    Worm I read all your posts recently and I think you don't understand what we are trying to say. The problem is not the RNG part. There is and always be a RNG part with mmorpg, the main problem here is the game design. Having a RNG part with something challenging and fun is ok. Having a rng part with something boring, requiring no skill etc is a mistake.

    I have no problem in real life with my job to spend time on something long with no garanteed result in the end, but the thing is ... it's a game and I don't have anything to prove in a game I just want it to be fun and exciting. ATMA is not fun nor exciting and as a consequence shouldn't be part of a game.

    We're not having fun fix please!

    I agree that it should have been something other than FATEs, but when you guys go and say "hey I don't find this fun don't make it part of the game" It's just so irritating to me. Why does what you like trump what I like? It's like the antithesis of discussion or thought. I honestly don't mind it, it's going to be fun to have the item, it's going to be rare (for a little while) and I'm enjoying it right now. How did the desires and opinions of you become the golden standard for what's fun and exciting?

    Also if you get bothered because the guy next to you gets something you lost a roll for ... you are LITERALLY HAVING A PROBLEM WITH RNG. Grinding is just gambling, because it's not the standard token treadmill you're used to it has to be removed immediately. There is already barely any scarcity in this genre anymore thanks to players like you, it's just twisting the dagger to see everyone freaking out ... very often using poorly thought out arguments that are against RNG or timesinks in general.

    Try spending over 64 hours farming the same fates in the same zone over and over and not getting a single atma, then say you like it, haha.
