So, they think that wasting about 25% of our time and resources is not malicious and does not slow our enjoyment while searching for gnomes and using paloozas? There are now soft-lock problems, which are worse than the cliffy errors we used to get. We were skipping animations because we knew that it would be bad. And from my own experience, I confirmed it for myself. It is bad. Really, **really** bad. And nothing will be done, and they do not care. Fantastic.

Yeah. They can keep dreaming. Because they have no idea of the horrible experience they created. They added more stress to the servers with animations when all they had to do was just add more difficulty options to the old version of Explore that had **No** animations. No other game mode besides Explore has animations between battles, so there are hardly any problems. Keep it simple. This is not hard.

Whoever thinks that Explore is now an enjoyable experience does not take this game seriously, does not care, or does not understand the gravity of what is being wasted.

Maybe they can pause the timer so that it stops in-between battles or something else, but the damage is already done. Vault weekends are completely ruined.🤦‍♂️
