Unfortunately I agree. I was expecting an "ArchAge done right" but I was wrong. Here's my grips with it: - While it has an amazing character design... it also has the worst hair styles I've ever seen. - Gender locked classes. It just break immersion for me if I play a female character! - most non-combat activities are fully(fishing, gathering) or partially(trade runs) automated... an afk incentive. - Asian level of grind and only kills give you xp. Spend an entire day of fishing/trading = ZERO xp. - PvP starts at lvl 50... how is this marketed as a "pvp game" when you need to reach near max soft-cap to even do it. - PvE is just farming/grinding groups of NPC's or a clusterf#ck of players hitting that 1 boss for 1+ hours. - Quests have the worst dialogs I've ever seen in a MMO. All you do is press "next" and suddenly the npc is answering an imaginary question, so you have to extrapolate what you theoretically asked from the response. - pets bought in the cash shot help you farm by picking up items for you. - cash shop only cloak to use any sort of "stealth" in pvp. - Items have no visual impact in you character (hurray more cash shop). - workers only work when you are online... more benefits to afk. - everything you buy such as boats, carts even furniture loses durability even if it was never attacked and you can't repair them... you need to build them again from scratch. The thing that made me quit was why (from game design perspective) they made all gameplay except mob farming to be automated. They are almost forcing you to leave your character afk whenever you are not playing (day and night) due to all the benefits from being online.
I know him very well...and he's a good gamer..he's just ranting..that is allowed..those who play that game can make there own opinion on it. it is what it is an opinion. and some agree with him on that one so..
Oops I meant 15 year old :S But I guess if it is an 18 it still wouldn't be appropriate. I was just looking for a good review from an everyday sort of guy since all the ones I find are from these big corporations and I don't trust any of them! What do you mean by troll?
sorry missunderstood you when you said 5 by accident lol and ermmm tbh 15 hmm depends on how you feel about sex n violence in video games Id say the game deals with alot of mature subjects like hookers drug deals and gang wars As an adult with no children i cant judge an adult with children however if i had kids i wouldnt be willing to let a child of under 15 play the game because its mature nature (Troll is someone purposily trying to wind some up with obvious stupidity or sarcastic intent)
