Adaberk, ridill, okay I could understand. But a Haidate? 3 years for a haidate?! Did you not have a LS or something? I remember my sky LS was an all BST/SMN LS back then and we got Haidates for everyone in a short amount of time. It was fun... everyone would know about our LS as it was the only BST/SMN only LS in the server.
I guess the people having a negative view about the game is just because they had negative experiences that they couldn't get over with. >.>
In the end I did get the Adaberk as soon as they made Nidhogg popped. I never complained about not being able to have an Adaberk as only top HNM LSs did, I worked with what I had. When I finally got it it was pretty sick! Used it for a long long time. I also never got a relic nor mythic, only 2 Empyreans. I never once complained about not being able to get a shiny toy because it took a long time and resources. I applauded those who managed to go through all that work. Still loved the game for what it was, it never affected my view on it. *shrugs*
I also managed to gear my favourite jobs equally, aside from the empy weapons, even if there were lockouts, because they stayed relevant for a long time and the game had a lot of variety in end game so I could choose gear from everywhere to gear my favourite jobs, not just one. It also helped that not all content was gated. Whereas here, with all the content being gated, once I'm close to gearing up my other jobs aside my "main", there's a new patch coming around the corner, making the gear obsolete already lol so by the time I'm done with my main, there's no reason to play my secondaries in end game, which was the reason I was gearing them up for! Because my static is done with farming, onto the new content with new gear that will replace what we were just farming a bit ago that we only got to use in the content that we were farming! Farmingception! New gear to grind every big patch which comes every 3 months or so, all those hours wasted. I feel like a hamster on a never ending threadmill.
