Horizontal content is basically things to do besides leveling farming or bossing, such as pvp, collecting chickens, etc

Horizontal Change would probably be referring to "Horizontal Content"

In MMOs there are two basic types of content: Vertical and Horizontal.

To put it simply Vertical would be your levelling of your character / gaining loot etc

Horizontal would be your non linear progression through other systems such as Pets, Class Based Attributes, Crafting, Fishing etc


XP Balancing is based on XP curve progressions in gaming.

Games usually have a hidden away graph that would show the average progression of a character and how much XP would be required for each level.

Usually the curve starts off small and gets higher as you progress.

Balancing that would be altering the key balancing of the game to make the curve less steep and easier to progress though.


Hopefully all that made sense as it is getting late here

This is the curve that OTM uses

Lmao at that graph I hope that's not how it is

Okay, i get it now thank you.

Either more xp per mob or less xp required to lvl up.

Horizontal Content are features in the game where you can spend your money on besides lix and idols.

Except for the part where lixes and idols are necessary in every part of the game involving combat
