You're right, nobody is forced to do anything. Truly. In fact, nobody is forcing anybody to do Hunts, 2cob, crafting, or anything in this game for that matter. People do it out of their love from a combination of all of the things I've listed because there's a certain balance of work and reward. Whenever there's an imbalance, grievances pop up. In this case, I argue ATMA is the worst "design" and mechanic this game has seen thus far. They are literally designed to waste subscription time in the most cost effective way possible for the developers.
