Dear Amazon - A letter of love and grief

Dear Amazon,

You’ve made a wonderful game and I have enjoyed almost every second of my journey with my friends and I was so ecstatic that this game defied my expectations. The new world, the combination of ideas from games like D2, WoW, Rift, BDO, sand box games and more. You’ve found a way to combine them and make them great. This game makes me so excited to finally have an mmo I want to invest my time in or I was until… I hit 60.

You have some issues that shouldn’t take a week to fix. You have game breaking bugs that have absolutely destroyed my post 60, post leveling experience. I have looked forward to hitting 60 since I first started playing but the moment I did my experience was… completely lacking.

My azoth staff tier 5 does not work so I cannot do end game corruption, You enabled invasions on territories despite the fact that no one can complete them right now on our server because there aren’t enough 50-60 players to do them so we’re just constantly getting downgraded in every location. End game level 60 weapon quests constantly have bugged quest bosses so they constantly reset preventing us from doing… any of them…

End game world boss zones(open world dungeons) in shattered are completely blocked off so you can’t even kill the last boss + you can’t close the corruptions (could be related not sure). Gear drops are complete lacking. Finding an upgrade isn’t a fun and excited or a worth while grind at all. There is no pay off to the effort you put in. We do end game quests just to have the gear they give you roll with the absolute worst stats possible so those SEVERAL 570-580 pieces of gear you get aren’t even worth equipping.

The pvp scaling is horrible. Once you’re 60 you can’t even 2v1 a couple level 45’s. But if you’re 54 you can with ease. This reminds me of WoW BFA’s pvp scaling. Complete ass, this needs to be fixed. I shouldn’t have to struggle against 2 people who attacked me first when they’re both 15 levels lower than me and hit me harder than I hit them… insane.

On top of the other bugs experienced everywhere I’ve put in the effort and have kept playing but tonight did me in. You should be releasing bug fixes in batches more regularly not weekly. You’re halting character progression completely. We get that you’re new at video game development but with the funds available to you… why? Why did you do a bigger beta? more testing for longer periods. More stress testing. This game… despite all it’s current flaws is so worth playing until you hit end game.

My word of advice to new players… Take your time, there is no rush because the place you’re rushing to is still under construction and will not live up to your expectations that were set by your 1-59 experience.

With love,
