Having to spam the same thing 20+ times to appreciate the game? Step back a minute and try to explain that to someone on the street.
The very thought of repetition (no guarantee of success) scares most of our players away. What would new players think?
Me: Here, this is an awesome game I log on every day. Make an account and join the fun.
Guy: Really? what do I need to do?
Me: Well, create level 1 character and start stomping spiders. Be careful though, they might bruise you to death. So get ready to flee when your hp goes low.
Guy: Sounds fun. What happens when the spider dies?
Me: Well, you have to kill at least 13 spiders to level up. Then you have more hp.
Guy: What do I kill after that? Can I kill dragons?
Me: Uhh, you'll need to kill spiders till you are level 3.
Guy: Really? Ok, sooooo, I need to kill 30+ spiders, then I can go hunt some badass dragon?
Me: My god, are you real? You are only level 3! Go kill goblins when you are done with spiders. Not any goblins though. Stay on the upper sewers.
Guy: Do I have to kill 1 goblin or 30 goblins?
Me: Nevermind. Go back to your FPS.
