Nobody really mentioned mercs in previous posts. Once you see people preferring to have a merc healer over trying to group anywhere... "you're in you're own world now"

Same reason why a lot of P99ers don't want to play on servers where boxing is the norm.
I got that but what is wrong with a human healer bringing their own merc dps, merc tank with a few target selection commands or auxiliary healers? Options should have been good. Mercs where supposed to breeze people up to 85.

I think, yes think. It is not the games themselves, mostly its people can't be assed to socialize for hours at a time.

If I was a billionaire I would definitely pay people to play with me though. And I wouldn't group with any F2P mentally ill elf IRL larpers.

Actually the more I think about it it Mercs are a 1st step towards the inevitable, interaction with AI slaves. Familiars already crack jokes and try to fill out the missing social depth.
