The world doesn't revolve around you. Try single player games.

In my opinion, Live is too advanced/commercialized/ezmode but P99 is too archaic and it's permanent. It's nice to have a world which youc can always count on because it always stays the same and never evolves into something you hate but is P99 Velious that world?
Has been for a decade.

At least on live you can be just like everybody else, with enough time and effort, so even if you arrive late to the party you're not stuck in inferior mode like you are on P99 and you're not forced to pick a certain race or side because of balance issues (whether they are real or perceived).

Do you enjoy playing a in a permanently broken world? I guess if you are at the top of the pyramid because you arrived first and took advantage of bad game design which was later fixed (but not retroactively) then the answer is YES.
YES, Good

It's lovely to see people in newbies areas but I don't think they realise that they are just there to serve the people who arrived first.
Green opening week, watching veterans and noobs getting their faces eaten by the Griffin was a joy. 10/10 best gaming ever.

Edit Note: The best designed games of today are not getting my money. How come a broken bad game gets my time.
