The loading times
Was doing an eq monthly run today..and the fact that it’s just one massive path with links that need to load, movement that needs to load, fight that needs to load, selector that need to load…made me realise the single most thing I now really despise about the game…yup..the loading.
Yes even more than the bugs, the ai…I just hate having my time wasted sat around….waiting..at least when the ai kills you, you fight in them..or when the bugs are there, you’re fighting.
I swear I spent almost half my time today just watching the little circle spin while it loads up the next screen..so in a 5 hour run, I probably spent 2.5 hours waiting….
Most fights took between 30s and 90s. So sometimes, I’d finish a fight and spend longer loading up the next few screens for the next fight, than actually fighting.
I get that sometimes in game there are time sinks…but up till now I thought that was just making fights harder, longer, more of a grind..but now it seems making loading screens is part of that equation lol.
Is there anything that can be done to reduce load times?
