Is this game even worth playing anymore due to horrible mismanagement? (long post, don't open if you're not interested)

First let me congratulate you on doing more horizontal game content then I have the patience to do. As for all the issues you are listing, those are typically all the same issues that all MMO type games face at one point or another, more so in this game because this is also F2P instead of being paywall gated from the start. Due to the popularity of F2P games to drive people to try out a game they normally wouldn’t play, unfortunately these types of games will be in the rise in the future.

What kills most MMO’s in my experience is the lack of new content/updates and just getting to a never ending end game grind that gets you burned out from playing. Unfortunately this is also another issues that is shared across most games.

If you enjoy the game play more, if you don’t enjoy it as much, play less. If you get no enjoyment from playing/touching/seeing the game, then its time to move to another game to go through yet another honeymoon phrase. At the end of the day, games are here for our enjoyment and not a dead end job that we are a slave too.

See, this is the problem.
Cheaters ruin the economy, forcing people to grind way more than it’s supposed to be by design.

For example, I’m fine with playing like 10h a week total for just all the raids and some PvP, but that’s not achievable due to how daily grind works. And in order to fully keep up with the latest content, I have to do at least 2h of braindead daily grind every single day. Which most of us are burned out of. Noone is burned out of raids, but braindead chaos dungeons and guardian raids.

Rest system helps, but eventually even with it you lose out on way too much. It only works for people who have huge, 10+ character rosters. So they still play 4+ characters every single day.

I agree with you in everything. Plus, what’s in store for us? More legion raids? That’s the entire end game? Battles that get progressively more insane, that’s all? I do like raids, don’t get me wrong, but I can’t be excited for another weekly that’ll become a chore within a month its release =f

That’s just simply FOMO. First let me tell you what I do. I don’t do CD/GR and none of the daily/weekly grind anymore. I just do the things I like, which you mentioned, the Raids. Also on my alts I only do just Oreha Hard both, and Bus Argos. None of the daily/weekly on my Alts either.

Do have 0 feelings of being left out for any future content. I have 1 main in Vykas Hard, and the rest of my 5+ alts at 1370+.

Imagine to have alternate characters that require you to play them due to the lack of the content for ur main character :joy:

People will justify anything

lol i clicked just to see how long it was and yep didn’t read

At least you live up to your username.

Good read overall from some who obviously played the game. Truthfully, I agree with most of what you say. I’d say personally if anything has turned me away from the game, its more-so anything related to an AGS “Intelligent Business Decision”. Pass restrictions, gold restrictions, BOTS and RMT are just as punishing (If not more) to any current or new/returning player as they are to the issues they are supposed to solve. Typical AGS greed is also an issue that will probably lead to a huge dip in players (check region prices threads, they are quite hot right now). Solid read, I mostly agree. Game is good, business practices can be borderline illegal. Also forgot, proper feedback/communication is actually laughable (the reason I play the forums and not the game now). I wish I could say half the stuff we get from AGS to any of my clients, managers, supervisors, project leads, and not give them a stroke with the response.

for one it has a x10 better pity system than LA and content is not gatekept like AGS/smilegate. P2W in that game means there’s no bot issue because you’re actually guaranteed to get strong. Because LA has just a crap p2w bots run rampant. best of all you can play any weapon and class with your own custom avatar. no class gatekeeping nonsense or gender lock, but hey enjoy the abuse from AGS, i’ve been waiting for another MMO that’s run by a competent company and im glad we have a new one coming out in 4 days.

Did not read the essay about FOMO, game is awesome.

Perfect world? I used to play their original Perfect World “international”. Have fun, hope you enjoy their brand of the daily grind.

I mean its fine to disagree with me, I find the game awesome. I didn’t report your post btw, I never do, not worth my time. I dunno who did, I find it funny that you know nothing about me and have such bold claims like I ever bait. I do believe everything I say, including that the game is awesome and I’m having a lot of fun.

Yes there is a lot of exploitation of the economy, it makes things hard, especially for a solo character like mine, but I was done caring about this crap a long time ago because it was clear things weren’t going to change. I keep playing because legion raids are super fun, as are the guild activities. Have a nice day :slight_smile:

Bold claims when you know nothing about someone and whether they believe what they say :slight_smile:

When actions dealing with bots starts to affect the legitimate players, alarm bells should be going off at SG.

Well SG doesn’t have the bot issues like the ones we have with AGS NA version of the game. One major difference is that SG’s version of the game is limited to 5 accounts I believe tied to your national ID. While here, you have anyone with internet access able to open unlimited accounts. All the current “Fixes” are mainly for the benefit of AGS NA version.

Personally I find this game good, I spent 1400 hours on it with a big rush phase like most players to reach 1480 and make a 6 down roster. Now I can farm regularly for 2 to 3 hours by day without neglecting my IRL life. Thanks the rest system.

The botting and RMT issues didn’t spoil my gaming experience, with a few exceptions. I think to enjoy this game you have to play it lightly, and enjoy playing other games or spending time with your family.

If you’re bored take a break take a kit kat.

go collect mokokos, when you done uninstall

They cant do to us what they do in korea. Im pretty sure its illegal here. Russia they probably have a crazy strict lock on it too because laws are less of an issue.

Thats not it. This assumes they arent playing and running out of possible resourcez. The game itself is capped and so are in gsme rmt purchases (not to mention the delay now). Some people do all that, then dont want to wait til it all resets, so they go to 3rd party.
