Its a balance. You cant do it all at once, which I find refreshing. Do you train stats or level, war or crime, long term gain vs short term advantage. The different approaches is what makes it challenging. Donators will always be able to buy themselves ahead of everyone else.
As you evolve your character you become a player in someone elses game, when I was new, Mudpies was a target and difficult to beat as he had high stats for his level, Pullo was the big boss at the top of the game. Chris and Sarge powerhouses of the game. Now its all changed. and will again. If you want it all now, it will become stale and youll burn out.
Achieving that new weapon or next house should be a challenge and not something given to you on a whim. If you want it, buy it. Otherwise see the long term picture and play |
