RNG is ruining this game (ATMA QQ post)

[Jinko]

I think RNG is what makes an mmorpg fun. Running dungeons loads of times to get that one drop you want so much is so much fun. There should be more things like rare spawns with low drop rate vanity items and stuff. So no I don't think RNG ruins the game it makes it exciting.

Although I agree that this is what MMOs are about, ie farming gear which is part of a huge loot table and you have multiple other choices and paths to go, That is fine.

However it is bad design to make a quest reliant on RNG because it means people can't actually complete it within a realistic time frame, for some its easy for some it is not, for some it could be near impossible, this is a quest remember not some RNG drop from a dungeon or boss. (people are just asking for fairness)

Where were you a few months ago when people on the forums complained that they wanted more grindy open world content?

Grindy is fine, RNG however is a big problem for some people, myself included, it is possible to have grind without randomness, luck and chance don't really bring anything to the table other than to those who are overly self inflated and feel the need to show off.
