Discussion The Brutal Truth About Lineage 2 That Will Make You Ragequit

[ArezG]

I’m done with Lineage 2.

Not because I “grew up”, not because I “don’t have time for games” anymore, but because this game has slowly turned into everything it was supposed to be against.

 

Let’s be honest: most people are not playing Lineage 2 anymore.

They are running 5–10 boxes, macros and scripts, setting up their characters and going to watch Netflix.

The core loop isn’t PvP, clan wars or raids – it’s AFK grinding and praying your gear upgrades don’t fail.

 

The game used to be about outplaying your enemy with positioning, timing and coordination.

Now it’s about:

 

Who has more boxes logged in.

 

Who is willing to swipe the credit card harder.

 

Who abuses the most broken script, cheat or exploit before it gets “patched”.

 

And let’s talk about pay‑to‑win.

You can pretend it’s “supporting the server” all you want, but when someone can buy power that takes others months (or is literally impossible) to reach, that’s not support, that’s buying victories.

When top players are just walking credit cards with epics, donations and event gear, you don’t have competition, you have a spending contest.

 

The community? It’s just as bad.

Most “friends” are temporary party members until they find a better CP, clan or donation package.

Drama, backstabbing, ninja looting, clan leaders selling clan resources, spies in Discord – it’s more like a cheap political simulator than an MMO.

People talk about “honor” and “fair play”, then log their 10th box, run radar and target through walls.

 

And private servers…

So many promises: “long‑term project”, “no corruption”, “no over‑enchant items”, “balanced gameplay”.

Then after a few weeks you see:

 

Admin friends with full gear “testing”.

 

Hidden donations or “special offers” for “supporters”.

 

GMs closing their eyes to obvious abuse because it’s their buddies or biggest donors.

Every wipe and every “fresh start” is just another cycle of the same lie, and we all pretend “this time will be different”.

 

The saddest part?

Most of us know all this and still keep coming back because Lineage 2 has an insane core – the world, the classes, the adrenaline of real PvP, the politics, the sieges.

But that core is buried under layers of greed, abuse, bots, scripts, egos and fake promises.

 

So here is the brutal truth:

Lineage 2 is not a hardcore competitive MMORPG anymore.

It’s a casino disguised as nostalgia, kept alive by whales, box armies and people too addicted or too hopeful to finally let go.

 

If you’re still playing, ask yourself honestly:

Are you having fun, or are you just grinding, coping and praying that “next server” will finally be the one that isn’t corrupt, pay‑to‑win or dead in three months?

 

For me, I’m out.

Flame me, defend the game, call me salty – I don’t care.

But deep down, most of you know I’m not lying.
