DUST Search - The Dilemma None Of Us Wish To Face...

I guess theres very little we can do now. Dust is dead. We all know this. But one problem remains with Legion.

Now, Legion itself is as we all know, what Dust should have been. Which presents a massive problem.

For us, Dust is no longer a game, it is an addiction. And that is the problem we all face. We're gonna have to face it, the likelihood of Legion on PS4 is very slim, which has alienated 90% or so of the community who are console based players, and some, like me, have never played a game like this on PC (Minecraft and Kerbal Space Program dont count for me). Thing is, we are all going through this feeling of being slapped in the face and humiliated, and worst of all, used. What we are also experiencing is withdrawal.

The game which we have dedicated so much time, effort, faith, and money to is dead:

As we know it.

CCP know we're addicted, they know we are because we're still playing a game they no longer care about. What if Legion is on PC only on purpose? Maybe CCP are unlikely to develop a PS4 version of the game because now, people like us who are addicted and simply cannot go through the withdrawal effect, will be forced to buy a powerful enough PC to run Legion, and conveniently EVE and Valkyrie. Maybe theyre not going to make a PS4 version because its too much effort (despite the fact im sure the PS4 will be powerful enough to run Legion), and because they are clearly more comfortable developing PC games.

Maybe Legion is PC only because CCP want to exploit our addiction and force us to delve further into the world of EVE than a Console can give, by putting all 3 titles in front of us, allowing CCP to get more money, turning over any losses made by the lifespan of Dust.

This effect would be intensified if our current Dust accounts are ported over to Legion successfully with SP and ISK intact.

If so, we're being used again, regardless of how good Legion is. So I will be demanding a refund as soon as possible.

Question is - can you withdraw from the Dust Addiction?

Dust as it currently exists and performs would have never attracted a larger player base. A PS4 version would have helped but it wouldn't have drastically shot up the player count.

CCP will most likely make legion a game where you require an expensive PC to play on.... I'm not up for paying more $ just to play one game.... addiction? no, it was just a free game that was decent to play because we had the promise of improving out toon over a certain amount of years...
