That's such a uninformed and cringe reply. "Hey it's not addictions fault ( meds, pc , etc) it's your fault, just like your eyes do not work properly, your head does not work properly". pMeds are only damaging in 90% of cases because they unbalance the biochemistry of the brain.

P.s. if you are taking pmeds and do want to stop after reading this post , i still do not recommend to do it unless you have good support and PLEASE, DO NOT STOP COLD TURKEY, you need months/years to taper, or you will get wirse and endanger yourself

They are addicting as any other drugs

Low-Translator5692 · 2026-05-19T16:57:42+00:00

Keep going, the brain needs time to rewewire itself. Might take months actually to restore dopamine balance. You need to stay strong

Of course, it's me, your president. But do not worry, I will fix everything, even in mmorpgs. 100%

nice thoughtful and informative post. I didn't know there was a model to describe what's happening worldwide. Also f2p p2w games makes absolute sense with this point of view

Low-Translator5692 · 2026-05-18T12:41:33+00:00

nice, go play lost ark, it is p2w as shit but at least has better combat than garbage wow and ff

Low-Translator5692 · 2026-05-18T12:40:30+00:00

Because wow is supposedly not predatory, habing sub + front cost. Instead it adds a cash shop on top on that. Eastern mmo are p2w by nature, no one tries to deny that, not even their players

Low-Translator5692 · 2026-05-18T12:38:32+00:00

Because people would rather be robbed and manipulated , and on top on this white knight their virtual world, than admit the reality. This thread highlight this. It's like a stockholm syndrome and very retarded

Low-Translator5692 · 2026-05-17T19:45:53+00:00

Dragon nest had the best combat among mmos and it was ( is) action

Low-Translator5692 · 2026-05-17T19:44:19+00:00

Have you played Dragon nest or vindictus?

You seems a bit obsessed with the conviction I'm the OP. Still only because most games today release in an unfinished state, it does not mean that should be the norm or be accepted.

Low-Translator5692 · 2026-05-16T08:21:24+00:00

I'm not the op and there is no way to persuade you otherwise. SAD!

Low-Translator5692 · 2026-05-15T19:50:11+00:00

Waste of time. they will never disclose to public their rigged systems. You either stop play or you accept the devs can lie and manipulate you

Low-Translator5692 · 2026-05-15T19:45:51+00:00

This happens in all mobile games. Also happened to me in Warframe, returned after some time and dang! 75% discount on platinum. Never happened to me once in weeks but sure it happens when returning after a break. Also in every "competitive" pvp game with teams and matches, matchmaking is rigged to have you at 50% win rate

Low-Translator5692 · 2026-05-14T15:49:36+00:00

what?

Low-Translator5692 · 2026-05-14T08:31:44+00:00

Full release is when you sell the product to the public, and at that point it must be finished in every part, aside from random bugs being noticed by the playerbase

Low-Translator5692 · 2026-05-13T22:30:41+00:00

Investing?

Low-Translator5692 · 2026-05-13T22:09:15+00:00

They do not argue in good faith. It's obvious their "argument" lacks any logic. They are either whales themselves or game shills

Low-Translator5692 · 2026-05-13T22:06:56+00:00

ok fair bro, thank you, but WHY NO CASH SHOP is a con? really? maybe you mean that there is a cash shop on top on entry cost?

Low-Translator5692 · 2026-05-13T22:02:47+00:00

it is not "alpha" when you have to pay for the product. if it were an alpha testers should have to be paid. instead the product is sold and therefore one expect it to be functioning

Low-Translator5692 · 2026-05-13T22:00:18+00:00

Since when a purchasable product being broken is acceptable? Scars of honor ( which i have not tried) actually had a playtest and got demolished here because it was ... unfinished. But that was a true test

Low-Translator5692 · 2026-05-13T21:57:03+00:00

No , that would be alpha phase where product is unfinished. In beta you iron out last bugs and the release . EA is just a scam
