![]() March 2017: I bought the game, started playing Winston. If you don’t feel like reading the full post, TL DR, the game has been broken for a while and I am angry at the lack of developer response. ![]() Let me just give you a timeline of my decreased faith with the game. But after a while, the game’s holes have been starting to show. This is easily the best multiplayer FPS out right now, no offense to CS:GO. And I have fun having a whole roster of heroes to master and apply on a ranked ladder. They are fun heroes that consistently give me a positive experience when playing. I fell in love with Orisa initially, then Roadhog, and I have been devout to Lucio and Tracer since then. They will still be there tomorrow.Let me begin with saying that still, after a year of playing, I love this game. If you dont feel like doing them on some characters, don’t. The one thing I learned about Lost Ark is that you have to play it the way you want and not the “most optimal”. The reason for this is because while you are away, there are still all the players still playing the game and progressing and when you do try to come back it is VERY discouraging to return due to the thought of how far behind you are from everyone else and how long it would take you to catch back up and be able to do that NEW thing that made you want to come back and check it out in the first place. One important thing about taking a break is that, the longer you are away from the game, the harder it is to come back. I just recently came back to the game to try and give it another go. I also had to take a hiatus right before clown came out as I was burning out from the daily monotony. I assume you wrote this post to gain self justification of your gripes about the game and if they are viewed in the same detest by others as well and let me tell you all of what you said is correct. Hope you all continue to enjoy your game. I’m not sure how many of you will sympathize with me, or if you’ll just hit me with the “you will not be missed” type remarks, but I’m one less artillerist you’ll see que’ing for your raids. ![]() I played this long because my friends were also playing and encouraged me through the many shitty experiences I had with Lost Ark. I put up with the shitty progression system, gambling all the materials I earned over the weeks with nothing to show for them, the RNG mechanics, many of which had no pity built in, the pay 2 win nature of the game, the community gatekeeping, the bots, the laundry-list each of my characters had to do daily to keep up, the pitiful skill / skill tree variety for each class, the abysmal DPS to support ratio that made doing raids take way longer than in other games, the time-gated events that made me feel like I had to stay logged in longer than I wanted, the miserable, tedious, and expensive experience of gearing my alts to the point where it made more sense not to create an alt at all, the trivial difficulty of all content besides Legion Raids, the constant powerpasses which basically implied the devs knew the early game they created was shit with nothing but bots and spamming G so they let players skip straight to the hamster wheel section of the game where nobody really talks or goes on adventures because they just want to get done with their chores, hearing “LAILAIIII” screeching in my ear every fucking day and being forced to mute all dialogue so I don’t have to put up with it…Īnyways, like I said, I don’t want to write an essay. I gave Lost Ark a year of consistent playtime. I could write an essay about everything I hate about this game, but I’ll just say this. ![]()
