TL;DR Why do you continue to play Dust?
This question has been bothering me for ages, why do people continue to play Dust 514? I can only fathom 3 reasons as to why people continue to play the game:
A)People continue to play, as they have the notion they have something to prove in Planetary Conquest; to show the world they are capable of having an impact on it. Mainly so they can gloat to the community and rub their etits that they got somewhere in PC. Despite the fact the competition seems to be rather limited with 3 powerhouse corps all merging into one, and a fraction of new players, actually consistently playing the game. And no one cares if x corporation gets somewhere, the game has consistently declining amount of players, and most of the good corps from around a year ago donGÇÖt play anymore.
B)People cannot afford any new games, so they continue to play Dust. Even though it is evident Dust is becoming like your typical pay to play / play to win game which is seen in pretty much all new content, somehow consisting of you having to spend AUR.
C)People liked to be pissed off. From asking around recently, and afking in matches, no one has ever showed a little sign that they even enjoy the game. Which was established as I never heard anyone happy or laughing at something, just rage about everything, weapons, terrain, players, etc
I asked a few people this question, and they said they still play because their friends do, which is understandable. However, if this is the case and we presume most people play for this reason, why donGÇÖt people realize this and just go to another game.
So please, leave a reply below and help me achieve peace of mind, and tell me why you continue to play.

Let me ask you this - what other game supports voice to up to 20+ people and lets an almos infinite amount of others chill with you at the same time in a channel you can name yourself?
It's not so much the game as the social tools and interaction - you can't find this anywhere else but a PC MMO.
Good point, I understand it, but I'm talking about it as a game, not a social network. Don't you usually just leave the game running on voice in a channel? and not actually playing it much?

But there seems to currently be a lack of competition with those 3 corps merging into that 'something something purgatory.' To my understanding they were the 3 best PC active corps that remained, and they all merged into one. (Though there is not a doubt in my mind some of them are going to leave the orgy for some reason or another)
My knowledge on current active PC corps is a bit antiquated since I haven't participated in PC for ages, so I might be wrong.

I don't play destiny or any cod(shts) though, no thank you.
The forums are also a laugh
I'd say that is a worthy reason, being flexible in how you play
