Droid Engineer Archive
Thread: I am sick of it!
I played UO and EQ from very near to launch. It helps to have a frame of reference. It helps me hang on to DE, that and the steady but small sales I make with my vendor.
I keep thinking that if/when the game is fixed, assuming it is fixed before I am too old to even operate a keyboard, the credits I am slowly putting away will help me buy or make something really nice. Hopefully it will be nice enough that all the annoying multiple tells and the near constant and repetitive explanations of droid function (that really ought to have been in the help section of the game) will be if not completely worth the trouble, perhaps more worth the trouble.

With the exception of UO, I have never been so disappointed with a game. I am sorry. I love the potential of this game--but I don't see where it is going. They are not going to re-develop droid engineering from the ground up? Do you not see that our profession is a carbon copy of the creature handler profession? I am taming deeds for droids I put together as if they are some form of animal. Oh wait, how did all of that junk I piled into my crafting tool turn into a piece of paper called a deed?
Where is the immersion? Just where is it?
How hard is it to change some text so that perhaps we don't see things like "tame" in our profession? How hard is it to let us have more than one droid out at a time? Please don't tell me that it turns the balance wheels against the world because -- newsflash -- our droids are pretty much worthless!
Why am I angry? Well it is because I wanted this game for so long. I wanted to craft droids. I wanted to enjoy the immersion that the Star Wars universe offered. At every turn I get disappointed.
I tried the PVP Battlefields--no one was there.
I tried missions--and after a time I just don't see me killing womp rats for fun and profit.
I have now gone Overt and I just get killed when I am AFK.
I don't see the need to join hunting parties as well--there is nothing there for me. I am not interested in upping my combat/pistol experience. What is a droid engineer to do on trips to kill yet more animals?
Guys--I am sorry. Today with the R2 droid that doesn't look like R2 it was the last straw. How can anyone who is in charge not at least give us the decorations that is Star Wars? Hell I worked a long time to get to be able to make protocol droids. Hah!! Can't do that -- there is no resources available for that.
I am just tired of it all.
Defend this game all you want--but in all of the game releases that I mentioned there was enough "depth" to keep me there while things got worked out.
Just what is there that is keeping you fine droid engineers there? Ah I know.. the next creature handling feature that somehow falls into droid engineering space. How nice.
