Quitting Mabinogi for... I don't know how long. I am just tired of logging in to do pretty much nothing. Between unfair late-game content and the rampant reforge elitists, I have little desire to play. Farewell laggy hamster servers, I probably will not miss you.
I would fix RP missions. By fix I mean REMOVE them. I made a thread about them recently. No one has yet told me what story telling value they add. They are annoying, frustrating, and poorly put together. I am playing Mabi to play MY FANTASY CHARACTER as advertised by Mabi itself. I didn't come to play some underpowered weakling that is barely equipped to leave their digital houses, let alone fight anything even remotely threatening.
My recent point of frustration is Gen 15 Whiskey is thicker than Water. I wish that the dev that thought up this mission will forever have one sock slide down their leg for the rest of their days.
Your argument on removing all RPs because some of them are bad or really difficult is absolutely irrational. Its like saying "I do not like some politicians, I want all politicians to die". That is such horrible logical reasoning! There are definitely some RPs that are absolutely amazing. Example: G1 Mores, innate chaincasting including fireball. Something we do not have even today.
Everyone is on the same playing field when we play RPs, and we play as that character. Again, I've said it, and everyone else said it in your original discussion, all RP quests are possible to complete.
These characters in RPs are telling us a story, so we play as them. If you are so bent on playing "My Fantasy Life", don't play any generation quest, why are you playing them in the first place? They're filled with story!
A more rational complain would be "Make G8's RPs more easier" and "Remove the G15 Whiskey is thicker than Water, the Monkey Island reference is out of place". Was that so hard?
I got it! Make ALL prizes untradable! Or at least, it makes it more inconvenient for alt/bot/things to abuse the prizes. Maybe make it bank transferable thought, that would be fair.
I am a firm believer that paying for cosmetics (and conveniences [to an extend but that's another story]) in a free to play game is okay. Otherwise, it becomes paying to win/proceed/skip. Paying for gachapon for fancy clothings (thats what people go for, featured items) and the style tab is absolutely fair; because they do not impact your ability to play the game. Paying for the style tab to avoid durability loss just to look nice falls under this.
I can smell what the future hold so I'll respond to them now:
Anyone who argues "I dun wanna pay" needs to remember that this is a free to play game.
"It should be free because they get most of their money from gachapon sales"; that's like saying "I want free keyboards because the electronics stores get most of their money from laptop sales." Just no.
"Sometimes you get package deals like that"; you, the consumer, do not decide the discount deals, the sellers do.
I never saw the appeal of wings. I've always thought of wings as a representation of in-game power. Deity and spirit characters in the story comes to mind. There are also Champions (rank 1 Paladins) and Demigod transformation that gives the character wings. When cosmetic wings rolled in, they stop being a symbol of power and became peacock feathers.
