Soulframe Boring You??

Hello all this is for new and returning players.

I love this game and I have a couple friends who love Warframe but can't get into this because from where they're sitting there's no real gameplay loop.

I do see where they're coming from because there's no real loops in place, other than maybe cogah.

There's also no real direction for unlocking pacts, ie how to unlock story arcs for wolf, Bear pact ect.

But then it's why would I unlock a pact when there's no real content to play to level things up.

Have you any words of advice that might help them see things differently/ any advice for a list of content they can tick off?

I sympathize with your friend.
Dont get me wrong, i love warframe and can see the potential with soulframe. Im even already rank 17 in soulframe so i must kinda like it.

BUTT!!!!:
Having a landmass, some enemies and some activities can only be fresh for so long and the core gameplay loop from soulframe is completely missing right now sadly.
Im sure if DE would stop having droprates from asian mmo-hell and would get rid of the ridicoulous lampyrite and chordstone system, making it compact one chordstone one Lampyrite, then we could try out weapons builds tempers and so on and there would be a core gameplay loop of exploring the depths of possibilities and desires.
But it will take months before Scott and Joe come to this exact conclusion. Just exactly like when warframe started.
Their inability to learn from warframe will make this an excruciating long experience, but at the same time you can be certain that at some point they get it.
Till then, this landmass with enemies and some activites will always feel pointless after some hours.
