a favour and just ignore you now
