Can this game stop being a monday game?

EQ2 at launch took months to level cap, even with grouping every day and speed pulling in camps. I was DK with a reputation for being a good tank so always got a group. Yet still took months to get to cap. Which gave them plenty of time. Also the raids at launch where pretty much single boss encounters.

Also you HAD to have good gear, as without the right weapons, you couldnt even hit the raid mobs. So not a fair comparison tbh.

yup .. like i said u had to EARN killing the raid bosses and getting that bad ass gear .... something that is lacking here

Hahahahahahahaha.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

GRINDING = EARNING = COMPELLING GAME DESIGN APPARENTLY. It's so much fun to farm the same mob for 6 hours! It's earning my gear!

So... why aren't you playing EQ2 again? Last I heard it's still active. G'wan. Go play.

Go take months of grinding and crafting before you can even attempt a boss.

That takes skill.

Go "earn" it.

Gee, I wonder why EQ died...

you sir are ignorant and not even worth a response but i will anyway ... the raid bosses were tough to kill and so yes you had to earn the kills and the gear ... here however u just have to repeat a level 50 dungeon that u can do in 20 minutes to get end game gear which im sure you think is just fine and dandy .. you sir are what kills mmos

Wait, we were discussing the bosses? I'm pretty sure I'm ridiculing your claim that spending 3 months farming 4 sets of mobs so you could actually do something somewhat challenging was anything other than tedious and boring as hell.

Like I said, EQ2 is right over there. Go earn your gear, dude.

Same reason people buy Titan runs I guess (and soon to be, Coil runs). It's like how people aren't invited to speed runs unless they have Relic +1/DL, so they feel pressured to gear up I guess. Although I don't think people should feel that way, they should play the game at their own pace.

Yeah you're right. I just think it's sad really for players with this type of mentality. If you ever played Diablo 3 it was crazy the amount of real money people were wasting in order to feel leet. I made 1000 from just getting a lucky drop and even items that weren't that great was flying off the shelf for 250 dollars (limit) a piece.

He pays the same subscription price as you do. He can make any thread he wishes to voice concerns.

I don't see how voicing that you want to play the game more is in the wrong.

It's called "cruelty to animals".

Although I'm not sure if 10% is a precise number, I can say that the progression threads show many FC's are still unable to do all of the current content.

Also, 2.1 is in less then 2 weeks. By the time most of the community has finished the current content it will be 2.2.

Just because a progression thread doesn't list a guild as having done something doesn't mean they didn't do it. Progression threads are no where near an accurate way of measuring server progression.

We are on Turn 5, the progression thread doesn't even have us listed. That's because I don't really bother with getting our FC on their.

Not me, I play everyday. The choice to not do anything else is yours alone.

What else is there to do?

Level mining/botany, crafts, other jobs?

That's not really fun. I choose to do what is fun. If this were my first MMO Ever, then the grinds wouldn't be so bad and I'd be having fun all the time, but it isn't, this is like my 5th or 6th MMO. What appeals to me is end game content now, raids, etc, nothing else.

[Eekiki]

My fun is the right fun. Your fun is wrong.

Seriously, one week lock outs for everything. Coil, Tomes, CT gear. Why does everything need a lockout. I mean like the vanity from CT alone is a extremely weak reason to even bother with CT and i doubt from the main story and coils that it will be a compelling story. Most likely a cheese gather event to get in it. Yay.

Its getting harder and harder to log in any day besides monday.

Welco0me to any MMORPG ever. Play on friday. Work on your crafting. ETC
