Makes no sense at all. People don’t even blink when insulting others but dear bob you talk about a company that would never care about you. Turning an MMO into a single player game should not really be a goal.

On topic

*They are conducting research on how the westerners handle the release of ilvl 1700 content.

*Everyone’s honing mats have been halved to promote being less greedy. Mari’s shop now refreshes twice as fast.

*The clock has been moved back two hours in anticipation for the fall.

*A new currency has been introduced for betting on bot races.

Stoopz creates a video on how new World of Warcraft expansion respects your time.

JK hes laughing from his yacht at all the whales that bought his Lost Ark PR.

21

For the first point, I’d say like 30-50k actual players at max, rest are bots.

22

I predict, ill keep playing and saying AGS doesnt take care of such a good game.

23

They publish the preliminary results of their 10 month social engineering study based on the data they collected from New World and Lost Ark.

The results are inconclusive and will need more data and time and thank us for our continued patience…the end.

Will the bots carry us tho?! Because if that’s the case I’m eager for that to happen :joy:

It’ll be D2 all over again. Find a hammerdin bot for the night and just get all the loot.

26

Man I hope it doesn’t get that bad but I can’t say I’ll be surprised if this happens with their current lack of awareness in regards to what the Western audience will tolerate.

  • Persistent white knights will still be roaming the forums to defend, ad nauseam, ASG and the game even as it is burning (much like NW)
28

Future?

People still saying "it’s not THAT bad…"

Bots are no longer an interference, they are a feature.

Cash-Shop is more Pay-to-Win than ever.

Whales are dominating GvG and the Market.

Seeing a legit player is like spotting a Unicorn.

Me still grinding for 1370.

i kid.

You dont get it. There is a reason why players quit, if 90%+ of the playerbase leaves so fast, it means there is something seriously not okay with a game. Ofc. “100k players are enough to keep this game alive” You are right, but it doesnt change fact there are still reason why peoples quited in first place. These “100k” (50% will be bots if nothing changes) are the ones that just doesnt care how garbage game become, how much p2w etc it is.

31

if they let us dye our fuking skin i am good for now. Everyone looks same jeez

  • Valtan and/or another legion raid is out, honing to be able to unlock it is locked behind an intentionally frustrating gambling system just like now for Argos, people that swipe watch guides and clear it in an hour
  • same players go right back to forums and cry how game is too easy, there’s no content, AGS sucks, Korean version is better etc etc
  • bots stay winning, maybe AGS will take the PUBG genius idea of fighting bots with their own bots. Cheaters completely destroyed PUBG so the developers had the bright idea to add their own brain-dead AI bots to fill lobbies from all the players that quit lmao. Bring on JeffyBard the loveable support for all your queueing needs.

ill predict the future, i can see myself still playing LA :v

Since for fun, please don’t take seriously:

  • AGS is fired by Smilegate, whom has decided to self publish
  • Since Smilegate doesn’t want to associate with the Streamers that Amazon sponsored, they look to other “Popular” streamers, knowing very little about the Western streamers
  • Hololive is pretty popular, maybe we’ll get some VTuber streamers to sponsor to bring players in?
  • Admiral Bahroo and Bunny. Gif are hired
  • All hell breaks loose, there is no god, final straw, everyone but the bots leave
  • The sun is going down and it’s cold, the last server light fades to black.

Edit: If you’ve seen the latest Twitch drama, I hope this gives a chuckle.

I mean, of all predictions, this is probably the most accurate.

Wouldn’t be the first time Korean Developer did that. Altus and Persona 5 Royale anyone?
