  The problem with PvP MMO’s is that PvP players are the last group of people you’d want your community to consist of.

  Sun tzu once said to mass report your enemies to win the battle before it begins

  &quot;The majority of PVP battles are now guilds preemptively mass-reporting enemy generals to weaken the other side through automatic bannings, and then just dragging the window while standing on the areas to never lose points.&quot;<br><br>and yet a minimap would break the immersion. Incredible.

  Ah, yes, it is just like Sun-Tzu said: &quot;Don&apos;t fight the enemy where they are strong. Mass report the scrubs and then climb over the terrain. This is the true measure of a leader.&quot;

  We&apos;ve gotten to strange times when watching documentaries about games can be more fun than actually playing them 😅

  A friend of mine and me were so surprised about the different spawn points, that we started accusing each other of being unable to read a map, because we never thought that anyone could make such a weird system.

  Them banning the minimap was Huge. You have to realize the core progression loop in the game at that time for thousands of players for 8h + a day in order to keep up everyone&apos;s guild and progress etc was &quot;Look for ore, its hard to spot and you have to follow a map or an internet video&quot; &quot;Look for herb&quot; &quot;Look for x item to farm&quot; &quot;Look for x&quot; and they were all so unoptimized, it was SO satisfying when they added it.

  the ingame economy crashing bc the most powerful faction had an incredible advantage is hilarious because that&apos;s Amazon&apos;s ideal world and it instantly fails in practice

  This game feels like the soulless manifestation of the mega-corporation that made it

  I must mention, the most hilarious part for me in this timeline is the point where a game made by Amazon had a bug where companies can&apos;t pay taxes.

  And now they&apos;re no longer going to get updates because the entire studio is gone.
