If there is a real problem for some people with how detailed the update notes used to be, the solution is to use something like our "spoilers": put the highlights in the main body of the notes, with buttons for "read more..." that cause more text to expand in-place.
Something like this:
I don't know HTML but I can't imagine this would be too hard to implement.
That way, those who want condensed notes will leave the detailed sections hidden, but those who want all the info at once will expand them all and leave them that way.
If they absolutely can't do it, then they should at least put in a link to the specific event's detailed web notice. I don't like that solution because I like to keep the Update Notes open in a tab in my browser all the time, and CTRL+F anything I need to look up instantly. If I have to start opening a bunch of tabs and searching for the right one for each bit of content, it'd be a hassle. But links would still be better than nothing. Their website is a pain to find anything in, and while our Nexon Announcements section shows more at a glance, it can get swamped and have events that are still active fall off the first page.
Of course, all that is assuming they could write the entire update notes in detail in time, and the only reason they didn't is to spare us the detail overload we've apparently been complaining about
Something like this:
Example Wrote:New Content 1 Title
- main
- points
- for
- skimmers
Further details
Event 2 Title
- main
- points
- for
- skimmers
Further details
