Sorry if this comes off like a biased rant Seriously, I question myself daily on this issue. I hate practically EVERY PORTION of the gameplay... Yet I grind and play for hours each day -------------------------------------- I have complaints at the linear character stat design Since ALL characters are virtually the same. Beside lowering or raising a secondary stat. -------------------------------------- NO real challenge for almost all bosses(Beside Bean) Since you can just auto-pot and use over-powered characters Bosses stand no chance if you're just the right level And you need no specialized equips... Just MORE POWER - and no tanks -------------------------------------- Lack of PvP, or real armor customization. Armor only raises stats - none of it does more Like more protection from specific monster types Or even give abilities to improve other ones -------------------------------------- Along with the abysmal general public. Who live in the idea that they're the best in the world And that maps ARE OWNED by them for afking ...let alone how lacking a secondary stat makes them "God" Let alone the leechers who kill the whole concept of an MMO TO GRIND AND MAKE FRIENDS :| -------------------------------------- But saying this shows I do NOT like this type of game ...it feels more like AIM + cute Korean MMO graphics YET I STILL PLAY IT. And I have played it for 2.5+ years -------------------------------------- I question you - why do YOU still play? And...why do you think I'm still here? >.> And now something completely different Edit: I fail at bolds, sorry

Because this game is like a drug and forces you to keep playing.

SIKxSIN said: "if u miss WoW so much then go play it. we dont need ppl like you here" ? I never touched WoW in my life. But I can understand the assumption since it's so common. I liked Ragnarok more, but the real server is filled with bots - and the Chaos server costs too much ;X
