I started playing since 1.0 and never stopped, but now things are not quite the same any more.
There are too many things that I started to dislike in this game, and the list is growing each patch.
1- Daily/weekly lockouts (we want to keep you subscribed so we are holding your fun back) I don’t want to play once a week, or (we don’t want the gap between the hardcore players and the casual players to be big), you can hardly see casual playing with hardcore so what’s the point, or (hardcore players will get everything in the first week and will get bored fast and we can’t keep up with that) so make a scale mode to make it harder after each win, and the reset will be once a week.
2- RNG (ATMA, ST, CT, and Gear from normal dungeons) this system is very old and there are other ways to fix this and make it more fun.
3- Crafting, so much work and gill spent to get nothing good in the end, most of the gear that drops from normal dungeon’s are better than the ones you craft if we calculate how much gill you going to spend to make this gear.
4- Hunt, I’m not going to start talking about this here or I will never stop.
5- EU latency, can you play without a VPN? That’s an extra cost.
6- Raids, where are they? ST, CT are zerg content that’s not raid, and coil is only 8 man raid (and it’s not fun, you are killing mobs in a closed area, learn the mechanics and that’s it), and why even do it when I can get most of the things I want from doing Hunt?
7- Complicating things instead of doing them the easy way, like glamor, buy the stone (there are 5 types), buy mats (different for each crafting class), craft the item to glamor (different for each crafting class), then you can glamor, that’s waste of inventory space for something that is cosmetic.
I don’t want to keep going on and on, but these are some of the things that keep me from logging in and play as much as I like, and I didn’t even talk about game mechanics, PVP, or skills yet.
This is what i wanted to tell you SE, and good luck.
