hi, should i play this game?

It seems like i really shouldn't be playing this game. i think if a new player came i would tell him to take his time getting to max level because there is nothing but disappointment in store for them at that level. Tell new players that the end game content is dominated by the big spenders? 90% of the community have failed multiple TIME GATED craft-able items. Gear is at a stand still. The games moto seems to be fail fail fail fail, having fun?? here have some more fail... It seems like the goal is once again starve the players into spending money in hopes that they will finally get lucky and get something... BUT you quickly realize the "buffs" in the cash shop dont really do much or change anything noticeably, if you took 1 player with "$ buffs" after about a year you might notice a little bit more success. as for the more common casual gamer, you will find this game to provide more frustration than joy. I think if most people knew the truth of how the game is in current state they wouldn't even start a character. because honestly the endgame for me is a waste of time...
not to mention only 1 server has a large population and pvp is a disastrous joke.. if you decide to waste your time on this game. then good luck to you, may your future with the game be better than mine and many many others who have quit out of frustration.
but none of this is a new development with this group of joksters. they do this every content patch, then try and push new improperly tested content and the servers are still just trying to succeed in a craft or get a drop that isnt garbage..
