Hi, all! I've never posted a topic before so bear with me. I had a quick look through the boards but didn't find a topic like this, so maybe I'm the only one who's bothered by it, but here goes anyway, haha.

Lioden is pretty much the only game I play actively and my favourite feature is the Explore; especially visiting and unlocking new areas. However, since I consider myself more of a "casual player" and don't go on the game 24/7, it's hard to unlock new areas.

I'm on my fourth lion now and the furthest I've come is the Arid Desert, which only happened because I got some extra years on my previous king through an event. I absolutely don't mind having to level up my lion and start over on impression level and lower stats, but it's very disappointing to have to go back to only having a couple of areas to explore. I love Lioden, but this function is making me lose interest in the game... :C It feels like all the work put into levelling up to go to new places was for nothing, so what's the point? (Wouldn't it also make sense for the new king to "inherit" the previous king's "territory" and be able to go to the places he's been?)

So, my suggestion is simply this: once you've unlocked an area, it will stay permanently unlocked, regardless of when you go down to level 1 again.

Alternatively: lower the level requirements for unlocking new areas.

Alternatively: make it easier to level up. Especially with the new, more challenging battle system it'll be harder to gain EXP, so levelling up will take longer.

Thank you for your time!
