Das Spiel hatte seinen (nicht allzu hohen) Peak schon.
Es macht zwar Spaß ab und an mal wieder rein zuschauen, aber wirklich lange hookt es nicht.

Erstmal die Dinge die mir gefallen:

+ Grafik
+ Klassendesign

und jetzt leider die zunehmend nervigen/negativen Punkte:

- Klassen sind an Geschlechter gebunden
- Rote Punkte, überall und ständig: Es wird mit roten Punkten an Icons markiert wenn etwas neues hinzugefügt worden ist. Ein einziges neues Item im Inventar? Roter punkt. Ein Achievement? Hey roter Punkt, klick mich an! Du hast deinen Charakter gerade erstellt und es gibt Events? Roter punkt, der nicht weggeht, weil dein Level zu niedrig ist um den Event Tab zu öffnen. Man muss ständig irgendwo rein klicken, damit es übersichtlich bleibt, was einen echt in den Wahnsinn treiben kann.
- Neuer Charakter? Level 10! Man startet mit Level 10 in Prideholme.. und braucht ca. 25.000 XP für ein Level up. Ein Gegner gibt 2!!!! XP. also wenn man in seinem Tempo erkunden und grinden möchte, darfst du für ein Level up entspannt 12.500 Gegner platt machen. Das Spiel zwingt einen dem Storypfad zu folgen um weiter zu kommen. Dazu kommt, dass viele Quests erst mit einem bestimmten Level, oder nach Abschluss einer anderen Quest verfügbar werden. Das heißt, du darfst dir auch nicht aussuchen in welcher Reihenfolge du welche Quest machst.
- Mangelnde Anpassbarkeit von Klassen. Ja, es gibt viele unterschiedliche Klassen, aber: Dein Tank wird immer ein Tank bleiben, dein Damage Dealer bleibt immer ein Damage Dealer und Supporter zu spielen ohne ne Gruppe? Viel glück dabei. Ja man kann durch werte der Ausrüstung etwas abwandeln wie viel Schaden man macht und wie viel man einstecken kann.. Aber das Scaling der Fähigkeiten lässt sich nicht ändern. Wenn du alleine spielst und etwas vorankommen willst, dann kannst du nur DPS spielen, sonst dauert das in vielen Instanzen EWIG.
- Übersichtlichkeit: Furchtbar, absolut Gottlos. 1000 Menüs, die Map hat genau 2 Ansichten: Die gesamte Welt, oder der kleine Bereich in dem du gerade bist. So macht erkunden Spaß...
- Crafting: Wird erst später freigeschaltet und lohnt sich erst wirklich bei MAX Level. Das Grinden für Materialien dauert länger als einfach auf guten Drop zu hoffen.
- Unübersichtliche In Game Währung: Diamanten und Kristalle. Manche Items kosten Diamanten, andere Kristalle. Beides ist sozusagen eine Echtgeldwährung. Mit Kristallen kannst du Diamanten kaufen. Und Kristalle kann man für echtes Geld kaufen. Zu einem Wechselkurs der nicht 1:1 ist. Ein Skin für 800 Diamanten oder 2000 Kristalle, welcher ist Teurer? Antwort: Fick dich, weiß ich nicht, ist mir auch Egal, jetzt gib mir dein Geld.
- Powerpässe: Wenn du bis hierhin gelesen hast, Glückwunsch. Denn jetzt weißt du, dass du lästiges 12.500 Gegner killen oder Materialien grinden mit etwas (sehr viel) Geld überspringen kannst. Wie nett! Für schlappe 40-80€ kannst du auf MAX Level, in einem Geeignetem Level Gebiet mit passender Ausrüstung starten.
- Charakterlöschungen: Und wenn du nach 1 Jahr Pause dich dazu entschlossen hast jetzt trotz dieser Bewertung nochmal reinzuschauen und einen neuen Charakter zu erstellen; erstmal mein Beileid. Und zweitens; Hoffentlich hast du auch einen freien Charakterslot, denn ansonsten dauert das löschen 24 Stunden - genug Zeit um deine Entscheidung nochmal zu überdenken. Also ob du dir das wirklich antun möchtest.
Alternativ darfst du dir natürlich auch einfach weitere Slots für echtes Geld dazu kaufen, das kostet dich nur.. keine Ahnung, kostet leider Diamanten.
(-) Ich zähle das jetzt mal nur als einen halben negativpunkt, beziehungsweise als ein großes Fragezeichen.. oder alternativ ein "WHAT THE ♥♥♥♥!?". Es GAB mal eine deutsche Übersetzung. Gab. Sie war da.. Es war schon implementiert. Englisch ist zwar okay, aber ich frage mich echt wieso man bestehende Quality of Life Features einfach so einstampft.

Fazit: Lost Ark war mal ganz nett. Gut genug dass man wirklich ein paar Tage, vielleicht sogar Wochen spaß daran haben konnte.
Leider ist der Fokus extrem auf den Ingame Shop verschoben worden.
Außerdem gibt einem einem diese Open World (!!!) spiel absolut keine Anreize dazu selbst zu erkunden. Es ist linear, ein vorgeschriebener Pfad den man bitte einzuhalten hat.
Das ist bestimmt ganz nett für Spieler die keine MMOs spielen.. aber so jemand spielt halt auch kein MMO.
Es wurde so sehr versucht ein Spiel für JEDEN zu machen, dass es am Ende für niemanden ist.
Erfahrenen MMO Spielern wird jede Freiheit genommen und neue Spieler werden mit schlechten und unübersichtlichen GUIs abgeschreckt.

Ich bin enttäuscht und habe jetzt das erste mal so eine schlechte Bewertung abgegeben.

It is a really good game now. It still has problems, i.e. the trusted system is bugged and cannot be objected to.

Unfortunatly the game development leadership were too greedy and stingey at the start, ruining the potential and many players never gave it a second chance.

[h1]⚔️ [i]Lost Ark[/i] - Beautiful Combat, Brutal Monetization[/h1]

[b]What I Played:[/b] 232 hours across multiple classes, pushed through the main story, hit endgame, ran my share of Abyssal Dungeons and Legion Raids, and spent way too many evenings staring at honing screens watching my materials evaporate. I came in expecting a solid action RPG MMO and got exactly that — wrapped in one of the most aggressive monetization structures I've seen in a free-to-play game.

[b]The Good:[/b]
[list]
[*]The combat is genuinely top tier. Every class feels impactful and flashy, and pulling off a perfect raid mechanic with your team hitting abilities in sync is chef's kiss. This is where Lost Ark absolutely shines and it's the reason I kept logging in.
[*]The sheer amount of content is impressive. Between the continent exploration, collectibles, sailing, islands, and all the endgame raids, there's a ridiculous amount of stuff to do.
[*]Legion Raids are some of the best MMO raid content I've experienced. Valtan and Vykas had my group wiping for hours and it never stopped being fun to learn.
[/list]

[b]The Bad:[/b]
[list]
[*]The honing system is soul-crushing. Watching upgrade after upgrade fail at 10-15% increments while your gold and materials disappear feels deliberately designed to push you toward swiping. After 232 hours I still felt like I was behind.
[*]Time gating is everywhere. Daily chaos dungeons, daily guardian raids, weekly lockouts — miss a day and you're falling behind. It stops feeling like a game and starts feeling like a job you forgot to clock into.
[*]The cash shop is aggressively in your face. Between skins, battle passes, and the ability to essentially buy progression, the whole thing reeks of "spend money or suffer." It's technically free to play but the grind without paying is brutal by design.
[*]The early game story is a slog. Hours of generic fantasy questing before the game actually opens up.
[/list]

[b]Verdict:[/b] [b]Not Recommended[/b] - Look, Lost Ark has some of the best combat in any MMO and genuinely great raid content. But after 232 hours I can't in good conscience recommend something that respects your wallet less than it respects your time — and it barely respects your time either. If you can treat it as a purely casual experience and ignore the FOMO, there's fun here. But the game doesn't want you to be casual. It wants your credit card. Decent game buried under a cash grab framework.

some of the best top down action rpg combat in the industry - think hades but with 8 button mmo class combat complexity, not too much not too little

however this is attached to a reward and progression system that is as predatory as it gets - you are expected to play 18 raids a week just to keep up with others and not be a second class citizen when it comes to getting into raid lobbies

raid prog is about as good as it gets, progging brel hard is one of my gaming highlights this decade

but for each hour you spend progging, you're spending 50-100 hours playing the same raids on repeat, just to slowly accrue gold, so you can keep up with community expectations for gear quality and be able to prog the next raid on release

oh also they just fired the two primary forward-facing cs staff, all signs point towards EOS

meh story, excellent combat, maybe some good quests here and there. Most of the FTP endgame is less generous than being a slave in the mines, blacklung is probably a more enjoyable experience than running six characters just to have enough mats to maybe upgrade your main class' weapon once a month, and you'll be running mostly the same daily quests like a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ 9/5 except its more like a 12/7 with six characters. would be better if I just had to pay for the game and expansions but that reminds me to mention the monitisation. This is, in my lifetime of some 357+ (I'm a console guy) games played, the most demonic, greedy, souless, inhumane, disgusting, pathetic, lifeless piece of ♥♥♥♥ monitisation strategy I have every had the viceral displeasure of melting my eyeballs looking at. Genuinely killed the games popularity outside of South Korea. And don't even get me started on the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ bots and gold trading, holy ♥♥♥♥. There are more bots running gold farms than there are players in the game. Hell I bet your top botters are running more characters than entire minority servers like South America. But then again I know nothing about botting and neither do the developers, hence why every attempt at doing something about it acomplishes ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ nil. The only genuiley good thing this game has going for it is the combat (maybe the character customisation too) and thats it. If you're South Korean and hate yourself or own an Australian mining company then go balls deep by all means, but 99.99% of the gaming community should piss on this game. GG Pheons, possibly the worst creation in all gaming history, though I'm sure something came before it.

The first time I experienced a gaming community that felt even more toxic than League of Legends was in Lost Ark.

A lot of the players are extremely toxic, and the way they talk to others is often very disrespectful. Instead of helping new or returning players, many people immediately jump to telling you to “uninstall the game” or even say things like “go k*** yourself.” Sadly, this kind of behavior isn’t rare.

Besides the community issues, the game also has several major problems:

1. It stopped feeling like a game and started feeling more like a job. Smilegate seems to expect players to spend **8+ hours a day** grinding just to keep up.
2. Gatekeeping
3. Excessive RNG
4. Balance problems — even if you invested heavily in your character, players may still refuse you after a strong nerf, which can leave you wasting a huge amount of time just trying to find a party.

I have finally reached the point in this game where I've gotten all the mandatory collectables and now only have to look forward to the raid treadmill. I'm not sure if that makes me qualified to discuss endgame-endgame, but let's be real, unless you're a content creator or you're okay setting your hard-earned money on fire, you'll probably get bored of the game before then anyway. Note that my play hours are a little inflated because I leave the game running instead of waiting 10 minutes for it to start up again (that's not a joke, either).

Personally, I had a blast playing the game and still do (though I'm about personally 'finished' with the game because I only have one non-hardmode raid left to clear and the most recent hardmode is always essentially inaccessible to non-whales), but their business strategies and adaptations to keep the game relevant are frustrating at best and downright predatory at worst. I played this entirely f2p (besides a character slot I bought bc I didn't want to delete any of my previous toons in order to play another class, but ultimately I still only played 6 characters so it wasn't required for any strategies I did), and I was at a point of time in my life where I had a bunch of time to burn and needed to stay busy, so Lost Ark was actually a great fit. I think if you play it at your own pace and keep your blinders on to what's going on at the top-top-tier of raiding and whatever is going on in Korea, you'll really enjoy the game.

There's a ton to do, but if you stress over trying to rocket straight into the endgame, you'll quit. If you've played Old School Runescape, the progression is very similar. The problem is everything in this game tries to force you into doing the newest, shiniest raid before you're ready instead of letting you savor the journey because you don't need to spend money to enjoy older content. The situation LOA is in reminds me a lot of when Runescape tried to copy WoW's combat, and everyone quit. Instead of embracing long-form character progression which I really personally enjoyed, they throw you into the final area of the game where you're flooded with systems upon systems just so you can get into the newER raids faster. I have yet to have a single friend that used the powerpass to jump into raiding and stuck around, and unfortunately, every single update forces everyone further into this situation. One of their most recent updates completely removed Tier 3 progression and made that entire content completely meaningless, which is a shame because, as someone who started a couple months ago, it was really the best content the game had to offer (solo raids). This is an update they had to make because they've been bleeding players since launch years ago, and they unfortunately now have to cater to all the whales not wanting to wait an extra lockout to gear up their 16th alt, but this butchers the experience for any new players wanting to try it out because of how quickly it pushes you through.

All that being said, though, if you have the discipline not to let that pressure you into rushing into the latest raid, this game actually has really good and rewarding character progression and lots of extra horizontal content to do that contributes enough to your power to where you notice it but not so much that you can't do the content. It also boasts the best and most rewarding combat in any MMO, both in solo mode and group raids (but you have to be resilient because the first couple tries you'll probably mess up mechanics and die).

People constantly complain about the community but honestly everyone I've interacted with has been very friendly and helpful. Even when I wipe the raid like a noob, people are usually pretty patient and explain how I can fix it. Maybe if you argue with people and are rude then that might be different, but I usually just eat crow and do my best to learn from my mistakes (though there are a few times I've had to take off my gear and get carried by the group if I'm still not getting it).

If you're patient and like engaging with/mastering a bunch of gear/progression systems, I'd definitely recommend giving it a try. I've had a blast, and since I don't spend money on it, I don't have any pressure to keep playing once I stop enjoying it.

As someone who has been playing games for ass long time, this has to be one of the single worst new player experiences I have ever had the displeasure of going through and in my humble opinion it's not even close.

I knew full well coming into this that the game had a terrible rep, a wretched playerbase and was P2W down to it's very core when I started late last year but good god... This game is just an exercise in frustration and how much of the ceaseless nonsense you're willing to tolerate before you stop playing or start spending real money. And not just a few bucks, real money.

If you're interested in starting fresh and going through the story and leveling process naturally. Just stop. Go back. This game is not for you. They quite literally offer quarterly free passes to have people skipped through all that so you can start spending cash earlier. I tried the natural way and it was just an entirely unfun and laborious task. The ONLY people you will see are 15 man BOT trains. The only thing you do is slog through the snail paced story and just 1shot everything up until a certain point learning absolutely nothing about the game. If you don't want that you can use one of their passes so you get dropped into the middle of nowhere with zero idea wtf is going on and 420 different systems to navigate with each one being more convoluted then the next.

If you do decide to play from level 1 you're in for a real treat. The story is generally terrible for the first 50 or so levels. You can't do any of the mainline dungeons because you need a group for it and zero players queue for it so that's out. Once you get to a certain gear item level you can finally start doing group content but nope you can't because this game is inundated with gatekeeping whales who fail to realize that this game is absolutely dead and think that if they singlehandedly pay smilegates electricity bill this month something will change for the better. Conversely, the new players just seem to want to be carried through every single thing by high level players with maxed out gear so it truly is a lose lose situation for anyone starting fresh wanting to do anything other than painstakingly slog through weekly resets as a solo player to make a modicum of progress. Even if you were to start with 5 of your best friends, I would bet my entire bank account that at least 3 of them will quit within the first week.

I realize I'm super late to the party here but it's genuinely sad because this game has some good bones. Combat is fun. The raids are fun(mostly) The class identity is there and feels good. They have some really cool/sexy/funny skins and a large variety of them albeit they are very expensive for this type of game(unsuprisingly) The story is almost semi interesting in the much much much later stages of the game. However, every SINGLE other aspect of this game is a chore with a nonsensical system designed to make you spend money or some Insanely frustrating timegate or genuinely trying to make you feel like you're just spinning your wheels unless you swipe just a little bit.

Anyone telling you that this game is "better now" is either lying or my mind can scarcely imagine what is was like when it was "worse." I appreciate the people out there that have made guides/help new folks and the extremely few(2?) people I met in game that were actually nice and didn't seem to be angsty morons with zero social skills raised by angry chimps like the majority of other players. Stay away from this game if you value your sanity and stay away from Smilegate products because if this game doesn't tell you every single thing you need to know about what type of company they are then you need to wake up. This game is dead and has been dead. Just look at the achievements on steam. Look at the player numbers on steam and subtract like 30% for the amount of bots that this game has. Let it die so the healing can begin.

Thanks.

Man, I remember this game only for the good parts of it, then you are reminded why after grinding for 160 hours right at launch and maxing out before the pay 2 win wall hits you, as a reason to never pick it up again. What an insanely amazing concept for an MMO, absolutely butchered by greedy devs and lack of understanding of how humans play video games. Some of the best combat / cutscenes and even story missions of the genre, plagued by a massive miscalculation by the devs to think anyone would grind that hard for that long, with caps on what you can do daily to progress... then leaving that to RnG system that makes you want to smash your keyboard for wasting the time and effort. Biggest let down in the genre for a game I genuinely loved until you "beat it" and realize that progression doesn't exist unless you dump your paycheck into it.
Gross.

I sank 10,000 hours into Lost Ark over three years. A lot of those hours is AFK while multi-task working from home.

The combat is a literal 10/10 – the most fluid, responsive, and skill-expressive action combat ever shipped in an MMO. Every other system exists to gatekeep it.

To earn gold you raid.
You can only do a few raids each week per character.
There is no, "farming to make gold"
You make alts to do more raids, to make more gold.
To raid with pugs you need titles.
To earn titles you need gold → gear → engravings → gems high enough that party leaders actually accept you.
To become a party leader yourself you must have title, gear, engravings, and gems good enough for players to want to join you for the social proof. Then you also need to be able to lead the raid by running the sidereals.

The loop is engineered to pressure Pay-to-Win from the in-game shop. RMT sites always stay one step ahead of bans, so most players I played with swiped that way. Credit-card swiping the cash shop is possible but hilariously inefficient. I watched players drop $50k only to see every single purchase handed out in a new-player pass six months later.

F2P route: maintain six alts, run every single raid on all of them, funnel 100 % of resources into one main. Miss a single week and your character falls behind the ilvl curve, groups won't accept you, and the cycle resets.

I mained Pistoleer when it was universally called a troll spec. Built a partnered YouTube channel around raid nights and Pistoleer gameplay. The eventual buff felt like vindication toward the end before I quit playing.

The deeper problem is systemic burnout by design.

• Novelty-first philosophy: cutscenes and long animations you cannot skip after the first time.
• 12-month patch lag: community screams, developers “listen” exactly one year later.
• FOMO layered on FOMO: cash shop, title gates for pugs, new content dropped exclusively on holidays when normal humans are with family.

Every design decision screams “make it fresh for the first playthrough, make it painful for the 999th.” Replayability was never the goal; retention-through-grind was.

Take Lost Ark’s combat, drop it into a League-of-Legends-story arch & universe that rewards replayability, removes all P2W vectors, and you would have the greatest MMORPG ever made.

What we actually have is a Korean grind factory with god-tier raids and the single best combat engine in the genre, deliberately crippled by monetization, title politics, and anti-replayability systems. Every decision they make feels out of touch, and makes you wonder if anyone designing the game actually plays the game. Also, the stories and scripts are 100% done by AI.

Combat: 10/10.
Everything else: designed to make you quit so they can sell you the solution.

Went in trying to find the Lost Ark but instead got lost for a few hours.

Game would benefit from removing a ton of the luck based progression systems.

Will mark as not recommend even though I keep coming back every few months

Lost Ark's core gameplay is actually really fun, but progression is buried underneath a mountain of bloated systems, mindless busywork, and microtransactions that rivals that of mobile games.

It was so long ago when I played this game, I remembered the bitter experienced and had to leave a review

You see 25 hours there, I was not a call of duty fan, hating the game while enjoying it and having to play one more round, no; my friends were max level and actually played and enjoyed the game, because you have to be max level to actually get to play the real game along finishing the main quest, otherwise you are forbiden from doing anything fun or with friends.

Those 25 hours are 25 hours of skipping text, "walk here, read text, walk there, read text, do this 10 times, good boy here is a 1 minute long fight, great you killed everyone with a single attack, now walk here, read 5 minutes, now walk there..."

I finished it because I had already started and was 20+ hours in to quit, but when I finally finished, god I hated this game, having to give it my little free time I had as a father and provider, "oh I can't have fun today, I need to read text and walk for two hours so maybe in a month I can be on discord with my friends again". what an awful awful experience, I hated each and every hour of a game, making the imposible to stop me from playing "NO NO FUN, READ AND WALK NOW NO DONT KILL THAT I WILL GIVE YOU 1 LEVEL AFTER AN HOUR AND YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO SEE YOUR FRIENDS STOP NOW, WALK AND READ NOW"

Play something else, play rivals now and have fun from minute one, and get all the content from minute one, do not give this people one second of your time, you need to spend 25 hours to play the actual game, and only until then you will know if you like it or not.

Lost Ark es lo que pasa cuando alguien en una sala dijo:
“¿Y si hacemos un MMO con combates espectaculares, 700 sistemas distintos… y cero respeto por el tiempo humano?”
Y nadie levantó la mano para detenerlo.

Empiezas como el elegido. Siempre eres el elegido. El héroe legendario destinado a salvar el mundo de demonios, corrupción y gente con armaduras demasiado puntiagudas. Lo curioso es que hay otros 200 elegidos corriendo a tu lado matando exactamente los mismos enemigos. Exclusividad nivel supermercado.

El combate es, sin exagerar, lo mejor del juego. Es rápido, explosivo, exagerado. Cada habilidad parece diseñada para un tráiler: explosiones gigantes, espadazos imposibles, magos invocando tormentas que podrían alimentar una ciudad. Durante las primeras horas te sientes como una deidad bélica con problemas de control de ira. Y es maravilloso.

Luego llegas al endgame.

Y ahí empieza el verdadero Lost Ark: el simulador de progreso con probabilidades diseñadas por un villano matemático. Mejorar equipo no es subir números, es jugar a la ruleta rusa con tus materiales. Pulsas el botón de “mejorar” con la fe de quien compra un billete de lotería… y el juego responde con un elegante:
“falló”.

Otra vez.
Y otra.
Y otra.

El farmeo se convierte en religión. Haces diarias, semanales, caos dungeons, guardian raids, eventos temporales, contenido limitado, contenido que no sabías que existía pero aparentemente es obligatorio. Tu calendario empieza a parecer la agenda de un político corrupto.

Las raids son espectaculares, eso sí. Mecánicas complejas, coordinación real, patrones que castigan errores con brutalidad quirúrgica. Son el punto más alto del juego. También son el lugar donde descubres que tu grupo aleatorio tiene la coordinación de cuatro gatos jugando al ajedrez.

Visualmente es precioso. Escenarios enormes, ciudades vibrantes, efectos que llenan la pantalla de luz y partículas hasta que no sabes si estás peleando o viendo fuegos artificiales patrocinados por la destrucción masiva. Es un festival constante de estímulos.

La historia… existe. Tiene demonios, traiciones, épica dramática y nombres que olvidarás cinco minutos después. No está mal, pero seamos honestos: nadie recuerda el argumento cuando está calculando porcentajes de mejora y tiempos de reinicio.

Y luego están las clases. Muchas. Demasiadas. Todas atractivas. Todas tentadoras. Todas con la promesa de “esta sí será mi main definitivo”. Mentira. Cambiarás tres veces.

En resumen, Lost Ark es un MMO con combate brillante, estética espectacular y un sistema de progresión que parece diseñado para poner a prueba tu estabilidad emocional. Es adictivo, frustrante y absolutamente impresionante cuando funciona.

⭐ Nota final:
⚔️ 10/10 en combates que te hacen sentir dios
🎲 6/10 en probabilidades que juegan contigo
📅 12/10 en convertir tu tiempo libre en contrato laboral

Solo raid make sure now you will NEVER had to play with all the morons still playing on this game.
This is, by far, the worst community ever.
But this is, imo, the most beautifull game in term of combat experience, special effect and class diversity.
This not a diablo like game. you will have to invest a lot of time to build your rosters (eventhough with the recent change, you just have to grind through the stoty to access the beginning of end game)
After a 2y break, im still enjoying it as a returning players, the level of "chore" you have to do daily has been heavy lifteed, and you can now focus on solo raid and level up your roster.
Not for anynone, but not the garbage showed by recent review

É realmente triste o que foi feito com esse jogo ao longo dos anos.
Ainda é um dos melhores combates actions no mercado e, falando de isométrico, é o melhor.
Infelizmente, a ganância, o descaso e nenhum trabalho por parte da publicadora o deixaram em um estágio onde qualquer farm é insano. Conteúdos magníficos tanto em desafio quanto em fluidez de combate desperdiçados em prol de um sistema predatório de FOMO, criação de alts e atividades repetitivas sem nenhum sentido.
Quem sabe um dia teremos privates desse jogo que saibam aproveitar melhor seus pontos positivos do que seus próprios criadores.
