If you were around before autorun, you know that rageclicking through a map takes only slightly longer at the PC. Everybody physically has enough time to burn through their stamina if they want to...if you are away from your computer for 12 straight hours, that's only 240 stamina generated. Since stamina refills at a constant rate of one stamina every three minutes, totally independent of a player's level, new people may not be able to totally catch up to the veterans...but they can easily reach a point where the only real advantage the vets will have is in the amount of stamina restored when leveling up. After that point, who cares how long you can stop playing before you stop generating stamina via elapsed time?
This is a worse entitlement mentality than that Edelweiss petition whining...they at least didn't have a remedy for their situation built into the game (it's called 'playing the game'). If you want as big a voice as those who were here from the beginning, put in the work to get bigger.
I can agree with the autorun part, since that means that a person can leave and do other more important. However, some players don't have teams that can go through a map without the help of them pressing the Burst button at the right time. Leaving a mediocre team(teams with units below the boss' level) can be wasteful. Not to mention RNG.
I don't think anyone is saying that people shouldn't try to get better; getting better and putting in hard work is entire point of the game. It's just that this can't be considered a popularity contest if one guy behind a screen suddenly has eight times the say as some other guy behind a screen.
And in this case, our "entitlement" is justified. That case was when people wanted a unit who's event had passed. They felt entitled to have a solution to an inconvenience that didn't affect core gameplay. However, in part, they were entitled to believe that people deserved the event agian, but many more felt entitled to the opinion that they did not deserve the event. We feel "entitled" to having as much say in this game's future as much as anyone else. It has less to do about the units, It's the fact that we are considered less important than people no different to us. Why is it that you are "entitled" to decide who is worthy to hold a larger saying than others and yet no else can? And at what point do consider people suddenly worthy of being considered twice, 3 times, even 4 times, the man of someone who just joined? 10 days? 20? 50? I'm registered in these forums, Saertis is registered in forums, you are not. And yet, we listen to what you say, and we disagree. We could say "we've been here longer, you are not entitled to an opinion" yet we don't, since that's not true. There honestly wouldn't be a problem if you didn't insult us with the "entitlement" tag. You can't be entitled to to the opinion that this is fair, if we're not entitled to the opinion that it isn't. We are all entitled to discuss till the sun goes down and comes right back up. I am also entitled to tell you, just another person behind a computer, that I feel like the idea that you are entitled to use "entitlement" as a basic insult to a person's right of expression is very hypocritical.
