    Funny story...

    When subjective creatures such as humans are asked to give their answer to the question "Is aesthetic value subjective or objective?" guess how the majority answer?

    Objective!

    Aesthetic value has little to do with how much pleasure you get from something, whatever that may be or what form that pleasure takes. Feelings do not always accord with that which our senses ought to sense.

    Some people might not like Mozart's 5th symphony, but they'd be a fool to suggest it sounds bad and is not a well written piece of music.

    We might not be the biggest fans of those subligars, but one can't deny the splendid function of booty display that they provide.

    I like the subligar. The individual I quoted was claiming that the level 1 glamours were the "best" and using that as a reason why sub-50 players shouldn't get to glamour. Thus my pointing out to them that "best" in terms of aesthetic is subjective. (Also they were wrong in that it would mean no one would have to put any effort into them.)

    Lol those runs were only ever hard when yu took short cuts. If you stayed on the beaten path or roads it was a piece of cake..
    I was really referring more to the fact that when you aggroed stuff in that game it would usually *chase your ass down* until you zoned, not like this game where it gives up after following you for 10 feet.

    You also did not get the *ping* and aggro lines when something was attacking you in that game, either. If you had your sound turned up high you might hear the low distinctive sound effect that an enemy type makes when it aggros you. Other than that you get no advance warning.

    No sprinting, either.

    Yes, it still was easy for someone who knew what they were doing, but you have to admit it was rougher in that game than here.

    Rougher by far but we all loved it.

    This is my take as well, especially since at level 17 they can also start running Palace of the Dead, and one of the main type of drops from the bags in PoTD is glamour items. Matching the system that uses said items with the level they can start becoming more readily available as a reward from a gameplay element makes sense.

    Would also be a valuable lesson for said novice. It's alright to let players stumble from time to time.

    I kind of liked trying out the different armor sets along the way. None of them are particularly flashy, which makes the endgame/expansion gear stand out more. Its an achievement that you work towards, not something that is handed to you. To do so would devalue it. I think...

    And yes. The subligars are horrible. Most embarrassing dungeon ever.

    Just a thought.
    Glamouring is never pointless!

    It saves you from wasting all your money on glamour crystals since when you're levelling up to 50 you change gear all non-stop.

    But hey if you want those prices to go up due to so many more being bought, that's fine by me, I can sell more

    Insane, lol good one. What's insane is the lack of patience being displayed by my fellow comrades. Just accept that the game doesn't give us everything we want now. We might actually be "forced" into delayed gratification, no matter how that makes you feel on the inside.
