Lifting Simulator

Lifting Simulator is a game made by Sathopian. It was created on August 14, 2019.

Why It Sucks

 * 1) False advertising: In the group that made this game, it says that the Buy and Sell areas are both Safe Zones, however this is false, as using the Cronus skill can clip you out of the sell zone and kill you.
 * 2) The current thumbnail icon of the game is very weird, as it's just some guy with a text that says "Classic!" on the bottom, which is not logical at all, considering the game is nowhere near as classic.
 * 3) The tutorial is awful, and all it does is tell you normal things you should already know considering its a lifting game. (Most people probably went to this game due to Weight Lifting Simulator)
 * 4) The gameplay is very repetitive and boring. All you do in this game is lift and get Alters and fight bosses, which can get boring very quickly.
 * 5) The game can get extremely unfair at times as well, with a few examples being listed here:
 * 6) * When you join in the game, you are vulnerable for the time being, which can cause you to die and lose a lot of stuff (Like halfing your fame, ruining killstreaks etc)
 * 7) * Players can sell or conceal before you can kill them.
 * 8) * Some badges are impossible to get nowadays, with one example being the "Godly" badge.
 * 9) * You can actually get kicked for flying if you go to the Cronus God while big.
 * 10) * It's pretty much impossible to get on any of the leaderboards due to the amount of grinders that are in the game.
 * 11) * When you die, you can lose half of your fame, and all of that hard work you put into getting the fame would be mostly gone, Especially if you have insane amounts like over 500K+
 * 12) * Player hunter is quite overpowered, as you can join a player's server and just kill them.
 * 13) * If you dont spend any robux, It becomes very difficult and probably near impossible to progress after alter 15, as genetics will fall behind.
 * 14) Some items are either designed very strangely, or are just unbalanced, with a few examples being listed here:
 * 15) * Some Weights have names such as GODTIER 1 and GODTIER 2, which don't really make that much sense.
 * 16) * Mutation isn't necessarily a weight, but the game says it is.
 * 17) * Some of the Bloodline transformations are usually just some sort of weird skin from the catalog.
 * 18) * The Hades skill is too overpowered (about 3x more damage then every boss) even though it's not supposed to be.
 * 19) * The Athena skill is extremely underpowered, especially since that it's the third final god skill you can obtain.
 * 20) * Alter 4 causes a lot of lag, especially for lower end computers.
 * 21) * When you are very small and have Alter 10 or higher, you will sometimes clip out of the map and possibly die.
 * 22) * Alter 20 and higher Alters are only made out of armor, and some Alters such as Alter 25 are only red and purple armor.
 * 23) The developers are very greedy, with a few examples being listed here:
 * 24) * Private servers cost 300 R$.
 * 25) * Pets are confirmed come to the game in the future, which will most likely lead to more microtransactions.
 * 26) * Extremely expensive coins that shouldnt be at the price they are currently at.
 * 27) * It costs 2000 R$ to just double your strength which is equal to $25 (U.S.). It doesn't help that sometimes the gamepasses don't work until you rebuy them, meaning that you'll be wasting Robux.
 * 28) The VIP gamepass is not very useful, as it really doesn't grant anything that powerful past alters 3 and above. To make matters worse, the VIP gamepass has been 50% off for the past year which proves the developers don't seem to care about it anymore.
 * 29) There isn't that much effort put into the game, with a few examples being listed here:
 * 30) * The game is filled with free modeled stuff, like trees and spiders, and even the Halloween update has free models as well.
 * 31) * The logo for the Halloween update has been the same for every single update.
 * 32) * 2021's Halloween update was very bland, as the only change was 2x muscle gain, and to make matters even worse, it took the developers 7 months to make the update.
 * 33) * Same thing can be said for christmas updates (Which you dont see a lot of now)
 * 34) The game gets very grindy eventually, and what makes grinding even worse is that sometimes the game will randomly crash. A few examples of grinding can be seen here:
 * 35) * Beating Chronos requires alter 10, then it skips all the way to alter 20.
 * 36) * After getting the Grand Duke Bloodline, everything beyond that takes way too much grinding to get.
 * 37) The game will insult you when you die, which can get pretty annoying at times.
 * 38) There are annoying sound effects when you kill people with Alters, with one example being when you have the Cronus skill while massive and any '"Alter" will scream it in your face multiple times.
 * 39) The amount the Weights give is very inaccurate, and it's only true until you get the first body Alter. After that when you get higher and you get more amounts of Muscle, it says it'll give you at best a few million Muscle.
 * 40) Because Lifting Simulator 3 blew up, Sathopian used this to rip-off the game and milk it for money.
 * 41) The Christmas 2021 update just added more P2W items and even more body Alters, this yet again proves the developers are greedy for money.
 * 42) As of April 16, 2022, only 1 person has beaten the game, and it was by microtransactions. This means that the developers were trying to make the game as hard as possible so they can make more robux. As of September 30, 2022, GrumpyGravy remains to be the only person at the final alter, with the closest people being 2 alters away from Gravy.
 * 43) Sathopian is a terrible owner; Kitsune, one of the main developers of many sathopian games (including this one) quit due to the game being a buggy mess and having to work almost 24/7 with little sleep.
 * 44) Calculations on this game have shown that this game takes a total of 4 years being on 24/7 to finish this game with every gamepass (and without spending coins which are super expensive). To be specific, to get the first new weight at the final alter, it takes 90 days. And not just that, this game was made on August 14, 2019, 3 years ago. By the time you finish this, the game would of more then doubled its age.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) The updates give you more room then you used to have so you can escape people faster.
 * 2) On some events, you get double weights or coins, which makes it easier to progress.
 * 3) The thumbnail icon art is pretty awesome, especially for the boss update's art.

Trivia

 * Big YouTubers sponsor this game constantly, such as GrumpyGravy, yet Grumpy diecided to get all the alters and get to #1 using coins which are AN OBVIOUS SCAM. Grumpy never played this since
