Hi,
I play this game since it was launched. And I'm surprised how the story of this game is unstable and fragile. I loved the days of gate arcade. You could see how many people were playing at each gate. The gate of the Jelly King was the most populous, had over 800~1500 people playing, at that time you really need a guild, because you need to take ride to the terminal, the big guilds are no longer the same. People do not go over the gates of the arcade anymore. You can now see the population of the gates, no more than 20 playing in each. Now you just need 2 type of equipment, for the Jelly King "mission" and Vanaduke "mission", in the past you could see the kind of monster the next gate and switching equipment, now none of this makes sense. Once you play the gates to buy and sell recipes in the terminal, now they sell in the "hall of heroes". The other gates of the arcade are still under "construction". I'm really confused. Most equipment can be purchased with ce, this is killing the game. You want to make money? Just sell "Costumes" and Appearance stuff with money. Remove the missions and build the another gates. People spent money to buy appearance stuff and uv weapons. Now you dont need more poison, freeze, and another stuffs, because all dudes just want to vanaduke and jelly "mission", get boring fast and stop to play. Most of my friends stop to play, over 70+.
The Hall of Heroes does not sell Brinks Recipes (ex. Divine Avenger)
People more liekly choose the "missions" because it's a save of their mist to do more of the run. Example would be that if you were to do Vanaduke in the Clockworks it would cost 90CE, while going to the mission would only take 50.
