>the usual asiaticshit attached to an otherwise good game
Perfect summary.
Amazon also fricked it. They were pussies about RMT/botting and refused to hard perma people who engaged in it. So an already greedy scumfrick asiaticshit game had an even-worse-than-intended economy. It's p2w as frick, unfriendly to anyone that stops playing for more than a few days, and is 99% bots at this point.
Remove honing and ALL of the swiping for power and it would be decent. Shame too, the gameplay is amazing.
>otherwise good game
that's the saddest part because Lost Ark is by far my favorite playing ARPG
I never had as much fun in this genre as playing my roach and going psycho mode on a boss. Or landing a full Soulfist Genki Dama.
spot on, 1370+ was the faint glimpse of the absolute endgame nonsense this game has, I still remember beating Valtan for the first time with my guild, and it was exactly there that I just left the guild's discord and unistalled, it was such a powerful feeling of pure dread that I got knowing this was gonna be my life every single week from now on. Glad I left that shit behind.
Game had a really good leveling experience until they bait you into the core loop of the gameplay, which turned into generic carrot on a stick kmmo dogshit p2w bullshit
i loved it at launch and when it was new, turned dogshit as soon as you reach tier 3
>pay gold to upgrade your gear to do raids so you can pay gold to upgrade your gear to do raids >also here's 5 different rng mechanics to upgrade different gear that all require more gold and have sub 1% chance of giving you what you want >also if you aren't already geared you aren't doing raids because nobody wants to carry shitters unless you are paying them gold and the only way to earn gold outside of raids is by paying money for it
Did they ever finally release the legendary outfits after they held them back because they didn't want to be pay2win but then released esther weapons that cost tens of thousands of dollars?

The global launch was SO FUN, like the old days, a big mmo with decent content
until they released argos and fricked everything up KEK
are you actually moronic? Argos was the peak of this shit, as soon as Valtan and clown came to the game it went straight to hell
peak yes, but also the downhill of it
it was the whole 1370 grind meme was when the global fanbase first got the taste of what were to come

Glad I left that shit behind.
the combat is fun but everything else about the game makes me sick
I will never play a game published by Amazon
Did they finally get rid of the bots?
The only players left are bots so no
don't forget the 10 ultra mega whale gooners
The sad thing is that they haven't. About 60% of the playerbase is straight up bots, meaning there are less than 30k players..

I abandoned it right after it forced you to go to that shitty island/house to do management
>65k
WE'RE FINE!
Also i'm pretty sure at least 50k of those are still bots.

wow, almost like RMT chads were right all along...
CHANG, I FRICKING KNEEEEEL

>pay to win out the ass
everything is wrong
with every passing year, it has becoming obvious who is the goat
troonyzon censoring it. Everyone who was interested just moved onto the KR and RU servers instead of supporting those gays.
Did they ever finally release the legendary outfits after they held them back because they didn't want to be pay2win but then released esther weapons that cost tens of thousands of dollars?
they did release legendary outfits eventually
Release five years too late, not counting the western re-release.
LOSAT ARK THE NEWEST BEST MMO PVE EVER
ok now run through the most generic mindnumbing leveling process for 24+ hours before you can even touch the "endgame"
oh and there are a handful of bots kek
