Such a good game ruined by silly things like their cash shop and regrade system.

The regrade system itself wasn't inherently bad (aside from item destruction). The fact that it's intimately tied to the cash shop made it bad.

The absurd RNG/gambling tied into the systems, unmitigated cheating, AND the cash shop killed it.

Pher0cious

Zombie game.

Ironically, this game has been long forgotten by the general gaming community.

Amazingly the core playerbase plays it no matter what. 

I am just waiting to see some epic failure happening due to Gamigos incompetence 

What core playerbase? You mean the people who haven't figured out what the people on the first, second, and third round of servers did?

Secondly, any failings of Archeage belong to Trion and XL Games. There's nothing Gamigo has to do but keep whale hunting until they're all extinct.

shh you can't tell him that, for him trion never did anything wrong, and like all games who heavily depends on cash shops the "core" players are the ones who already so invested then they don't want to quit, and the combat was pretty nice before all the dealings trion made

Game is too far gone to save, no matter what they add or do to it at this point. Live Archeage is in Zombie mode.

Most the population either quit completely or went to a private server which offer a better gameplay experience then the live ones. Although the P2W crap is still there.

The only thing left on live are whales and some real die hards who are too heavily invested to quit.

This is a prime example of potentially one of the best mmos made which was completely destroyed by a F2P conversion and aggressive P2W cashshop. Only game I know that was actually miles better in alpha then release, at least NA alpha wise.

I'm with you, but I think I have some kind of battered wife/PTSD thing with Archeage.

If Gamigo ever did a subscription server and removed the P2W cash shop stuff and adjusted what they currently have to fit... I think my dumb ass would run back for more abuse.

Archeage has suxh an amazing environment, feeling, ... I really miss it. I think it's time of the year to login, walk around, think about some good memories and deinstall it afterwards xD

Those awesome days when they had 100+ servers and everyone just left their character logged in 24/7 to earn labor points...or was it another another pay to win game where they sold labor point potions? Dont remember, dont care....it had it's chance...

InebriatedSkunk

Is there any community servers with a good playerbase that fixes the issues? I really want to like this game, but the main servers are ran by rabid monkeys

I let you know in this new update, the instance daily quest reward is free labor, all regrade scroll is in honor shop, pets is in arena shop. You don't have to pay in the cash shop if you don't like it.
