“Im not gate keeping this person, I’m helping them” ~ Sywo The Legend
@Sam-cf1nq Жыл бұрын
Hey Sywo, I'm glad to see you're doing well :) I played on launch and got my Gunslinger to Papunika and completed that first raid that came out, and the clown dungeon. I loved the gameplay, but I'm a competitive person and I want to be doing the newest raids and content when it comes out. it felt like to be able to do that consistently, I'd either have to treat the game like a full time job, or drop a considerable amount of real money on the game, neither of which I am willing to do. I had many friends experience basically the exact same issue. Not only was there daily content that was mandatory (if you want to be in raid groups as soon as the new raid is released) to grind, it was also more efficient to also do those on alts, and then you have gathering of giants hearts, exploration, islands. rapport, cards, travelling merchants - So many things that felt necessary to someone who wants to play the game at a high level that require so much time. I would like to let my skill as a player dictate how far I can progress, not how much time I'm willing to sink in or how much money i'm willing to spend. I don't have an issue spending money on games that I enjoy, I bought the platinum founders pack, and a couple of skins, and would've definitely bought many more, but when I feel like I need to spend money to stop myself falling behind, that's a problem to me. That in itself was enough for me to stop playing, but there was quite a few other issues, such as; Rampant botting, technical issues with the Marketplace, no marketplace API on our version - It just made me feel like I was wasting my time on an inferior version of the game. It is as you say in your video, a game should make you want to log in and play, not feel like you have to.

wow this just hits the nail on the head for me too and i think for a LOT of other players as well. I absolutly fricking love this game, it is by far the longest and most fun i had with an MMO, but at some point, it realy felt like more of a Job then fun. when i then got out of scool and got a real job, it just was impossible for me to continue play with the 2 - 3 hours i had a day and just slowly quit the game

9:02 "It's alright not to play it everyday. Since it's just a game, you can stop forcing yourself if it's hard on you to keep that up. Rather, it'll just pile up unnecessary stress if you limit yourself into playing just that one game since there are so many other games out there. So, do come back and play it to your heart's content when the major patch kicks in, then stop it to play other games before you got burnt out, and then come back for another major patch. This will actually make me happier, and in the end, I think this is the best solution I can answer for keeping your motivation up for the game." - Yoshi P director of ffxiv A much more healthy and consumer friendly approach to game design I think, the polar opposite of lost arks systems where sometimes you can feel like a hostage. My hope for the next year is that they focus less on player retention, addiction and fomo.

It's great you're still part of the LA community, Sywo :) Bravo. I hope you are not sacrificing your marriage because of Lost Ark. To me, the game design is awesome, but the sheer number of things you need to do, to collect, in order to build your character, and how SG "forces" you to do things just made the game not enjoyable anymore. I was genuine excited for the game when it launched, but after a couple of months, I got burnt out from LA so much and never wanted to experience that type of feeling again. Good luck to Lost Ark. It's very unfortunate.

I put 1300 hours into this game and before the new year - I had to take a break. I was quite sick of doing the same guardian raid/chaos dungeons 12 times each day. The mere thought of Pheons made me sick and to be honest, the market in general. And the lack of skins. Because of these reasons, I am not tempted to come back anymore. One thing I miss though is the combat. They nailed that part of the game.

Why did you do 12 GR/CD a day? There's this thing called rest bonus and stronghold voyages which cuts that 24 runs/day down to 6. You also get the freedom to decide to do more one day or less on another. Also if you aren't bad on gold you can completely ignore GR as well. I will never understand people that run all these extra GRs for piddly gold(4x less than a rested run) if they don't find it fun.

I have just been playing slowly, many gifts expired because I did not want to just rush through the game to get to high level. Made the destroyer to start with, not knowing what I wanted to main so all chests, and rewards are still in my stash waiting to be opened. I am at about level 41 and in no hurry to get to end game. One thing I will say is that there are so many things it gets confusing. We get given stones to craft with no real understanding of what would be best for characters. Through rewards and quests we are given engraving imprints, recipes etc all of these I have left unopened until I can find a good guide on what best to do with them. As you say, yes, it is overwhelming many of the guides work on the theory that people have some knowledge about these things. In one of the guides 0 - 50 leveling it would be good if someone showed/explained what they did with equipment and all these skill items as they received them during the leveling process, may be a long video but it could be broken down into sections. May be useful to stop some that leave because overwhelmed. I followed a lot of what you did back in Aion days, keep up the good work.

Thank you for your videos Sywo. Enjoyed every single one of them in the past year. Whish you and your family all the best. On topic: I love the game. I have just under 3000 hours and 6 chars at 1500 (the 6th since literally yesterday). It has been an AMAZING journey for me, mostly because LoA doesn't gatekeep me with my guild like wow did (last and only mmo i played, until wotlk). Sometimes I do runs with my guild, teach newer players etc. but there are also weeks where I play strictly solo and basically never interact with people apart from the occasional "7-1" , "b" or "tyfp" in chat. And the game allows me to do that, which I love. I work with groups of people most days so in my private time I enjoy some peace and quite if it's possible :D The bots, DCs etc. suck we all know that and I hope things get fixed - but honestly it doesn't bother me that much. The one negative for me was the Brel release. It just felt rushed and came out at a bad time. I know at least 5 people in my guild who basically got out at that point, because they wanted to take a break and knew when they came back they would be forever behind. Other than that I'm mostly fine with everything. I have found a good way to balance the content, I raid on 3 days (2 chars per day) on the others I only do quick dailies which takes like 1-2h and then occasionally I take my time playing a new character and doing boss rush/cubes etc.

I started lost ark with playing alot of alts and I actually didn't get burned out from it, it was just so frustrating to find a group to do legion raids that I just stopped playing alts. It got so far that finding a group took longer than actually doing the run and at that point it just felt like a waste of time. I would rather do the run with 7 beginners teaching them how to do the fight than wait in the lobby and hope that there are some people who finally are joining my lobby. It didn't even matter that I used the valtan inferno title...

Don't be antisocial in a MMO. Join a guild. My guild does nearly nonstop signup raids on wed/thur/sat and if I sign up with my main 6, I can get them all done on these days. Lots of other people do statics that do the raids together in a group and they do them one after the other.

I feel you, I came from FF14 where I would do my raids and then I could do anything I wanted to as nothing was mandatory. I also would get bored as I’d achieve my objective of getting BIS and then look for other games to play. With lost Ark I enjoy it as I always have something to do when I jump online but I also feel it’s mandatory and if I am doing let’s say south Vern than I am skipping out on a raid or two that night. I never thought I would say a mmo has to much content. Or maybe it’s to much mandatory content.

I really enjoy Lost Ark but atm in the west we are in a very weird position. We just ended or are working towards getting upper relic gear doing a raid with 6 gates. Sure you don't NEED to do all 6 just only 2 technically but you lose in a lot of maths an takes a lot longer to get your relic sets. And the next content is the same raid with more gimmicks AND YOU HAVE TO BUILD A NEW SET OF ARMOR in Ancient. I feel like having to do a 6 gate raid is very exhausting specially when Brel by design you have to sit and wait a lot in g5-6 wich make overgearing unrewarding in a weird way. If we could do only 1-6 and get all the gold from other raids or do 1-2 and other 2 raids; or 1-4 and another raid that will improve a lot the burnout and exhaustion in the current end game. In my opinion, I can't wait to never do brel again she was fun the first 3 times now is the biggest chore you have to face. And this makes gatekeeping in Brel insane, and only get worst when the HM is out.

you might have 4k total hours, but don't you sometimes do other stuff while the game is open? Me and my friends all used to do it because it takes so long to log back in if you exit the game. I had 1k hours in 6 months before I quit, but probably half of that is unplayed time. I'm curious if you did the same. If so, then the hours are not as crazy as they seem. In my case it comes to about 5.5 hours a day, but realistically I've played less, so for me it really isn't anything special. My crazy gaming days were back in 2017 where I was playing 20 games of league of legends a day which take about 10 hours + queue times, dodges, remakes and champion select. Nothing can compare to that, hahah.

Ever since the ilvl 1490 content release, I have been feeling overwhelmed with the game. I used to play 12 characters every single day. Now I barely have the time and energy for more than two. Even with a very good group Abrelshud Gate 1 through 6 still take 3 hours. Imagine.. we are sitting there for over an hour just waiting for mechanics to end, so that we can go back to punching the bosses. Gate 5 and 6 especially are such a waste of time with their mechanics and cutscenes. It adds a lot of stress for me. Five characters ready for G6 and I just want to turn off the game for the rest of the week after doing it with just one character. Angry Dragon Carl is a an anti-fun guardian raid design. The required battle item investment is incredibly high for an underwhelming reward, both materials and fun/excitement. And even a good run takes way too long for a content, that you are expected to do 12 times per day. 1minute solo Deskaluda versus 5minutes Carl. Why would I bother with Carl? The materials from him are worthless aswell, thanks to the community. Look at me rambling and complaining. The music in my background changed to a song, that I am very interested in right now (Trigun Stampede's Opening, "Tombi" by Kvi Baba), which made me realize, how I have been getting way to aggravated about Lost Ark again. My point is, ever since the ilvl 1490 content release, the necessary time for just 6 characters daily and weekly has skyrocketed to a point where I feel burned out. I do enjoy playing with you, Sywo, a lot. And I also enjoy playing with my static. Beans, even with my new G6 group I am having a good enough time to not hate my life at that moment. But I am noticing how people around me are gaining distance to the game. Of my static one person won't be available for two months, due to work. Another has just come back from a two month Lost Ark break, still unsure if they want to play or not. And the last person is not excited to boot up the game anymore either. In the Abrelshud G6 group people are constantly talking about how they are glad to not play more than two or three characters, because of the time and energy investment needed. People in your twitch chat are quitting one after another for the same reasons. Adding in, I am not happy about how AGS handles our version. The company is incompetent with no limit. I reported a bug not too long ago, the reply, "Thanlk you for your feedback and the suggestion." .. I didn't give feedback nor did I make a suggestion, I reported a bug, that makes the game a pain in the butt at times. The new Smilegate leadership doesn't speak to me either. I dislike the balance direction they are heading in, ignoring classes, that need and deserve a major overhaul, to nerf things, which are only strong in super giga korean-lategame, but underwhelming in our version. I have been very frustrated with the game for almost six months now.. BUT having a streamer, whom I can watch makes this frustration a lot easier to handle. As I said, I do enjoy playing with you, and I am very thankful, that I can be part of your community. Some people are questionable, but most of them are pretty decent people. At the current content release pace, we might get Akkan in December. Lots to prepare until then. Hopefully AGS starts listening to players and will forward our feedback to Smilegate. But that is just a load of copium. I don't have anything else to play and my real life is nonexistent. So, despite my frustration and the burn out, I won't quit anytime soon. Not to forget, I am preparing for Aeromancer already. Cheers and excuse the long ramble. Thank you for being you. Thank you for your content. I appreciate you a lot!

I had a lot of fun the first 4 months but by month 6 the game was already done. Revisited a month ago and it was 100x worse, missed opportunity.

@@NorthernHarker I'm guessing it's because the op used to play primarily in PUG's instead of a static group. The PUG experience can be toxic as you will mostly be playing with people who only care about progressing as quick as possible with little regard as to whether someone is new or still learning a raid. In a static group where you play regularly with people you're familiar with there is very little chance of toxic behaviour as you all play for enjoyment and usually have more of a teamwork focused mindset.

@@NorthernHarker’ve been playing since launch. This person is discussing their own feelings. The game, attitudes, and issues within have only gotten better since this person quit. As a Mokoko (new players get a buff that is visible to everyone) all you have to do is say “hey I’m new can someone help me/answer questions/do content with me” and you will be flooded with helpers most of the time.

Just realized they said it was 100x worse when they came back a month ago. My guess is mind set issues. Korean mmos have intentional design decisions that western players don’t understand and often get annoyed about.

It's a grindfest, unfortunate because the gameplay is actually very good, but playing a mobile game on PC no thank you. T3 gets boring real fast.

for 4000 hours and 10h playtime a day average your roster is pretty bad not gonna lie, but your horizontal progression is nice.

@@eryxviper imagine that someone literally just enjoys walking and listening to the ambient sounds. ASMR style. That person could spend thousands of hours in game and the roster could perfectly be lvl 1, that person doesnt care about any level.
