[Discussion] Would GZW’s approach to PvE / PvP switching work for EFT?

I used to be a diehard PvP enjoyer, I played exclusively for PvP fights, skipping looting in favor of kills as soon as I could every wipe.

But real life has caught up to me and I can’t devote enough time to the game anymore to enjoy PvP the way I want to, can’t really compete anymore the way I used to. Sure, you can have some casual fun and Arena helps, but it still requires so much more time to get to a level of skills and gear that make endgame PvP really fun (imo obviously).

However, with both being mutually exclusive in EFT and PvE just being way too easy for a veteran, playing PvE really is jot an option for me:

I think the way it works in GZW is really awesome. Being able to farm up good gear in PvE and having the option to still engage with PvP when you feel like it is so nice.

Not being forced to stick with either is just such a smart design decision. It allows more casual players to try out PvP without much hassle and keeps both communities much more aligned, which is way better for player count / the longterm health of the game. It offers the best experience in total and the above to choose in this case is just an invaluable currency for Devs to trade in for the good will of your playerbase.

Do you think this could work in EFT? Or if you don’t think so, why not?
