Well, weāll have to agree to disagree.
I think the patch changes show that the Developers believe that one path is far far far easier, and this is to correct that⦠Soā¦
Iām not pivoting⦠Itās the same argumentā¦
One way is TOO easy⦠Make it harder to doā¦
HWM takes very little time⦠I donāt know HOW people who claim to put in all this work did it without doing chest runs⦠Where did you get all that gold to BUY refining materials? You should have SOME high water markā¦
Youāll be ok⦠Itāll hurt for a little while⦠At least your nerf isnāt as bad as others where thereās no getting it backā¦
I wonāt write as much as frosteh did because more than likely the people that should educate themselves wonāt read it anyways
High-level crafting takes
5/5 clothes plus earring
3 major trophies in 3 houses
Food buff
Running around to various towns to find T5 stations
Eats up your CDs
Proc 600GS gear with +cooking (grr)
More time than you honestly realize, when I was helping company defend and gear up members it easily took all day when I could have been doing a multitude of other things
So many stupid things with so few words⦠Almost impressedā¦
āThe fact that I think its okā How is it fact, if the āI thinkā part is my opinion? How can it be a fact?
Itās āa lotā.
Iāve never spoke to the Developers about it so I have no idea if they think its ok to hurt peopleā¦
I never made any claim to know that developers have any intention on āhurtingā people for the sake of hurting them. What I have said, is its Clearly a balance issue. Theyāre balancing one path thatās far easier to make it more in line with the other pathā¦
Now Iām glad that it hurt one individual who keeps moving the goal post, and doing a lot of what youāre doing here⦠Setting up a strawman argument ⦠That guy⦠Yeah⦠I LIKE that he doesnāt like the changes because heās a douche. So while I read all his words, I just smile⦠Itās a petty thing⦠yes⦠but, if youāre so mad that they want to balance the game⦠shame on you.
A lot of folks were not happy when the emancipation proclamation was enacted, and I donāt feel sorry for them.
Balance my friend⦠is key⦠If you find that your the beneficiary of privilegeās donāt be mad when itās corrected. The real problem is you donāt recognize youāre the beneficiary of it, at least you wonāt admit to it⦠Try to be more empathetic.
You keep using the words easy and hard. This is where we disagree as well. There is nothing hard about any of these systems. Nothing hard about harvesting. Nothing hard about crafting. Nothing hard about looting boxes. Nothing hard about even killing the mobs/bosses while looting boxes. Its just tedious.
There is nothing interesting about these elite zones. Adding absurd hit points and damage to elite NPCs doesnāt make them hard. It just makes it mind numbing boring. Which is why I donāt do the content anymore. Its not that its hard. Its that its boring. Its because its not hard that I donāt do it. Spamming my LMB on some trash and some bosses for an hour is not my idea of a good time. Its all easy stuff. Just freaking boring.
This whole game is built on pretty graphics and boring content. There is nothing memorable about the game itself. I have some memorable things with some friends but it wasnāt the content that made them memorable.
Does anyone actually go into one of these elite zones or dungeons and actually get stoked they beat something? They might get stoked they got a lucky drop but no good player is getting stoked about beating anything in this game. Not the way they would in other MMOs. I can see getting stoked over like a war win in this game or maybe even an opr win (not sure about the opr win because its the one content I havenāt tried yet) but nothing in the PVE aspect of the game does it make me jump out of my chair in victory because I beat it.
Tedious does not make anything hard. It just makes it take longer. The entire game is build on making it take longer but none of it is actually fun. Instead of making things fun they just scramble to make things take even longer. They literally spent their first two major content updates on making things take longer while adding almost nothing fun. That to me is piss poor direction.
I am looking forward to the QoL boosts in the cash shop! AGS has my FULL SUPPORT. I donāt have time to play the game that much, so this will really help me!
Ohhh Crikey⦠Look what we have here⦠This is what we call doppleganger troll.
So what they do is, they make a claim like and pretend that they like something, then they lie about it to make it look badā¦
But most game donāt have a P2W cash shop they have a P2Advantage cash shop. Same effect just worded different.
Why would they go through legal advisors. P2W is not against any laws, its just hated by players.
Ooh someoneās triggered! Shouldnāt you be playing the game you love so much instead of being here trying to troll the trolls? I also recommend going back to their May tweet to have an understanding of their plans for micro transactions before you lift up that shield. That said, cry more for me
Iām here because I am a customer. Iāve played the game since Alpha. I purchased a copy of the game. Iām just as entitled to be here and discuss the game as you are.
You have a very loose definiton of triggeredā¦
What game I love so much?
Iāve called this game a Dumpster Fire⦠I think so far the game is a disaster, but this last patch was good, and the next one looks like the best one yetā¦
Whatās that? More crying? Please cry more! A lil disappointed you removed your like to my reply. But please keep the tears flowing. I didntā ask for your reply, but clearly you felt the need to cry to me. So keep crying
touchyā¦
You just typed liked 500 words about how much you hate the gameā¦
Yet here you areā¦
I donāt understand that⦠If you really felt that way⦠WHY put up with it?
Because. Itās Hyperbole!!!
Youāre just feeling the sting of being nerfād⦠I understand⦠Iām a Fire Staff user⦠Nerfās suck, I did a little whining about my nerf too⦠At the time I really thought AGS was crazy⦠I didnāt think I ws that OP⦠Turns out⦠Fire Staff was a little strong⦠I think they went a little too far with the nerfās but theyāre still balancing everything outā¦
