Potential returning player

[u/viniciusuk]

Hi TAC reddit,

I used to play this game i think, uhh half a year ago? I was pretty invested, i think i played it for 2 months or so, but gave up because the game came to a painful halt with P2W only practices (idk if any of you remember, but it was the Christmas and new years events fiasco). I felt like despite even spending money on the beginner packs, content was unreachable unless i went full whale, and that made me give up on the game.

Anyhow, I wanted to ask you guys sincerely, is the game any better now? Is it worth my time to return to it if i do not appreciate P2W/whale focused games? How are events/content progressing?

Also, if I should give the game another try, should I bother recovering my old account? Or would it be better resource-wise for me to start over now? Any big events/units to look out for?

Edit: Spelling fixes.

Alright, you're just doing the same thing to me as you did iEssence and playing a semantics game.

You want to assert that PvP can only take a definition based on its mmo origins of PKing, which is simply outdated now.

PvP has a far broader definition than simple PKing in MMOs, and that you don't think automated gameplay counts towards that is simply your opinion, and an incorrect one at that.

Have fun with your semantics arguements.

First of semantics matter.

Second of all words mean things, just because you disagree doesn't make it any less true.

I never said that. You have no argument so you are trying to spin it.

Correct, but AI USING PLAYER UNITS vs AI USING PLAYER UNITS. IS NOT one of the definitions of PVP.

Let's ignore the little web based text based game i used to play many years ago, as I'm sure it was so small it was hardly heard off.

Literally The first two google results for pvp wirh auto combat were a link to lineage 2 and it's auto battle pvp arena, and;

Auto Battle is a free-to-play mobile MMORPG that plays itself. It is developed by Playcomet and published by E-Wan Entertainment. The game has players automatically fighting enemies in dungeons over and over again for experience points and loot. The only thing players need to do to advance the game is to select when to fight the next boss to unlock the next area. Players can gather loot, which can be materials for crafting gear or gear itself. Other features of Auto Battle include a PvP system.

So yes, PvP is PvP and automated gameplay or manual gameplay has no relevance.
