All your updates do not reflect what the majority of your players want. I was personally hoping for new locations to hunt and adjusted drop rates so we can afford to farm with shots, ores, potions, etc... The game is grossly saturated and people have to kill each other just to have a decent place to hunt. The game is also in a wreck because of all the FARM-BOTS dominating questing areas, as well as favorable hunting spots. And, why don't you bring back the option where we can sell materials back to the NPC shops for adena. Someone told me NC Soft removed that option to limit the farmers, and now all they do is leave all the junk materials on the ground scattered everywhere, which is probably responsible for the poor latency and lag in the game. The horrific amount of P2W items in the game has caused an extreme imbalance in the game. The server seems one-sided to me and a few people control every aspect, event, and content of the game. Also, there is absolutely no competition due to the fact that the majority of players (co-dependent ones) want to win all the time, so they end up joining the winning side, rather than trying to balance the game and fighting against the stronger team.
The PK system needs to be revamped because people can avoid Lv. 3 Observatory by working off their karma in a few minutes and go right back to PKing again. Any high level player stacked with P2W items can PK anytime with very little consequence. If challenged by an equally strong player they can simply BSOE! The risk of losing items has the same probability as NC Soft listening to their community (.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001%).
PLEASE STOP wasting your resources in trying to make new mobile versions of L2, which will most likely be a FAIL in the Americas, and start doing things to improve the original game which has held on to player base for over 21 years! This game has proven time and time again that it CANNOT BE REPLACED and DESERVES to be improved NOT JUST FOR PROFIT, but for the GAME QUALITY for the players who continue to stay LOYAL. We understand that businesses are here to profit, but there has to be a balance! Why don't you make a survey in the community asking from 1-10 how greedy the community believes NC Soft is? I'm sure NC Soft will already know the outcome of that survey! You guys are treating this game like a drug knowing that many of your players are helplessly addicted. If you want to go to Heaven then do something good for your community. Amen...
Love the game, but hate the marketing strategy...
