Discussion Fun Vs Money

[Porthos]

Is it me or people forgot that Lineage 2 is a game and is suposed to be measured by the enjoyment and quality of the gameplay?

 

Servers a few years back strived to be original and unique, now everyone is trying to make the new gold, pride or x20 Copy Paste server. I know its an old game and all but the retail servers are booming even now, because L2 has a classic quality to it.

 

I am writting this because, what i read in all discussions about servers by the players is that they compare servers by the ammount of money the owners have spend/made from it and not if they enjoyed their time playing there.

 

Another example is i see people complaining about bugs and that the owners dont care on some servers but they play on it because it has 5000+ (mostly fake) players.

 

These are my thoughts lately, i  hope someday all players will play lineage 2 because they want to have fun and appriciate the work people have put on a server, instead of riding the hype trains.

Apparently people would rather throw away their money on some throw away server that dies within a month. And then complains when that same damn server owners opens up another "donations plox server", this vicious cycle will continue until people say enough is a fucking nuff.  There are still those of us who believe that Lineage 2 is a good game. And those of us that still want to make a server for people to enjoy and not be all about the money. Right now I can name only one new one (One that I am starting) and an old one, RaidFight. As I stated in my preview, I could not care less about donations, sadly though it seems people would rather play on a server that is going to last a month, wipe and close it's doors once the money runs dry only to open again under another name to start anew. You know what people say, you can lead a horse to water, but you can't force it to drink. Just my two cents.
