I am just gonna' throw out points here - I kinda' want to just bash on Hassat (some of your reasons are pretty sus) all day but I think that might just be due to a misunderstanding since it seems like this thread has arguments going in parallel rather than actually being directed at each other.
In the EA, the current system struggles when mobs/players don't have resources and the AI is dumb as all hell (it runs through fucking terrain effects with zero fucks). Thus, making CC seemingly lead to an instant victory which is dubbed by Quiox and Hassat as 'instant' win.
The problem with that argument, which both Quiox and Hassat miss, is that in order to point out that the system is broken you are reliant on the AI and the players not having enough resources and one side being dumb as bricks.
There's also another problem with that argument which is that the detractors have yet to prove that actually CCing something leads to an instant victory. Under which conditions is this actually true and which conditions does this become untrue?
Then lastly an argument from left field is that the system is boring because it's predetermined or some shit or that the current system is a 'Chess' or 'spreadsheet' like system. This argument is 100% mind boggling. Who the fuuuuuuuck comes up with that line of reasoning?
How the fuck is the sub-system 'Chess/spreadsheet' like? All it says is the following "so long as you have armor, most status effects won't work against you". Where the fuck is the 'Chess' in this? Please, someone educate my ignorant ass self as to where the Chess is, bruv.
Plz. Halp. I am confused.
