davlar9714: Man, you know it’s gotten real bad if players like this guy is considering quitting. I already knew after Zeals quit that we were going down a bad road, I just didn’t expect it to be this bad.

Oh well, nothing good lasts forever I guess. I’ll play as long as i’m having fun, just casually enjoying the game at the moment, but i’ll quit if there’s a better game or Lost ark mobile is a better experience.

Thanks for the info as always TKG.

1NabbinatoR: it has been 3 years of rant feedback, so i kinda dont have much else to say. imha be completly honest the biggest problem of this game in west lost ark has become the community not even the raid itself because even if they add paradise, nerf all cost, if the raid entry level is 1680 the community will make it min 1740. to clear it as fast as human possibile, to grind more. i hate this mentality. i do not play the game to make EVEN my homework a dps race every single week with dps meters inspections, leaderboard and harassnent, people go crazy the moment you do zdps even if it dosent matter because iz aegir. i see drama in almost every raid, lmao paladin did 80% uptime not 90% drama drama, ohh we did not skip mordum g1 drake drama drama brooooo

sqr26: I quit because of t4 reset.

Now when i'm back the amount of people gatekeeping of the stupid ar passive that shouldn't exist is ridiculous.

It's not the same game anymore i was enjoying to play back then...

excoupe: Imagine you are a new player. This is what you have to deal with until you are ready to do endgame raiding:

- Ability Stone

- Elixirs

- Transendence

- Cards

- Karma (Takes months to finish and avg 600k gold)

- Gems (THEY ARE TIER 2 SYSTEM) - It's insane we still don't have roster bound gems. But you Koreans are to blame for this. You cried about your "investments"

- Relic Books (Relatively new, but still extremely expensive)

.. and many more

lildjay480: And it blows my mind that this game had the nerve to introduce BOUND gold but not increase gold earning limits

cyborg7162: Aion 2 will hit lost ark in KR and that is good because competition is good for customers

KR is also tired after so many years of bullshit,

Thanks for the video TKG,

gyorfinandor7889: The problem is :

Enter NORMAL raid and even after 15 second someone start drama: u not making 200 million DPS u rat,i quit ,im not doing free bus etc.

Go HARD mode and cry there...

ggbk8584: 2 major issues: it's the most new-player unfriendly game I've ever seen, and the director is turning the game into a p2w shitfest just like Blade and Soul. Lost Ark doesn't have much longer to live tbh.

QUANTPAPA: just alone that the let new player skipp 98% of all content. and then smack them in the most borring hamstar wheel part where you just repeat 3 raids every week XD its just so bad. also the 1100 part is the worst. bc you cant do the urly abyss dungeons solo, and nobody play it so you hard stuck also the NPC dont sell progress material. but yeah for a guy like me i never swiped. im can pretty ez hit 1720 and put me alts 1680. the weekly limits is also trash. it litterly limitate you to play more. the need more solo modes for new players. ore let AI merchants come in the game so people can practice 8 man content in normal and hardmode with AI team mates. and also the need to let people be able to start any raid without 8 man. if the wanne duo mode with just a frend let them do that. the game is like 90% a coppy of maplestory 2. the only thing the did not coppy was able to start raids without 8 man XD

Hydr312: Imo season 3 is not a season 3. Its just a 2.5. There is no hard reset like it was from seasion 1 to 2. By adding seasion 3 they had to removed everything from seasion 2 and I talk about everything!

Sathona_vgr: LOA ON is going to be so interesting this Winter.

Specially after the recent comments from the Director, about not wanting to make ark grid eassier and the others.

domokun6157: Game is more than half dead with all content here in EU. couple act 2 and 3, thats it the rest is lobby sim hoping somoeone jump in.

fgmxd4957: It's okay Lost Ark 2 is coming soon and solve all the problems xD

lolzlolzz6334: Im returning player after 3 years break. Love the game right. But at this point after 1month and a half playing.. reaching 1680 was very quick with theses two events... but manage to extend CP over 1200 CP feel like it will took YEARS... Actually saving gold since 1 month... barely got enough to bring 5 alts to 1640 but in the same time my main didnt get a single boost in CP... It's really an awfull feeling, playing for months to get no upgrade... sure you save some gold to buy some stuff... but at this point i need full relic and full 10 gems to be ' competitive ' and it feel like it will just be a goal that i never can reach. Not really a mmo pay 2 fast but a full gacha game pay 2 win... very sad since this game is amazing... but as a f2p player the game is just bad

JamesNog: What are the prices for t4 lv8s gems in korea rn ?

dimitri2235: I don't know about Korean players, you guys have it good there while we in the west are struggling to push any of the characters.

The issue that west is facing is the progression of characters cost waaaay too much and there is Ark Grid coming soon which is another year or doing a progression.

Another issue is that Tier 3 is a dead content, they should completely wipe it out or make other stuff soloable and i'm talking about lower tier of dungeons. Also the lack of gold and everything is even worse, things are too expensive and only pass can help you get out of there.

The shop is also ridicilous, we're sitting at 12k gold for blue crystals, it's insanely expensive, I understand why people buy gold instead of buying it ingame, things are too expensive, Azena purposely put to 550 so people have to spend 20€ instead of 10€. We are getting drained by AGS for their shameless prices how they put things out.

Another thing worth mentioning is the combat power, that needs to be removed off the game or atleast hidden from other players, it is unaccurate and very big thing to use for gatekeep. High rosters people are example of that, they have full books, 6 same characters which use lv 10 gems and they expect us to have the same as them when books are overly expensive and gems are ridicilous after they removed it off the chaoses and everything.

Fix is simple, fix some stuff in shop, make relic books drop more and I don't mean make this be 20% and adre, grudge, raid captain be at 2%, everything needs to be the same chance. Gems should also be obtainable simply by doing dailies, stop adding progression to the game if you're not planning to nerf HEAVILY such as karma, transedence, I mean transedence should be by defualt be at level 7, nobody does Thaemine no more and it's kind of boring to do it solo aswell, elixir should also be fixed, remove useless rolls, add something like completed Elixir for certain amount of gold rather than rolling 200 of them not able to get 5/5 which in some cases a 5/4. Game is too expensive, big gatekeep due to people not able to progress their characters due to inflation of the gold and prices of gems and books which affects other aspects of the market materials. IF THIS GAME DOES NOT FIX THIS, IT'S GAME OVER.

QUANTPAPA: its crazzy that mobile Lost ark have more QOL. the have AI generating Dye skins. AI merchants that help you in raids. and let you start raids without 8 man. better graphics some how XD and guides in the raid self explaining mechs with videos and AI explaining you what you do wrong. lel where is that in PC XD

Course6Beaver: I don't think there's a whole lot of actual players flooding into play Lost Ark at least on global. They should focus more on current player retention.

excia7geness: i think its time Lost ark plan its ramp down, while announcing Lost Ark 2 this winter LOAON or next year or else what we'll get is another destiny 2 angry and dissatisfied players and ever declining player base while the development team having no backup plan as they have committed to releasing more expansions.

NirajPatel-c1t: The director needs to be fired, period. His hubris and stubbornness honestly continues to push the game into ruin.

petetam567: Yeah i have already cut my roster in half to play while waiting for Aion 2. Trying to put a new alt is the pain in the arse with gold/mat cost, elixir, trans.

Arkgrid is just another way to milk addicted players while it last. Game is too late too change , at the very least all latest raids should be able to solo with a harder difficulty option. New players are hard stuck on Karma when people are fighting Kazeros is just ridiculous

Tokiomy: Trans end elixirs should not exist in t4,they are relics of a past time.they should be removed compleatly and nobody will even care

maxcaper: Realistically Season 3 isn't Season 3, it is still Season 2.... they only used that naming so they can justify putting in more greed after greed and sell it as new, "exciting" progression.

This game is the worst MMO to start as a new player and it's no one's surprise that the game is dying in the global regions while it's declining in Korea.

walpurgisnight7: Gold River's legacy was turned into worthless garbage by a dunce. I love Lost Ark, but I think the game should have been given a final act following Elgacia.

Netsurai: Leave this greedy Lost Ark shopkeeper and look forward to 14 Nov: 'Where Winds Meet'. Enough said.
