, since most the active population and fun is at the max levels the game wont be fun since you meet a lack of people around your combat level
Its too late to start this game. I hope you find out for yourself before you have wasted too much time on it.
I would disagree, I had some if not the most fun at lower levels running around exploring the maps, leveling at my own pace, trying to complete warden and meteoric armor quests, helping others complete these quests at the same time, using target lock to get the bosses endgame playing are farming for alts
it's not all about endgame. Sure if you make it that far it's awesome if you get into a top clan and kill the major raid bosses. Some new players seem to see the high levels and set themselves a goal of reaching this level not realising the amount of time it takes. Its off putting when you know it will take years. Just enjoy the present, have fun doing what you want to do. Endgame is when it gets the most boring with hours of camping, don't rush to this level. Make some friends in a low level clan and help each other progress. Plat is the easy option its not a necessity.
how is it fun being a level 50 noob with no lux competing with level 50 alts with heroic rejuv amulets and golden bodkins/golden lux?
you cannot kill any bosses under level 70 without lux, you will just die instantly, you cant get warden / meteoric unless your in a good clan or have a decent amount of gold.
endgame is where it gets exciting as the unfairness closes and it comes down to skill not the amount of plat bought, since you would have spent like 5 years grinding without buying any plat you might have enough to afford the endgame lux items, yes the ridiculously overpriced items.
Honestly this game is so pay2win its not funny anymore, in the sv days the most expensive item was 200k, what is it now? like 8-10m?
i'm not trying to bash the game, it was once a great game, however, i dont know whats happened anymore, it feels like social aspect of the game is now gone, it seems like everything is hard to kill and the whole game is based around a super long boring grind and the amount of irl money you want to chuck away.
ever since the release of the big update 3, i have been much dissapointed in the game and i have lost trust in otm.
