    Because I enjoy other aspects of the game despite there being bad design choices that yet linger.

    Hyperbole much? If having to sit on your ass waiting for the spawn point to repop is what gives you a sense of accomplishment, then you need to re-evaluate your priorities, both in-game and in life.

    Yes, it is time consuming, boring and adds absolutely nothing to the gaming experience. It is bad game design. Give me a reason to believe it is anything other than bad game design.

    Really? Because in my line of work, I have to sit around and take care of paper work, finish up training courses so I can pass certification test, and a slew of other stuff within the office while waiting on my clients to show up in life.

    In game, I talk to friends, kill surrounding enemies, do something else or kill time while farming/camping NMs for whatever, or even take care of in life stuff, like eating, shitting, looking at tv, maybe clean up something. You know, things that should take priority over the game. It's really simple, find something else to do with the time.

    It's an MMO, it's design to be time consuming because it's meant to be a second identity to life in a fantasy world. That sounds like a bad argument that people use not to craft.

    But you know what, I concede. It's bound to happen in a SEA revival anyway, whatever.
