    Default A Truly "Off-Topic" Discussion

    Some of you guys may think of me as a "mean guy" or "that guy" who seems to say the wrong things in the wrong places. But really guys, there is no need for taking tons of stuff so seriously. I am just blunt about the truth and my opinions. Im not here to please everyone. If anything im saying what some people dont want to say.

    Im just here speaking my mind and asking questions. Since we are in off topic.

    SL is a fun game but it flawed in MY OPINION. Mods seem to police everything but themselves, also I enjoy a serious MMO that I can get into not a pickup and go MMO where it seems you grind to a level cap and are left in the dark for weeks on end until new content comes out.

    Not to say I dont enjoy playing the game, because honestly if it wasnt for my guild and the friends I have made it in, the game wouldnt be itself at all and my interest level would be completely different.

    On a final note, it seems the game is rigged to purchase plat to access everything. Want the best gear? Gota use plat...special maps? Gota buy plat. So where does that leave people who cant afford plat? In the dust, everything else is fine, vanities, some armor, some weps. But it just seems your cant have an edge in the game UNLESS you spend money on plat.

    Sparkle On! <3

    Every game is flawed to be honest. There will always be something bigger and better.

    You just have to enjoy the game while it lasts, best thing about mmo's is the ability to play with other people. Well that's basically what they are, and that's why I'm hooked.

    Cool story bro(is that how they say it?)

    Seriously, what do you expect people to say in this thread?

    You don't like the game - quit and find another one
    You want it to improve - post something in suggestions section and hope that devs will implement it

    I don't know what else to say really.

    Pointless thread that won't help or even entertain anybody.
    It was fun while it lasted.

    to be honest, if u don't like the game, and don't want to play it, then I would suggest u keep it to yourself. That was a blatant flame and u know full well that it was:

    Serpus, it might be time to lay off the eggnog.

    I believe the concept of an MMO is to be a massive multiplayer role playing game, no? Thus, the players are usually what makes the game fun, not the content. Infact, it's fun to complete content with other players rather than to have at it alone.

    As for the platinum issue, I'll just say one thing. The world runs on money, yes even games. If you're unhappy with that, I suggest you go play Runescape or Angry Birds Free Version to satisfy your gaming needs. If you spend your platinum wisely, the game IS NOT that expensive. However, if you make every frivolous purchase that you can ever make, the game can turn out to be quite the money drain.

    Lol, I should have added that I'm one of those frivolous platinum purchasers. I don't deny it though. I realize I can get by on the game much cheaper, but I choose not to, because I gotz to haz the exclusives.

    I'd follow Blinds suggestion & quit. I mean really, SL sucks anyways.

    I agree with most everything you said though, a lot of truth.

    But it is a FREE game. It can be played from beginning to end without plat. Plat is optional & STS needs a way to make it's $ as well.

    STS are far from dummies. They have created a very nice money pit for themselves.

    I agree, how many people dont pay for plat that honestly enjoy the game

    I honest to god LOVED this game when it first came out, but it seems that you cant really do anything without either grinding for days and days on end or you can cave in and buy plat

    would expect some kind of player churn but overall, the game was just much more fun when Numa was cap, in fact most fun when Numa was cap

    The newer campaigns are not really casual either, its not pick up and play because you need to pay attention and cant play for 2-5 minute bursts at all

    at the same time the game does not really satisfy the hardcore players as well

    Some gamers dont like PvP and all the stuff associated with it, few people play fair and most people who play well have a bag full of dirty tricks they got from other games lol that just makes anyone new to pvp not enjoy the exp

    Plat store - not enough things to buy actually, those who like to support the game dont have too many things to spend on outright... at the same time you absolutely need plat to make credits and get in-game stuff :/

    game still going tho, eventually well get people who like it just the way it is haha and maybe more people will show up after the holidays

    nooooooooo you have to pay plat too have a edge on the game trust me i know. you may think u have good gear but you dont. an the server they run PL an SL is very inexpensive an they save alot of money unlike WOW wherw it cost like 170k a day to run there servers.

    Not to say I dont enjoy playing the game, because honestly if it wasnt for my guild and the friends I have made it in, the game wouldnt be itself at all and my interest level would be completely different.
    when i logged in with chrome for the first time in months, i found no online friends on my main, Arterra.
    I accepted EVERYONE on my main.
    Kinda a bummer xD

    As for the plat necessity, I'm with the developers on this one. Sure, the need for elixers is increasing alarmingly, but the core substance of what can be bought (extra maps, vanities) IS completely optional. The game IS free to play, very well so. While SL has such a credit meltdown that people buy them with money, PL at least resembles what STS is all about in terms of access.
