This entire game is built on the sunk cost fallacy.
You got suckered into paying to avoid perpetual grind and inferior everything. Now you're a paypig who has lowered his standards. The game now has you, wallet and soul.

AND Albion is PvP centric, which means "player driven content" AKA they suckered you into providing the entertainment instead of the devs doing it.

All that's missing from Albion are "daily endurance" meters with cash shop links.

I know the MMO market is complete trash right now but don't lower yourself to this.

Go get a 3ds emulator. Play Bravely Default or something.
