Even the best games won't appeal to everyone.

I don't know if other MMO's add this much free content to their games but at this point it's absolutely crazy when I think back on the games I used to play and how you had to pay $10 to get three or four lousy multiplayer maps in Halo and Call of Duty. Hell, I used to think Battlefield DLC was "a good value" because they tossed in new vehicles and weapons with their map packs.

This game was dead the day they released it without a PvP system where you could play against the specific teams.

Without that, no player-organized tournaments could exist.

And without a PvP scene, games die fast.

<--- played 48 hours during every beta weekend

<--- hit 80 in 4 days

<--- hasn't touched it since the first month of release

Stupid updater wouldnt finish last file.
Had to leave it hanging for 5 hours for the last file to download.

I went in...
Twilight => Check.
212g => check
Precursor price => stupidly inflated still check.
Sign off button => check.


lol...

Until then, all my kuzu are fully fashion war'd out

I HAVE to get back in this game. Playing too freaking much games at once it's getting pathetic.
