First impressions, anyone?
The change isn't a big deal for me, because I ride Zwift for exercise when I can't ride outside, and the achievements are secondary. But I know, for a lot of people, chasing those badges or next level is huge.
I especially think how they're handling the transition to the new level is interesting. I'm not sure I totally understood it, but I think any amount of XP you have over the new level you're on will be applied to reduce the amount of XP you need to level up, reducing it by 20%. The amount of "extra" XP you start with determines how many levels will get that 20% bonus. At least, that's how I read it.
Despite what I said above, I sometimes feel like I'm sitting on a level forever. It doesn't really bother me, but it's also like, wow, still level 35, eh? And I would like to get the doughnut jersey, so that seemed like forever away. So requiring less XP to level up will be nice.
I think I'm the only subscriber to this community, but I thought I'd post this in the hopes to get some responses...
