State of the Game from an Elders Perspective
This isn't a rant.
I have been playing MCOC 4 almost 5 years now.
I am an elder.
I have an 8+ million account.
I have 34.2k+ prestige.
Im in a tier 1 alliance.
I have done pretty much all endgame content.
But the game just feels not fun anymore. Don't get me wrong, I don't plan on quitting. But the game just feels almost boring. And, dare I say it, too easy.
When the carinas challenges came out, I thought "Oh, this will be fun because it will be hard. Im going to have to do this as fast as I can as soon as the objective drops so that I can keep up with everyone else." But, you could go and do the entire path fight for ordeal and abyss, then later Epoch Gauntlet. I would park at the boss at 1%, then when the objective was unlocked, then I finished the boss. It wasn't fun.
Then 9.4 dropped. "Oh," I thought, "This will be fun because this will be difficult and long." 3 hours later of it being out, I explored the entire thing and was Elder.
We need a really difficult endgame content to drop. It needs to be aimed at Elders. It needs to be time consuming. Because the challenge makes it fun. Sure, it'll be extremely annoying and I might hate it during it, but it really is fun. WoF was arguably the "hardest" piece of content dropped so far (in my own opinion of course), but it was fun. I of course spent more revives then I should, but the extremely limited option of champions for difficult fights made it a challenge. The challenge made it fun.
TLDR: In the end, the game feels too easy. Give us a challenge.
