I agree with Daliah. BNS is still fun. I sometimes spend some money sometimes I don't. I can have a break and then start up again, but need to buy some stuff as I don't have the time to grind. You know the game "Last Chaos"? Nice game, and a true and utterly p2w game. This game does not make any fun without having paid a lot of money, while in BNS you can still grind to the top. It is possible. You can make a lot of gold and then pay for raids. I have done that a lot. There are a lot of gamers top notch who did not spend much money in BNS. There are also some real whales (play to win). Sometime when I am lazy (and yeah what a lazy ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ I am) I just buy stuff, to save the time. What makes this game really cool: The community is not that bad! I have met a lot of nice people there. Next: The mech is very cool, the pvp is still cool, you can do a lot with skills! And belive me, I am not very skilled and die very often in PVP, but I am there to have fun and it is fun to be able to decide between pvp and pve which both works very well in the game. Yeah, the programming is still poor, but I have never seen a single game that was perfect. Some say: Oh, the population of the servers go down. Yeah they do, but the BNS com is very stable and I have seen a lot of people who came back (including me after 1,5 years of break). I have to admit, the first 2 years of the game were absolutely fantastic and some of the great fun carried over to these days. I will play this game for the next years. I love it, thats it. I use the possibility to save time. Cheers.
