one of the GMs of that game told me "if you can't play with an unoptimized character, you'd better play MMOs, they're great pastimes."
Turns out I have the same problems with MMOs. There's people that has less time than me but is better at doing things fast or knows how to trade better than me that outdamages me in every PVP, preventing me from getting my "outdamage your PVP arena 5 times" achievement QQ
