ARR often feels very contradictory in its design (long)

Yah thinks like that "we would like to see NM's back" thread. That thing had over 3,000 likes and was over 300 pages long...and all we got was "no, we dont like people competing"....which i found F'n hilarious since they changed 1.2x's combat purely for the sake of making it viable for PvP, which we now have....so whats all this about anti-competition? If i find the thread il edit it into here.

Edit: nvm, we wont ever see that among a few others since they cleared a lot of the older posts out.

You know what else I noticed they cleared out, all evidence of the old games exsistance.
I can't even find the old soundtrack on you tube anymore, lol probably because the old soundtrack was a billion times better and they don't want people to know.

The last 14 had a host of other problems, like gear not mattering at all, or newly-introduced endgame gear being worse than gear that's flooding the markets.

Crafting needed a use and it was extremely hard to craft gear that good, I preferred it because it was just as hard if not harder to afford gear like that or craft it than the end game was anyways. I didn't see that as a problem I actually thought it made alot more sense when compared to what we have now. The final sets of end game gear Dark Light was no easy accomplishment ether, both styles of achieving a good end game set were challenging and it was nice to have options. You know not everyone likes doing dungeons all the fkn time.

Crafting classes now have close to no use or purpose and end game gear is so easy now that there isn't even anything in the game worth being proud of.
