Why I Love This Game (or FTGIQ)

Lol, I guess I should just rename the thread to: This game sucks ass, fuck y'all!

Rite you are.

exploiting gayme mechanics

Hm..seed prayer...absurd jewelry quality..

Seems like more game mechanics were abused in older versions of the game then now...

I love this game because it is about community. Making friends and enemies and striving to survive the harsh world of the Hearth and chisel out your own small empire from carrots and rocks.

oh how i miss w3, in retrospect it was probably the beginning of the end then. as i've read and agreed with what burg said a few times "the violence of the past few worlds is for the most part meaningless, fags killing one another etc"

having a char with high smith*psy is not abusing game mechanics in any way shape or form, thats like saying you're a bagaouser if you mine with more than 200 str. seed prayer was also not an exploit, but having a world last that long with the possibility to utilize said prayer was likely unforeseen by j&l.

There is enough of you crying about senseless killing, why don't you all get together and try to do something about it. This game is what you make it. I'd also like to point out that you QQ about the killing but I'm sure you contribute just as much... Just saying.

Who is whining about the killing? Reading comprehension is apparently not your strong suit.

I have no problem with killing, being killed (though that has yet to happen) or anything involving murder or death. My issues remain the same as ever: The lack of the ability to accomplish justice, the use and tactical advantages of vaults vs proper towns, a game that grants griefers many, many advantages over any other archetype.

There used to be traders travelling the world, people looking for new villages to join and flourish with, a robust, constantly evolving economy, politics, intrigue and fun. In Congress Assembled used to have threads dedicated to resurrected faction leaders, encroachment by one faction onto another's resource point, raiding/defense, rangers justice, threats, village dramas, internal strife and Big Faction vs Big Faction angst. Now there are thirty three thread versions of the same boring shit involving a group of assholes I couldn't care less about if I tried, griefing a group of noobs I couldn't pity more if I tried.

YAWN.

This game is no longer a free form MMO where you can play how you choose and still have a viable chance at enjoying and surviving the world. There is only one path that allows for any type of continued existence and advancement, which has killed the community and reduced those still playing to a breakdown of 99% griefers/raiders - 1% hearthlings that just joined.

That was really well put, I don't think anyone could have said it better than that.

This is probably the only game that creates its own history and politics, and for that this is the best game ever.

It is weird right? They were trying to pin that yellow star to my jacket too that I wanted to play Farmville blabla. Well, when one has no arguments one has to resort to nonsense. For example like hundred and hundred of manhours invested of an entire town to raise its smith is an exploit and abusing the shit out of a broken combat mechanic everyday to kill innocents isn't.

Can you believe there were people living in Nople with nothing more than a fence around there posessions and guess what? Nobody ever touched them, because actual political defense mechanics worked. Today Ainran and friends would walk all over that claiming this is all fine and dandy.
