I hate reviving topics but I just have this one thing on my mind.

There seems to be a rising trend of more complex levels. Is it because jj2 players are finding it easier to learn layouts? Oddly, most layouts of old (levels that were considered good at their time) levels are fairly complicated and are considered bad by todays standards, or at least they were until now. As long as I've known, ease to learn has been an essential standard, albiet a limiting one as you can only put so much into a level. However, there seems to be a trend where you just have to play long enough to learn the level. I guess we are finally learning to be patient! or something like that.

I support this change, even though it may be frustrating to learn a complex layout, in say, a JDC event.
