Celtic Heroes

If you want to get anywhere with end game you have to neglect some real life things or sometimes be single haha. It's so hard to text someone and play.

That is a pretty accurate account of the life of an endgame CH player. I do wish OTM takes their customers more seriously and with respect.

Yes, because getting up at 3 AM; taking an "extended" poop break at work; parking the car on the side of the road on the way to the dentist so you can kill a CH boss just makes sense.

It's the respectable thing to do.

Because It's a duty.

Thats not what Im saying, but that is how OTM designed the game, and when they announce a reset and go dark for almost 2 hours, they should be aware of the effects to their players. Yes, players chose to play this way. Whether you agree or not is not the point, amd you can get off your high horse now.

Yep, people at the US west coast did wake up at 3am so they can join the reset raids, but from OTMs point of view, it's irrelevant and they can just do whatever they want because they really dont quite respect what their players have to do or go through during these times.

In that regard, OTM is brilliant. Unless it's that way for other MMOs, I can't think of any other leisure activity or video game someone would lose sleep over. When the game is addicting, it's crazy the things people miss out on or restructure their lives for. It's not until the game doesn't have the same excitement, that you realize almost how insane and controlling it is.

Oh MMORPG addiction is very real and most first time players succumb to it, More experienced players have learned how to balance gaming and real life, not saying it's easy but those who have been addicted to MMO games in the past such as Everquest or World of Warcraft recognize these kinds of symptoms. I remember in my WoW days, I'd spend all night raiding with our guild and then another 4-5 hours of pvp battlegrounds until the morning the next day. Then I'd drive 75 miles to work with 30 min sleep, that wasn't healthy at all. We have had a few of our members quit CH because it did affect their work/family and I can truly empathize because I've been in the same situation 10+ years ago.

What's unfortunate is that a mobile MMORPG has lots of opportunities for the developer to make it so that players don't need to spend hours upon hours online like a PC game. The beauty of mobile games is that players should be able to sneak in some play time whenever they have free time throughout the day. All these camping and waking up in the middle of the night doesn't contribute to the longevity of players and not very many can sustain this kind of gaming. The change to 36-hour respawns only further exacerbated the problem, and OTM has absolutely no clue that they are killing their hardcore playerbase.

I remember when my Head Chef sent me home for using my phone in class to help on a Mordi raid when he was demonstrating something... learnt my lesson, never again

All very good points. However otm didn't create the clan rivalry that demands bosses be timed, and killed on spawn.
If the clans worked together, players against the game, not against each other as a few have said from time to time - then you could schedule, plan and relax and play.
Aware that this is a pretty far fetched concept, one that does not work when certain types of humans are involved ;p

Yeah it sucked that the reset didn't happen as planned, i was poised and ready. Lucky it was only 10pm for me. But issues can happen, and what should have been better was communication to players from otm. An in game message as well.

The way I see what you guys are saying is that people are blaming otm for a small mixup in resets or updates or whatever the case may be and all bosses are spawning. I'm gonna make 2 points. First of all, what i believe i read was people were blaming otm for ''messing up'' and those people were interrupting their own IRL lives for a game. In my opinion its not OTM's fault for making an amazing game, its the players fault for how they wanna spend their life playing it. You won't get criticized if you miss a boss cause at work, or late to Necro because you are driving home. My 2nd point is OTM can make resets but no idea why people stop their lives for it and complain about say, a reset being canceled? 10/10 gaurentee a ton of players who are agreeing with those messages or the points being made dont understand anything about the work that goes behind running celtic heroes. This is just under the general assumption i read this all correctly of course

So cut OTM some slack, maybe sometimes they arent at their best or other times they are trying very hars, doesnt mean we gotta get on OTM about things a lot of us don't understand (cause ik a lot of us don't, including me). And if you are one of
those people who are ruining relationships due to game or hardships are coming about, take a break or find a better solution and balance your gaming life.

I agree with Sly. Managing our respective addictions and balancing how much we dedicate to Celtic is our responsibility and not Otm's. Admittedly I have logged during work to help with bosses or ensure we keep times, but that is on me, not the game set up. Lately I have gotten better at telling myself that someone else is capable of handling a problem or helping with a boss if I don't log. So let's just focus on balancing out our lives rather than on pinning it all on otm.
