And I would like to see 1st Stage last obstacle be brutal like ANW did. How ANW do swings to Rope Ladder combining hard/brutal with time waster. No matter like it or not. It is better than the easy ones like Rope Climb and Lumberjack Climb)
I would like to see a 2-choices obstacle feature in 1st Stage similar to Split Decision used in ANW. Where you have to pick between two different obstacles during on course. You heard a similar one which is Crossroads from VIKING? It's also feature choices as opposed to a single, linear challenge, with those choices being Survival Flag (サバイバルフラッグ) and Survival Jump. Maybe wiki could find more information about it
