Dumb that activity cards force PvP

[nzguzzi]

Come on devs, you have given PvE players no way to complete these cards which is just silly.

[fauxpas]

Surprised? The devs have always attempted to "encourage" a crossover between PvE and PvP, something I think is probably caused by some of the devs still being enamored by their original vision for the game before it was changed to PvE for profitability.


However, since I refuse to play seasons maybe you can confirm or dispell the rumor that you can buy 'season xp' for cash.

Literal minutes ago you were talking about how great the seasonal content was... This came full circle fast.

Well, to be fair, it's possible they enjoyed the content itself, just not the grindy reward system.

The card bingo game thing was also interesting.

I mean, I guess he said 'interesting instead of 'good.'

True, I personally read the two threads as meaning they liked the idea of the bingo cards, tried the "finish a line and use Azoth to reset" trick I saw someone mention, but I speculate PvP Spots are common enough to make that trick not really practical.

Regardless, forced pvp will do nothing but harm the game. I think AGS is assuming if more non-pvp focused people play pvp, it will balance the field and make it more enjoyable for the pvp-casuals. It seems like a thinly veiled attempt making the game servers seem more populous for group based content (pve and pvp).

Would be okay if this ♥♥♥♥ game actually had balanced PVP

It would make things more palatable, but I don't believe people should be forced to do something they don't enjoy in a game ... probably the best option would be have two "cards", one PvE and one PvP and let you finish whichever you wish.

Actually most players are heavily focused to PvE and barely dabble in occasional PvP.

And what percentage of players are involved in that activity?

If they wanted to create a crossover between PVP and PVE they should have created class balance and integrated it into the game rather than made it a sad mini game. This is the first MMO I gave up on pvp because I dont like being forced to play a particular class and build. It became obvious early on that they dont know what they are doing or just dont care about the pvp aspect.

It didn't use to be that bad as scaling used to be much better but the devs listened to certain YouTubers who complained that they would lose to characters half their level which lead to our current gear based PvP.
