Talk:Dual Universe Wiki/editcopy/Section 2

This page is now entirely reorganized. I've put the basic informations any new comer would need to understand DU in the General Information section. And I've put more advanced informations in the 2nd section.

Please tell me what you think about it. Do you see any links that should be or not to be on this main page ? Elildar (talk) 15:01, 27 August 2017 (UTC)

Overall, I like it. There's just a few minor changes I'd make. I've already updated a couple sections to improve readability. I took "Dual Universe" out of a couple headers because this is the DU wiki, so obviously that's what these links are about. I also added some plurals in other sections. Most are debatable, but I really think we need it to read "Constructs" not "Construct" in links (the title of the actual page can stay the same) because when people read the word "construct" they think about the process of building, not about space ships or vehicles. So, to avoid confusing "construct" with the building process, it should stay "Constructs."

My only remaining criticism is that I'm not sure the link to the archives and Dev blogs should go in the "Getting Started"section. Dev blogs aren't really the best way to present the game to new players as they talk about granular systems or hypotheticals, not necessarily broader features of the game or it's merits. Instead, perhaps include some links to a "What is Dual Universe?" page, with youtube videos explaining and advertising the game. Vorengard (talk) 17:31, 27 August 2017 (UTC)Vorengard

I agree with your 1st paragraph. About the archives and dev blogs, I think it's a good way to discover DU. Myself, I started by the frequent questions and videos, then I've read all the dev blogs, then some of the interviews. It's an incremental level of discovery, and everyone is free to stop when he pleased. We still could change the "Getting Started" title or the archive page title with something more appropriate. About the "What is Dual Universe?" page, it is already in the 1st section of the main page, and the videos on the 3rd.Elildar (talk) 20:04, 27 August 2017 (UTC)
