Finally quit the Loot Box addiction game - very happy

I was stressing over letting my alliance down for nearly 2 months, then today I finally messaged R4 R5, said I'm leaving in 10 minutes, I'll donate my Lvl25 account & nearly a billion in RSS boxes to you guys, just give me an email to bind it, and it was done.

luckily, I never spent any money, just loads of grinding daily every 4 hours, and it was extremely repetitive. Looking back, the only fun thing was trying to reinforce alliance HQ's against attacks.

I mainly play Open World games (Horizon Zero Dawn, CyberPunk 2077, Death Stranding, BOTW, TOTK), theres a bit of a grind that levels up the character, but it unlocks new stories, new parts of the game in unpredictable ways.

In this LastZ, theres no story, its the same 10 mini-games on repeat, with slightly higher enemy stats each round. And it's just overfilled with loot boxes, my god.

No hate, I def spent many hundreds of hours easily, enjoyed some of the drama in the alliance and WC too, but sort of wish I hadn't downloaded the game to begin with, because the grinding didn't unlock new experiences or fun, just more and more grinding.

Note: How did I even download it? Facebook advertised a strategy shooter game that resembled a Tower Defense type of game, and I was stuck on a long road trip so why not.
