its not just siege, its almost every aspect of the game.. they implement something, give you one narrow reward, when you get it, never a reason to run it again.. Totally not the way they described the play factor in Scotts blog.. its 100% opposite of that.. Who the heck wants to rum pom 1300 times? anyone? anyone? ack.
BAD way to do it. Since they love to not ACTUAL reward you for your game time, people just dont do that.
Its like the motes or future edemo.. whats the point EVER to run this content again? nothing.. which is the bad part.
Because they dont open up the legendary ring drops to to 5% chance at gold on edemo and make them unbound.. that will make people farm this sort of nonsense.
They have been messing up rewards now for a few months.

Yes I am getting tired of the "impossible farms" they keep implementing. It's either you are in with the initial flash mob for the reward or you are SOL.

To name a few off the top of my head.
This model is extremely short sighted and frustrating for those not in the initial rush.

Yes.. it is. Its a terrible design, because THEY have limited farming to such a extent, there is no reason for those WHO go through say edemo , after they get thier twisty themselves.
THERE is simply no reason to do it again.
How can they possible sit back and not think of a way to engage players to do content more then 20-30 times and call it good? Totally wrong way of thinking.
There should be a reason to farm edemo and that reason should be clear as day to them.. legendary rings. INCREASE edemo ring chance to AT least 5% on a gold win and make them unbound and sell on AH.. people will farm edemo, people with alts can now have a better chance at getting groups together blah blah blah..
ITs simply ridiculous the amount of WORK they have put into the game, to make nothing WORTH doing. Its amazing in the end how they achieved this new.. (lets not even bother)!
Im so frustrated with this aspect of the game. More then any other at the moment (even more then thier stupid RP gating..)
Ive played many games, on many game companies, this is by far the worst amount of return /investment of play time Ive ever seen in any of them.. in almost 20 years.
It wasn't like this just a 6-7 months ago (or whever pre mod 6 was at this rate).. so they made a conscious decision to remove rewards from players for playing their game.
IMAGINE if you could farm and sale motes? I mean some poor new player would make a fortune on the backs of those who WOULDN'T want to such a boring amount of work.
Of course bots could show up there too.. which is another reason never to tie rewards into such easy content.. but thats not my fault, thats the game design they gave.
