Don't do it as awful as OSRS - MMOexpshop - 09-21-2019
I think somebody reminiscent of write this whole comment the time'wasted' on the game. I've seen people who loved the sport say similar things, but most of what you have said paints you as both ignorant and dumb because quite frankly your main beef with the game is actually just a personal preference of game play.You can not call my observation that the game is only grinding an opinion with OSRS gold. It is objectivly accurate, rather than in a way that is good. Some one said that it's"as grindy as you want it to be," and I really had a chuckle out loud. That is true in the sense that, yes, I really could grind in the game. Or walk off and I could CHOOSE to turn off the game. What a choice? Preference may be a factor in my opinion; but there's at least one quantitative factor that can always be used to quantify the values, irrespective of preferance of a game.
That step is only: content / alternativly, or time: articles / price. A"game" like runescape has hardly any content, and a huge price. Therefore it is poor, objectivly. You might ALWAYS be playing something. You might be brainwashed enough to state :"No! There is HUNDREDS of hours of content in the game" Or a lot of a sociopath to think:"Another players ARE the content!" But you'd be objectivly wrong that your oponion has no value. That's not content, that's a slog. If you play a private OSRS server that has the grining turned down to a good level, you'll immediately realize that the game just has about 40 hours of articles in it complete (Plus minigames, but those are by definition different games).
Tell me : Why does it take a million hours to get to 99 in all stats? Why are the fall rates for gear low? Why is the econamy STILL busted? Why is Runescape so blatantly boring? Money. Money is the answer.To access 90% of the content, you will need to pay a monthly fee. This fact discredits the game; Why does you cost based on time and also simotaniously wase your time? Because, of course, it wants to sink in it's skinner-box claws into your brain and find out how much time it can take you (and your wallet) for a ride. MMOs don't need to do that, and they shouldn't. Don't do it as awful as OSRS. Whenever I see a few poor brainwashed soul shield Runescape, I'm immediately reminded of someone using stockholm syndrome, or even someone at a toxic relationship with an abusive spouse.
OSRS has trapped you in the monetary ploy of it, holding your character and your lender hostage supporting a subscription. It conditions you the degree up sound's jingle is the only way that you can extract joy out of your experience to buy RuneScape gold. You have been somehow conditioned by them into thinking you like doing the identical thing over and over again for no real reason. Nobody is naturally like that. It doesn't make sense; it is irrational to do exactly the exact same thing. It is the type of thing generally deployed as a punishment to criminals. And you grind, because the sport was precision-designed to give you a fraction of it is content upfront, and drip-feed you the rest.
