Endgame: It's boring

[JamesFatio]

Hours Played: 116
So I've been in the endgame for about 2 weeks and I've farmed up the ultimate descendant I wanted (Ultimate Ajax). Beat all the hard intercepts you can solo and have been farming catalysts to max out my ajax. All I can say is, I'm bored.
I'm not interested in farming any other ultimate descendants or ultimate guns and I'm 3 catalysts away from maxing out my ult ajax. I'm literally 3 days away from maxing out my mod slot upgrades(the only thing holding me back is research time) and honestly after that I don't know what else to do. The endgame is really dull and if you farmed up everything you wanted you end up not wanting to play anymore. Nothing engaging about the current endgame.

That's the neat part about service games: You can just pause and come back when there are events or more content in general you're interested in.

Ah, now I gotta find something else to play.

But that is with nearly all games. People play it 10 hours a day, so they are tired of it soon. See game like desert, if you eat sweets all time, you get sick of it.

sounds like you where chasing the white dragon then found out its not real in video games. and now youve just spent 116 hours doing a drug and you didn't even like the drug, its best to play video games because you love the game play not the reward chasing. just a silly personal opinion.

They NEED something other then just farming to keep most players.

Most games don't even offer 100 hours of game play. So congrats on getting that much value out of it.

If you get at least the dollar value in 1hr per dollar spent, the game has gotten good value, if not, the game isn't worth that much. There was one game that wanted $40, but didn't even have 1hr of gameplay not speed running (45mins going slow, 15mins going fast) ><

No I enjoyed the game up until the point I got everything I wanted. Now its just, well done for me.
But I'll probably just play this game every time a content update happens.

First of all, what they needed most was to test the server stability.

And now that this seems to work they'll be soon starting to add new content. That's always how it works, though if you hate grinding, then it will most likely not gonna be better for you anytime soon.

Though keep in mind, that the majority of players consists of casuals, who don't put in 6 hours of work every single day, so you you'll never gonna find peace with a game, if your expectations are that unrealistic. Maybe play Warframe in the meanwhile, because there you've 11 years of content to catch up

No I know its boring at the end. This is one of those enjoy the journey type of experiences because the destination has no solid value to offer. Its fun until a certain point, but I guess its like that for most games.

Makes sense. I'm not against giving them time to improve, I just hope they don't just copy and paste more warframe 'inspired' content. Something unique to this game would be cool, but thats me being optimistic. Just enjoy what there is currently until you don't enjoy it no more, then forget about this game for 3 months and come back to a fresh feeling game(hopefully)

I feel like it's the same with grind heavy games. Play a lot, get burnt out, come back after a while. Did the same for Warframe, played a bunch and I got burnt out and took a long break. Now I just come back to these types of games occasionally to set a small goal to work towards and have fun.

I like feedback like this. This is my first looter shooter and I've never experienced this before.
The only thing that came close to this is albion online but that has pvp and guild stuff so it can keep you hooked, got like 1.8k hours in that game.
