I could take screens with my logged hours/cap etc but I won't. You will either chalk it off to being edited or dismiss the fact that it's not hard to raise your PLC by simply playing the game in some other manner.

If you keep your character capped, it can't take more than like a weeks worth of game-play to have your plc at world cap.

We've obviously got different views on how the game should be and balancing.

You guys also blatantly bring your personal vendetta bullshit into every discussion I'm involved in. So sorries you don't like how I play the game.

In the end, even when if I'm a "troll" as you guys put it, I still have the best interest of the game's mechanics and future at heart.

More than I can say for most of you who only seem to care about easy-mode, soloing, god mobs, aesthetics and other trivial bullshit.

Holy shit I'm screenshotting this for the epic hypocrisy. I might print and frame on my wall not sure yet

Just because you have this twisted POV that seems to think anything that's not a nerf (whether needed or not) means the game is being put on easy mode or making god mobs abusable doesn't mean it's true.

Believe it or not most of us make these posts and complaints cause certain mechanics can take AWAY from the fun of the game.

No matter how high-and-mighty you believe your interests of the game to be, a lot of us truly want the game to be more fun, not just made more annoyingly difficult and having to use a party as a crutch for every little thing.

And as for your little remark about "aesthetics" being trivial bullshit. I actually have a few friends that Vincent and I tried to get into the game but they didn't like the graphics (see: aesthetic bullshit) so they refused.

People actually care about if a game looks nice or not.

Granted he's stupid and doesn't get 8 bit graphics or the original FF feel, but I'm just using that as a quick example about why aesthetics aren't bullshit at all.

I've had several friends leave or refuse to try because of the graphics. xD

Parties are a staple whether you like it or not.

The people viewing it as a crutch are usually the ones who complain about ability to solo.

I don't understand why some people play the game if they don't want to party or feel that the mechanics should cater to them having an easier time while alone. That is what single player games are for.

A lot of fun can be had by seeing how far you can go while working within set limitations. It's true sometimes things need to be changed, but that's not always the case.

I understand aesthetics can be/are important. I was more directly referring to things like the suggestion to have the mountain removed from Sankora.

Either way, graphics on byond games are never going to be amazing and game-speed is always going to be on par with turtles fucking.

Graphics don't make the game.
Names don't make the game.
Speed doesn't make the game.
Custom Icons don't make the game.

Some of these are just nice little perks that we don't necessarily need. People have just gotten accustomed to having them and are so spoiled that they believe they are entitled to them.

Parties *are* a staple to the game, always will be. The only people complaining about soloing are the ones with BW's as a main. Nobody said they don't wanna party at all, or that the mechanics need to "cater" to anything. I still don't see what you have against BW's soloing for decent amount of exp like every other class can do without problems. That doesn't mean people just joined the game to solo, parties are still the best exp out there.

But with the game this inactive and good training parties being hard to find it'd be nice if you didn't have to always rely completely on a party to advance your character.

Spoiled because people want to be able to name their characters and not lag to hell and back when they play a game?

O_o

Where'd the character name thing come from anyway...

_________________________________________

From comments people have made about people not liking the game because it's slow or not liking the graphics.

It's like refusing to play a great 8-bit game because it's not 3d and you can't stand the graphics.

The naming thing is from people complaining or saying they don't want to play if they can't have a certain character name.

Character name doesn't have shit to do with fundamental game play.

The game could have pre-generated names that we all had to use and it would still play the same.

_________________________________________

It's not about how names effect gameplay noob. People LIKE having their own names. No one gets their jollies off being handed a name when they log in.

But you have a point, Dean! People shouldn't have the choice to pick where their exp goes either. Instead of letting them prof stuff we should have it done automatically on a random or pre-determined method.

Hell, we shouldn't even let people pick where they train. They are so spoiled. We should make it so you can only train in certain spots on certain days based on your character level.

No sense in giving people what they want, they don't make the game. Who ever heard of players making the game...

Sounds good to me Cea. I like Dean's thinking; a game on rails would be great for us.

Awesome tude bros. Want me to send you guys a telescope you so you can see the point? You're obviously looking in the totally wrong direction.

That'd be good. I'm seriously not seeing an good point you're trying to make.

So... When I play there never seem to be a lot of other Newbies around, can I convince some of you guys to come play with me sometimes?

I have two newbie characters but it'll be hard for you to catch me at a time I'm playing them... :P
