Imagine I told you, "You must live at this location for a year or more."

Now imagine that you agree to this.

The location is maximum, 50 meters across.

Now imagine that I fill most of that 50 meters with an object hat occupies the middle of it. 

Essentially, confining you to a donut.

Further, imagine that all of your donus choices are in poop colored lands or black caverns. 

Now imagine what that does to your mood. 

And desire to keep doing this. 

PLEASE:
Remove totems from the game. Place instead something like a light projection on the ground.

Or when the combat starts have the totem collapse into itself and FLOAT ABOVE THE ARENA SPACE.

You've done this since the launch of the games with Rhutums and Soldiers' Grave.

You make some neat thing to do.

Then throw it in the most ugly place imaginable.

Then throw ground clutter into the area to make it miserable.

Stop. 

Fix this and stop it.

So, go try Honglim Base, it's not an "ugly spot".

Dokkebi Forest also, but it's dark there, so you'll probably be unhappy.
