I'm confused...

It has made token prices rise so now buying Crabs (HP food) and Herbs (MP food) but I personally think this won't last long since the NPC won't be around forever and has also forced people to learn how to play the game. People have realised that now you can't just spark and slash at bosses to get things done, you actually have to work. Clearly people cannot handle this.

i personally think its because everyone, even the complainers have immersed themselves in CS luxury. And by CS luxury, i mean by anything related to the direct buying of items off of boutique or the leftovers sold to the public. All the things that have gone up in price are of that genre. Things that we dont actually need to play the game but makes it easier. Pple like easy.

the instances arent too impossible. it just takes a bit of thinking and coordination and prep. We've been pampered too much with easy bosses that take at the most, an hour to figure out and kill, that we cant handle anything that takes longer than that. To those that play subscription games, they should know how long some new content bosses take to clear.

fairybox was kinda stupid i have to agree on that. Hard to see the logic in it. Maybe im missing something.

Bug fixes - pple just like to beat dead horses

Weapon/gear upgrades - another dead horse beater. Not like most can get the highest upgrade anyway. They like to complain cause 10 pple getting R9+12 3rd recast on the whole of US server.... would be drastically unfair to them. /facepalm

I personally like this update. The bosses are really awesome and its nice to have finally gotten a new challenge in game. but people are always gonna complain when they actually have to work to get something. but you know I bet PWE could give everyone full r9 for free and there would still be a bunch of people QQing about it.

Why are a lot of people upset about the update? I don't know what the update did but I thought I'd ask.

Also: Mature answers please, this isn't a rage thread.

Most people aren't upset, it's just that only the upset people that take the time to come and post on the forums about how they're upset. All the people who liked the update are most likely playing the game instead of posting how they like the update. It's just like the news, only the people who complain get the headlines.

I personally think that since the EG update I've seen PWI actually trying to improve the game from the sad state the TB devs had brought it down to. They've actually added gear that can be farmed (even if hard to, but so what? TT99 was considered amazingly hard to farm back in the day, so was lunar). They've added a new area with quests that are actually worthwhile to complete. Hell even the storyline was better than the old quests of "Kill 40 xxxxxxx because I don't like them blah blah blah."

In the end, people will always complain about something.

BTW, this is all coming from a guy who has quit before because of the direction this game had taken, but you know, after sampling much of the F2P market, PWI still comes out near the top. I don't understand why people continuously compare P2P games to PWI. Guess what, YEAH subscription based games will almost always be more balanced than F2P. If you want that, go pay a subscription. If you're too poor or lazy to pay, then accept the fact that you're going to have a lesser quality game.

The classic situation of you get what you paid for.


EDIT: I'm not saying to not push the devs to always improve their game (like they should), but stop ******** everytime they do anything. If we complain even when they try to improve something, then they're just going to stop trying to please at all. (Honestly I've think this has already happened somewhat.)

Well I know one good thing came out of all this mess...
We will inevitably see much less of "TY BH for [Ecstasy Card] b:victory" on WC.
