alwar104: I just saw a reddit post about a new player that wanted to try the game and he got banned after 10 minutes of playing. So yeah

DSoraK: i love my boi stoopzz, but he's also out of touch with what the problem with the game is, a least where i left it, and that is that the gap between p2w and f2p is so big that if you want to play as f2p you need to make lost ark your fulltime job, and if you want to pay, you pay your entire salary

i've never felt an issue with dailies or how many raids we can do or whatever, it's always been the fact that everyone's ruthlessly trying to get in a group with their rat alt to get an extra penny, people begging for invites, people sucking up to people because they are a support main, the entire game is a hostile environment as a result of the greedy p2w system and it's only covered by a thin veil of niceties people say to each other to get on their good side so they can still find groups

i wish loa was not what it is, but regrettably, wishes don't work, i left after like idk, 6k?7k hours? fk it man, it's not worth it, you play 10 hours a day to have fun 2-4 hours of the week when you're on your main, and you STILL won't get your main in a lobby if you're not a support when new tier comes out as f2p

and just like scarra i too think about lost ark, like an ex girlfriend that gave really good head but her personality was dogshit and she cut herself

meowcheeses9870: W Scarra he's such a humble guy

___IG: The "casual" lost ark is more hardcore than the hardcore in other games

AnoBananoSRO: Dude, the game absolutely has dailies. Maybe it doesnt for me because I literally have all unas, adventures tomes, islands, hearts, omnium stars, masterpieces, music boxes, seeds, sea bounties and bloodclaw charts... but for a new player its ass. It's like telling a new BDO player the game doesnt have dailies while he didnt do his adventure tome which on its own take couple of months. At the end its irrelevant. The major complain of most people that quit out of all my friends is the 6 character limit. Not that its to few, but they dont want to play alts or 5 more of the same character. The biggest QoL change this game could get is have all weekly 18 raids be doable on 1 character. Join a raid on reset day and wipe. You can see the frustration people have instantly because you are wiping on the 1st raid OUT OF 18. Last week guy went "I don't know what I am doing here when expidition 33 is waiting on me, I cant do 18 raids this week". He alt f4 in the middle of the run.

zen9468: they need more solo modes (without nerfed loots) so that people can progress on their own and I think that ll bring players and also populate the party raids.

QuasimodoGrimo: Problem with lost ark is that when u want to play some other game ,GTA6 on release for example ,u feel bad couse u are falling behind (loosing money) . So game is basically as work instead of game.

mathew2801: I tried to go back to the game because I wanted to try Echidna and other new raids and also because the combat is really good, but what the frick is ark passive and I can't even do the quest to access it.

carlzen5540: it will never be good. its the monetizing and greedy company.

bigsisderpina: The day I'll recommend LoA is when you can do story without having to stop for days just to hone OLD content/gear. Without needing powerpasses obviously, because it skips a lot of important parts of story for those that care; you can't go back to do them ever again unless you make another fresh account from the ground up. Yes, I'm specifically referring to Praeteria arc and even the arcs where you meet many important characters before starting Elgacia.

I know YT comments are dentge sometimes and are often from people who have bad memories of the game, but this is coming from an active player.

leukos22: I haven't played in years, I just occasionally pop in to check Stoopz's videos every couple of months because I truly loved that first 9-12 months of Lost Ark

Tokiomy: I playd for 5k from release since about 3 months ago.

Havent loged on since.

It was fun while it lasted,I hope that one day It will turn around for the best and I will return to it.

RIP till that day,I had a greate amazing journey and I regret nothing,not the time,nor the money I spend,but nothing lasts forever

YasRem1206: PLEASE for gods sake, I DONT WANT TO SPEND 2 HOURS TO FIND A SINGLE LOBBY THAT DISBANDS AFTER 10MIN BCZ SOMEONE DIED, HORRIBLE experience, absolutely HORRIBLE, They must make finding lobbies easier for new players, its impossible for me

oorangees: A single line high accessory is now 200k gold. 1% upgrade per week

SAYU192: I play both BDO and Lost Ark, basically alternating between the two, or at least I used to. But I think Lost Ark's combat is better for the sole reason that it's substantially more responsive than BDO's. BDO should have better combat, but going from LA to BDO is like night and day, every time I play BDO I feel like my character is underwater or something, because many abilities take too long or don't come out immediately, and there's always this weird variance in animation speed that seems to be server based. Been like that for the past year or so.

HeartabyssKoi: I haven’t played Lost Ark for a year, but my main complaint has always been I wish they would make the path to upgrading independent from raiding and just let the raids be an enjoyable experience.

I’ve never understood the mindset that raids need to be hard and you have to do them in order to progress your gear. We can have hard raids but if that’s all I can do to get geared and I can’t clear it if I don’t have the gear then what’s the point?

ye_nope: Just remove the mandatory alt farming, and make playing solo characters meta. People should only be playing alts because they want to try different classes and it should optional.

Rock_Lagoon: The problem is that everything is time gated. You're forced to log in and play several accounts almost daily. That's not fun. Also there is no good way to socialize ingame and meet new people.

Buddy_Squirrel: Maplestory

Grimaldo354: The game is good, the community is crap.

f12rTheSniPeR: the problem is that ags doesn't have the skills and money to manage mmo games. They had the opportunity to take lost ark from smilegate and create their own version like they did in china, instead they just copy and paste everything. If you have to communicate with them to make the game better by reporting, bots always answer you and not real people. When they make a mistake in banning people, because everything is managed by a bot, they don't have the minimum dignity to check if the appeal request is true or not. The truth is that ags are the first ones who gatekeep players in a game destined to die trying to make you spend as much money as possible. The only way to bring players back is to risk like they do in china, if it goes badly never mind, at least they tried.

mugiwarasenju_4420: love u stoopzz

wavechaser55: We are all scarra waiting for LA to comeback

When I came back to do Theamine it cost me $4,500.00 to do it. Impossible for average players to comeback.

oosik411: Lost Ark really isn’t an mmo, it’s a mobile game. Might have done better as a subscription model like WoW or FF14.
