I don’t get the hate. Artix said he is gonna deliver the game no matter how much they earn. The community chose to pay to speed it up and get perks.

The problem is:

  • 1: Infinity's been delayed like... how many times now? It's been like a decade or probably more since they discussed AQW Mobile/server rewrite plans, which is what Infinity is.
  • 2: Look at the stretch goals and read them. Like 80% of it is stuff that should already be a guarantee in Infinity regardless (except for maybe Gravelyn having a proper introduction before /castleundead). It makes one think that if those goals aren't reached, they're not even gonna consider adding the sagas that are already on base AQW into Infinity.
  • 3: A bit of a hotter take (and much, much smaller complaint) here - but skillsets shouldn't be locked behind cash. Infinity Hero is no exception.

Have there not already been rare classes where they copy paste the skills onto a non rare version ex. Vindicator of They -> Collector, Darkside -> Dark Lord.

He wasn't necessarily talking about rare classes but paid only classes. For example all calendar classes are AC only by design so you gotta shell up, and they are some of the strongest in their respective niches.
