Wait so you can not enjoy the game - while i’m here ? That’s new.

I am here because I still have small spark of hope that they will modify half of the garbage systems this game has (they already got rid of the old skill level collection through gear [you had to collect skill levels that has been set in stone on gear pieces, and there was no system to collect or store these] - atleast that’s what I have been told).
There is plenty of stuff left that should’ve been straight up deleted or modified.

Also don’t worry about me - I will play what I like - once it’s out.
Unless they will manage to sort out 90% of the game issues before that in bot ark - which I doubt.

I don’t use fake number or google phone -___-

again, world of warcraft have bots and popular games have bots. whats stopping you from play this game… a bots? lol. and skills collection changed and it make it better you can grind it and put everything on skill level, you dont need to grind it again you wont lost skill collection. so whats stopping you from play this game?

Few reasons:

  • bots are infested in this game (at one point of the game we had 800k+ playerbase - which after bot banwave dropped to 250-300k, meaning we had at one point over 500k (half a million !) bots in the game)

  • broken economy due to the bots creating excess ammount of gold and people rmting (inflated prices / extreme ammount of gold needing for some pieces being artificially created due to the influx of gold)

  • system designed around playing multiple characters instead of one main character (they straight up limited your daily progress on one character to force you onto other alternate characters while introducing powerpasses [free and paid ones])

  • guardian raids / chaos dungeons being made to 2 runs per day instead of one

  • timed islands that “respects my time” (if I work at certain hours - there’s a possibility i will NEVER do some of the islands due to my working hours) - meaning I can not progress (skill points) nor I can finish my horizontal progression if I enjoy it

  • islands are not scaling with contesting players (haha imagine doing some islands with 5 or less players, wasting 20 minutes and being kicked out due to the lack of players ^^)

  • some of the REQUIRED content hidden behind extreme RNG (who thought about making extreme low %'s of drop rate on certain stuff that you must get in order to get extra skill points)

  • choosing weekly gold characters (why can’t I choose to play only 1 instead and get several drop rate on that 1 character weekly ? not everyone has time & virtual gold to invest into multiple characters in order to maximize gold earning potential).

  • toxic community & gatekeeping (god forbid if you choose something out of meta, people can gatekeep you for anything, one bad stat, bad engraving, lack of engraving, even the class you play itself !) ; on that note I would also add morons that follow up their korean streamer gods and drink their p1ss straight to their mouth. (I remember huge grudge discussion early on in the game, as some people tried to defend it as their life was at stake)

  • lack of pvp balance (we have PvP description for skills - too bad it has exactly same effect as the pve ones… ; why would I need stagger in pvp - wtf ?)

  • sailing through islands (i’m a big advocate of teleporting to the zones you have once discovered instead)

  • lack of the global chat / guild chats being basically dead (there is no working chat system in the game, how do we communicate with others ? we don’t - people are busy doing their ‘homework’ on 6 characters they can get gold with…) ; people even use 3rd party softwares such as discord instead (how can a crappy old mmo’s work better - and can easily communicate in chat while in lost ark “mmo” you literally dont see anyone typing anything)

  • too many servers & regions spread out (why would we need that many servers ? with current ammount of concurrent users it creates less than 1k player per server !!! - it’s less than ammount of players in freaking private server of old games)

  • lack of wall of shame / lack of communication (we should shame RMTers / botters and create pure list of people that got banned) (patch notes comes few hours before maintenance - lul wat?) (the patch notes can usually be used to - but at this point some of the changes are really important and we used to get infromation really late.)

There could be probably way more stuff that there is so wrong in this game (I haven’t even touched pay 2 win aspect of the game, or enhance pity systems at all). These were the ones that annoyed me early on - and I remember them pretty well.

bots doesnt ruin your fun.most bots are in t-t2. its impossible for them reach to t3… wow sure have 300k or more bots in this game. there’s no surprise.
“broke economy” you still struck in last year mentality. everything lower than last year now. the legendary books cost less than 3k gold. that which was 20k gold.
i have only three characters already1445- 1490ilvl i dont have another alts. you just grind gears to sell them for golds and you can play 6 characters to get gold from legion raid and abyssal raid or argo. that which you can get about more than 20k gold a week RNG in every games.
last year people know nothing about grudge. grudge is usefull to boost dps classes damage. now people realized and will invite you wirh grudge wirh dps class.
we have more than 10k players to play this game and most of us in t3 and we able find a party quickly without problem.

RMters are few very few. mostly you see it in market mostly same price. so it dont hurt you.

we used to have too many guilds with 100 members. so we cuts guilds so now less than 20 guilds that are active players
you can leave the party and get ticket for free to enter legion raid again

for months bots ruined our economy with artisan stuff… now we finally can make more gold than usual !

I tried to sold 2 legendary book at the lowest price… they returned in my mail box coz no one bought it

I had to make a valtan HM ! yeah… I don’t play the game… I just buy bus for diz beggar buser with their “NO BID ON BOOK” but soon this book will be so cheap and finally they will start to make “free bid” coz they won’t find any customers (HOW IRONIC)

btw… for month I buy bus and I was the only alive at the ghost phase… that was funny !

once I’m done with LOS I’ll quit the game… that’s my last achievement ! still need 6 cards and I’m done ! I know some veterans who are not even close… and I’m free to play ofc ! just like diz veteran bragging their are f2p when they bought that founder pack at 100$ with 10k blue cristals ! kekw

i only sold 5 deathblow legendary books for each 3k last friday without problem. you problay try sell trash legenday books. you should sell gruge and class books. you will sold them quickly.

The game is not dead, you can find parties for the latest content but definitely dying.
Dont let yourself fool by SteamDB. Every new “player” is just another bot while the real players stop playing.
And there is no cross region, so that number is divided by 5. (more like 4 because EUW is dead)

ok pro ! taijutsu at 3k gold is trash :joy: and deathblow at 3k ? dude… that’s even cheaper when the first and second frog was there… ALLO !!!

smh… 5 deathblow at 3k gold… you could barely buy 2 with 15K gold a few weeks ago

frog made legendary book price dropped. now it back to normal price because frog event is gone. you go look it up now it sell 3k now. i said it 3k each of 5. but you make a lot gold from legion raid anyways. i made 50k gold last week. so cant wait esther come out and i can sell it for millions thats great profile for us f2p players and i plan to sell 9lvl for 200k gold this week

In the last month many of my friend has stopped with the game because of gold nerf or got bored, felt that the game is theirs second job, many static group got destroyed what made more quit, so it is what it is.
In the future we will get more of these reasons, so yeah, the game stepped onto the road what will lead to die.

Well u literaly didint understand how to play LA. (Yes u can play only 1 Char) But the main point is to play more Chars.

Its boring AF to play only 1 Char. Thats why LA is unique in this way.

U can do CD / GR dayli / U can do CD dayli & GR Rested / U Can do CD & GR Rested / U can split Chars so 1-2 Chars day 1 3-4 Chars Day2 etc etc. So many ways people stil cant figur out cuz of “imagen Fomo”.

Other MMOs have this System too like World Bosses that Spawn on Certain Time. Oh Wait u dont like it. And your loveley D4 World Boss have Spawn times too.

All the Skill points are not Hard to get. If u are not even playing no wonder u are missing some.

U can play only 1 Char more are Optional. I know alot of People already 1560 with less then 6 chars without spending a penny.

Cant figur out right?

MMO Pubing in a Nutshell. If u dont like it. U need to search friends/guild. Oh wait u cant find friends. If u dont play the game anyways.

Thats oke. Not every game need to have the same things. U lazy.

U pub only. U cant comunicate with people. Cuz u dont have any. Back in the day we used TeamSpeak. Discord is nice. If u are shy its oke. Dont worry.

Every MMO put there Patchnotes after release. LA does it 1 day bevor.

Just look what Korea have. And u can literaly assume what is coming next. U lazy.

I bought deathblow at 5k gold when frog was there… I regret it coz I should knew with that gold nerf will lose so many players and get it at a lower price… it exactly what’s happening right now !! you started the game last week ? normal price for deathblow is over 8k gold

Dont forget many people hold all the Frog Books. Now comes the weeks everyone wana try to sell them.

I have for exampel 12 grudge / 5 keens / 5 cursed and so on…

nah it was deathblow was sold 800- 1k while frog event. i was going to sell deathblow and saw 800 to 1k gold i was like nah i gonna wait till frog event gone nah i have been play this game since game released

well ! you must be in NA coz in EUC it never droped at this price

really? why not the price dropp while frog event? or there s few players in that game?

What are 2-3 world bosses against 100+ timed islands ?

That’s more likely bad design if you can’t communicate with people in game
Thanks for confirming

What ?

  • SUN / EoS / Metin / ToS / SW ← check any of these that are still ongoing and repeat it.

Presents well as picture of lost ark community.
