Nicely put. I guess I’m just venting a bit. I remember paying the subscription rate for this game before it became free to play (haha) and even though leveling sucked I was never spending more adena than I made per day which is the case at the moment. The bs with having to craft all higher skill spellbooks, the material drops you can’t sell back to the store or trade to a dorf because their imprinted for some reason, lack of area’s for meelees to hunt without having to run all over the place, getting pked by meat pie orcs so they can pull all the mobs in the room and zero equipment drop penalty if we do decide to kill them when they’re red. The fact the guards in town don’t attack reds on site and they can still interact with Npc’s. I really don’t understand wtf designer’s were thinking.
I dunno, I was really excited about this release. My Live acct is 5 lvls off of the top players which means I get 2 shotted by those players during sieges. I was looking forward to starting with everyone and not being gimped by my level. It’s a disappointment, Amazon’s New World is being released the end of the month I will probably start playing that because Aden might be an okay game but NCSoft is all about “how do we drain everyone’s $$” not content.
