Yeah, it's like they take back all the levels/skill progression in order to ramp up difficulty.

It's bullshit.

The endgame is still evolving. So many technologies, innovations and worlds unknown out there.

 

And there are 554324 of other features I could add here that make real life far more superior MMORPG than any of these hundreds of MMORPG's that been coming out over the last decade that refused to even add one of  those features that I named above.

Props to UO and SWG-Pre CU who at least had SOME of those features back like PLAYER housing and player economy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

End game kinda sucks in a  "Real life"  its more mid range lvls oriented :))

My life consists of doctors appointments, organ transplants, and probably being dead before I hit 35 so its really not all that great.

Bah, real life sucks.

Can't play as a girl if the random number generator decided your avatar is a boy. Well you can but it HURTS!

Your avatar model if not maintained with vigor will detoriate rapidly until it is a white hairy blob that has its sprint time reduced and recovery time increased!

Not just the female models jiggle when they run.

Day/night cycle is way to slow, it feels like it takes an entire day for godssake.

The in game economy is just a giant money sink and earning any credits at all takes some major grinding.

The SWG village run to be jedi might have been a long grind but just to grind a CEO in the his "real life" game. DECADES I tell you!

No tech support and the game designer hasn't shown himself on the forums in millenia!

Install time is 9 months!

Respawn times vary depending on faction, talk about unbalanced!

Lots of self-righteous vigilantes who despite the server clearly being open world PvP insists on enforcing their no PK rules.

You can be forced to take part in warzones PvP.

Micro managment hell, forcing you to take care of all your avatar needs constantly as if you are playing The Sims.

Path finding on avatar goes to hell if you swallow to many morale boost potions.

Ranged classes are insanely overpowered compared to melee.

Grinding a proper melee class takes ages and lots of hardwork while ranged just spams their single attack.

No infinite ammo.

No auto-sprint.

Depending on faction, your endgame is either waiting for eternity for new content to be added by some developer with  a mesiah complex, 79 noobs to tutor, redoing the entire game over and over till you get it right or the game just removes itself without a trace and your ranks and achievements are soon purged from the system.

Pet cat character refuses to follow everywhere or even anywhere.

No flying mounts.

Mount costs are insane!

Player housing is totally unimaginitive

No F2P

Cancelling your sub is against the law!

Need I go on? Real life the game SUCKS! I predict it will be shutdown in half a year at the most.

Biggest free to play ripoff EVER. If you want to do anything remotely fun you have to put in cash to access and it's only TEMPORARY access. I quit years ago.

Don't worry, it speeds up the longer you've been in-game. Eventually you'll be crying it's too short.

Not true, you are confusing "most people in the US" with everyone. And even in the US there are plenty of hippies that are looking for other stuff than gold and gear (mostly consumables as "weed" or weird buffs like "love" but still).

Been there, done that, and you know what? It still sucks. Fun for a couple of years, but after that total bore. Even more than doing dailies. :(

Downsides of the game:

1. I find the graphics very disapointing.

2. The class system takes way to long to learn and for some reason every now and than a bug appears making you lose your class. This oftenly is bound to the poor economic system in this game.

3. The combat isn't impresive. With the perma death its not for everyone. And the free for all PvP is just boring, you win and than you get banned for 18 years, i mean wtf? Don't implant full PvP when you make it contradict your rules of agreement.

4. The community suuuuuuucks. You hardly get help and most players only think about themselfs. General chat is full of pwnzor l33t talkers as well.

5. Insane subscription payment.

6. Rather low lvl cap with 75. Although some people manage to get higher lvls, some even over the 100, guess they are cheaters.

Good things:

1. Unique character creation. A feature that is very fun to do. And its always a suprise how the next character will look like. You can mix two characters and get the best sides of both...or the worst sides. Always a suprise, also gotta keep in mind the previous players from that guild. So the next characters can get many buffs or debuffs the older guild players had. Very fun feature, brings a challenge for some.

2. Huge world to explore and rumors say that with the new expension pack somewhere later in this millenium we get to explore the universe around the world ourselfs.

3. Lots of customisation options. Many hairdressings to choose from, many clothes and different kind of armors. You can walk in something trendy and modern. Or just wear a knights armor.

4. Many classes to choose from. Even though it is rather bugged there still is plenty too choose from. And if you are lucky you find one that isn't boring but really fun to do.

5. Housing! Finally a game where you can own a house again!

I'm playing on max difficulty setting by having children.

Know any good exploits?

yeah but it's pay to play + cash shop - not interested

I'd get into the political aspect of the game, but it's pay to win.

I'll stay in my holodeck.

Disclaimer: applied only to members of "developed nations". Heavily depends on "chosing parents" and "luck" skills. Otherwise you are lucky if you can get a whole locker all for yourself, without need to share with other players.

Ownership of property is at the sole discretion of the ruling faction.

I haven't reached that part of the game yet. But i believe it has something to do with collecting a lot of food, drinks, class training (also known as education i believe), shelter and a lot of money.

But it should be easyer with the punishment skill, did you unlock that one yet? If you want to discipline them you can give them a wide arrange of punishments like being grounded or no candy for a week. Be aware depending on the childs parameters one punishment has a better effect than the other. The removed the more harsh punishments in some regions of the massive world. Like it used to be alright to give them a correction kick under the ass but they removed that from most regions, so just becareful on some punishments there is a ban (agian whats with implanting stuff and ban people for it when using, remove it devs!!!).

Oh and do a lot of those "themepark" dungeons. It seems to have a positive effect on these NPC childs. Makes them easyer to control and the love parameter fills up faster that way. Meaning less trouble for a day at least.

Goodluck with that difficulty, though i believe you mostly only have to endure it for about 18 lvls.

Well i said it was in the game. But not everyone grinds for it. And some regions/factions indeed make it harder to own a ingame house. Than again those regions do stimulate being creative, many cases you collect a few objects and make something you can call shelter.

Killing 10 rats when you are 1 is not recommended.
