Looks like you kinda missed my point - either that or we need to agree to disagreeOriginally Posted by Archeus
I'll try a different tact though
I have to keep my LE in, I have no desire to get ganked by capped runners at a whim (I'm far from capped) nor do I feel compelled to level up to the exclusion of all else just to prevent said ganking (I choose how I want to play, as soon as I am forced I'm not having fun anymore) - while I would engage in PvP on a fair basis (rank restricted PvP for example) the game does not cater to this so I have to keep my LE in
I refuse to be the source of a high/capped players twisted sence of achievement and amusement (for all of the 10 secs it takes them to kill me) especially when I am then penalised for it (item decay, dropped items I might not get back, re pokes etc - nothing but negatives for me here)
Which prevents me (and my friends) from forming a clan, pooling equipment, having a meeting place, sence of unity, identity in politics etc. I was NEXT btw so my character/faction goals are hardly confrontational in nature
However give me a fair fight (one where my opponent would be less eager to pull the trigger since he could easily lose and asks himself what he has to gain) not only would I embrace this but it suddenly creates a tense environment where you really dont know if that 'enemy' will fight, run or just ignore you
Theres more to this game than PvP (political 'conflicts' goes wayyy beyond PvP, especially where the 'corp factions' of the city are concerned)
Which is basically why I quit the game - you can either believe that or not, but it doesnt change anything
Then you can look at the polarised community and the low player counts and ask yourself 'why'. Everyones got their own opinion, I just call it as I see it
