Stop with the FOMO

[Reinhardt_Azureheim]

The PVP FOMO is really where it's at.

Honestly, if you need to coerce your players into a game mode on the threat of missing out on cool items forever the game mode probably isn't any good.

Oh PLEASE, as if any PvE player actually lifts a finger for more than a single clear if there wasn't incentive adequate for their required input. The reason why Alliance Raid Roulette iLv cheese exists (since it all gives the same reward) and why we absolutely sh** on Criterion rewards being pure dogwater are just some fitting examples.

Crystalline Conflict is good enough that Casual Mode can be practically played daily at any given time except the dead of the night. Just turns out if you raise the stakes by adding a rank, restricting queues based on those ranks and games no longer being as easily steamrollable that people want something for their time investment that they can't get outside of Ranked - to give reason to play Ranked over Casual.

But no, clearly the game is just bad.
