It took me 35 minutes of monotonous clicking to bond with my familiars today and I'm not even sure I didn't miss any. I feel like this could be better.
To me, there are 2 main problems with the current familiar bonding system:
What if, instead of the current system, we had a "Menagerie" page that was like a lair for familiars? If you put a button under each familiar's picture on the grid that we could click on to bond with the familiar, that would streamline the bonding process by a lot. Having the button display as deactivated if the familiar has already been bonded with would also do a lot to cut down on the confusion and frustration.
To me, there are 2 main problems with the current familiar bonding system:
- Between visiting profile pages, changing familiars, and actually bonding with the familiars, you have to click twice per familiar. Three times if you count the pop-up. This doesn't seem like much, but it adds up quickly when you have many familiars, especially since each click loads or reloads an entire page.
- It's hard to keep track of which familiars already been bonded with. At best, this is a minor nuisance. At worst, it can make things downright infuriating. It also basically forces you to bond with all familiars in a single sitting by making picking up where you left off needlessly difficult.
