Eden Eternal's Reawakening Update Released, Stirs Up Controversy
Aeria Games recently released a new update for their MMORPG Eden Eternal. The update titled "The Reawakening" saw the revamping of several areas including an updated starting zone experience, a revamped UI system, the addition of double jumping, lighting improvements and additional visual enhancements. Character models should now have more visual depth, along with smoother and more detailed animations. Three additional classes were also added to the starting roster for players to choose from when creating a new character.
Overall the extensive list of adjustments in this patch represents a fairly substantial improvement in the quality of life experience for players in Eden Eternal. However, one small change in the patch notes has players quite upset. Aeria Games has placed a number limit on the amount of dungeons a player is allowed to run per day in game in an apparent effort to restrict gold farming. With a maximum of 10 normal runs and 2 trial runs. Many Eden Eternal gamers say they feel this new cap puts added pressure on them to purchase items with the cash shop currency while others feel the system was being abused and was causing market inflation. Still others wonder how this change will affect those who wish to level primarily through dungeons.
I have't personally played Eden Eternal in over a year, but I do recall dungeon running being an integral part of the MMORPG's experience. Passionate players are always quick to voice their opinionated feelings on the official forums so I am curious, do you also find this change overly restrictive?

Don't forget that with the EE DGN system there are limits but when you hit level 50 there are also trials to do. if you add the limited, 0/2, unlimited, 0/10, and the trials ,0/3, together you end u with a total of 15 DGN runs! not to mention the extra drops from trial that can be sold and will earn you money. Plus theres more than one DGN in the entire game, if you run out of runs on one, just go to another. You run out of Vortek Unlim and Lim runs? go to Soulmor Falls and you get 12 more runs. (Both DGN's are in Decay Forest which is a 57+ zone)
Farming and Crafting are a little difficult ill give you that (especially if you don't have safety stones) but there are special gardening gloves and pickaxes as well as divining crystals that can be bought for 250-500G. Basic and common crafting mats can be bought for 1-5EP in the loyalty mall and come in quantities of 1-10. You can always get help from your friends as well so don't ragequit. You can also get lv30 Legacy armor boxes that help you boost your HP points and there are stones and gems to be used that can boost attributes and stats
Buying and spending AP is completely safe and I have done so multiple times and spent £25-£30 and earnt a lot of AP as well as a lot of Gold and I have bought primes and such from the website and sold them on the game for 2.5-100k varying from item ranks and costumes. The item mall does not sell any OP items that majorly alter stats so spenders aren't any better than the norm players unless they build them to be better.
Some of the new classes have completely annoyed characters and made some even quit as they are either too OP or they are pretty much an end game class like messiah and Luminary. Most players agree that these classes have pretty much ruined the game but 50% of the people who feel the need to criticize the class actually use it themselves.
If you feel the need to commentate on anything I have said please reply and we can carry on the discussion.
This game is really great, i played it for a long time and had a blast of fun. But Aeria keeps making it pay-to-win more and more.
I remember when i started the game was really great, then they started adding a lot of cash items, which i didn't really mind, the game was still somewhat balanced and you could buy those items from other players with in-game money if you farmed enough for it.
But then they made it so enemies that are few levels below you can't drop decent amount of gold anymore, making farming very very hard. Which made me quit the game because i instantly saw where Aeria is going, they wanted to make it almost impossible to farm gold so people would spend more money on the game.
And now they did this? They actually restricted how many times you can go in dungeons to prevent people from farming? I can't say I'm surprised, but damn that's really low. Aeria Games make tons of money on their games, and they're still so damn greedy and do things like this.
Unless you want to spend a LOT (read: tons) of money on this game to be able to get good gear don't even bother playing it. Aeria is constantly looking for ways to make people spend more money on the game, constantly restricting the fun for free players.
