    Funny, but frighteningly familiar and not in a good way. *shudder*

    All that planning for a raid when we all know you just need more dots.

    Hehe. Is it Pantheon related, if we comment "please please please don't make it so Pantheon requires super-intense uber-guilds in order to do any raids"? ;^)

    I love Viva La Dirt League!

    Honestly wasn't expecting or couldn't remember them publishing this take, but it's certainly what I've seen in other games!

    Hopefully the community raiding aspect wouldn't be that hardcore, or at least the guild I'm possibly in won't be!

    Thanks for posting that Nekentros! Funny as hell.

    I've played plenty of games that later started to feel like a job, as I'm sure you all have too. It did make me think of WoW Garrisons. I ended up spending so much time doing "Garrison chores" that I had little time left to "have fun". After about 4 months I canceled my subscription.

    Being a game dev has to be frustrating and challenging at times. They are trying to find that balance between the game being fun and giving us enough to do so that we are entertained and jonesing to log in the next day. That is no easy ask.
