Another thing i want to say is that i read a lot of post of ppl complaining about IMC not listening to fans and doing nothing for the game… i found that to be the most ridiculous and so far from the truth thing that mad players say about game devs.
Since the first beta i heard about, i saw they added many control schemes (Mouse click mode, WASD movement, etc.) which imo is AMAZING, made changes to clases so you can choose and pick whichever you want that before you coudnt (this changes balance a lot, which makes them re-think all their plans), mounting, a lot of balance improvements, a ■■■■ ton of content like Earth Tower, pvp (yeah is not polished, but at least WE HAVE IT), and a lot of other really cool changes. Just because the devs havent addressed what YOU want (or what you want now) yet doesnt mean they dont care or that they are not working on it.
For example, been able to move with WASD and aim with mouse was for me almost game breaking. It was one of those features that for me are super important and… they added it, now you have 3-4 control schemes to choose from… thats 2-3 times more options than basically any other mmo have.
As a game developer myself, i can tell you that this things take time, a LOT of time, much more that what we are used to (because ppl is used to massive companies like Blizzard), they dont have 300 employees working on this.
Im not trying to be a fanboy, just telling you that ITS OBVIOUS that they are actively working on improving the game (you can see that kTOS receives a patch like every f***ing week, even if you are not getting what you want or they make some mistakes). If you really like the game as many of you state, you need to be patience and stop comparing it to games that have 10 years of development and updates, because theres NO game that have 10 years of content, quality of life features, etc. at BETA!!!
Thats all i have to say, i know it wont make any difference for you, but i hope other readers less bias get a new perspective from this.
Have fun!
Edit: sry for my English, hope you can get the idea.
