Some perspective on why we need autocomplete.

Had a fairly long meeting this morning where a lot of it involved just passive listening, so I had time to periodically glance at my phone to select stuff. In the 3 hours and 30 minutes, I was able to:

- use my 30 battles in grim forest

- three hydra keys

- both chimera battles

- 10 floors of DTH

Things I didn't do, since I had no time:

- iron twins

- 3v3

- live arena

- dungeons of any kind

- faction wars

And that's with almost four hours of available time. We really need to cut that down.

I don't think Raid is ever going to please everyone - nor should it try.

But that doesn't detract away from the fact that time spent in game is an absolutely massive issue - especially for those who play primarily on mobile. Actual functioning background battles are a great first step but there needs to be autocomplete in a lot more areas of the game and/or other ways to expedite matters. I am very much end game but when there's:

Live Arena, Tag, some Classic everyday 

Hydra/Chimera weekly (granted Hydra has auto but depending on how sweaty your clan is 1-2 keys probably want to be manual)

Siege every other week, PR CvC once a month 

Doom Tower (fine, this should be fast for later game)

Cursed City

Hard Faction Wars

Grim Forest

It just gets to be a bit much.

I  suppose  at  end  of the day  WHAT does  RAID  want  to  be ???????????????TRUTH

mobile game =  I  hear  you  loud  and clear  and  ASH  says  he  spends  20  hrs   a week  on  his  phone playing  RAID

NOW  ME!!!   I  am  a  MMO  RPG  gamer  who  LOVES  grinding  and  countless  hrs  spent  in a  MMO  to  better  my  account  progress= reward  ON  PC  gaming  PCs

Crazy  that  any  video agme  can  compete  with  both  genre   mobile/PC.  IMO

But  Raid  does  it  some how.   Raid  attracts the older generation  MMO  players  who  have  dope  PCs  and  in  same  breath  the  youbger  mobile  players  (which  I  am  not)  playing  on  phones.

Its  honestly  crazy  how they manage to keep  all  engaged.  I  think  Grim  Forest  really  helped them attract  NEW  customers  while  still  entertaining  old  folk  like me  ;)

I  do  not have the answers to  make  it all work  but  to  be clear  I AM  accepting  of  some for  of  SIM  fights  for  older  content  assuming  you  proved  your account  can  do  it repeatedly  ;)

You say that you love the game, and anyone paying attention knows that you vote with your wallet periodically.  

You also say that you wish you could spend more time per day playing,, but you skip a lot of the end-game content that requires work.  That is certainly your perogative, but Raid does offer you more opportunities to engage with their content.

The part that I don't really get here PG, is that you've already stated you do everything on autobattle. Which is totally fine, to be clear. But if you do everything on autobattle, you clearly aren't actually watching the game as these are happening. Why wouldn't you want those to just complete automatically? The autobattle part can't possibly be the part of the game you enjoy.

That's all we're asking for. To make the monotonous part of the game disappear. What made this game fun, for me at least, was discovering everything, and understanding how to get past those challenges. Now that I'm long-since past those, I see no interest at all in just having to spend hours getting through them. If I have an hour or two a day to spend, I don't want to spend it on stuff I've already completed - and I especially don't want to feel like I *have* to, because if not, I'll fall behind.
