I quit perfect world a long time ago, back when 85 was high and you couldn't earn it through oracles. Back when gold was around 100-200k. Back when gold was 300K. Now what is happening? PWe knows PWI is dieing, so they simply ruin the economy even move. I remember when the panda was worth about 20 mil+, not because it was in the shop for 25 gold but because it was rare. Back when PWI cared about their people. Honestly I doubt many old people really play PWI anymore, all the people in Essence( i think thats the lost city guys ) are all people who bought oracles and the best gears. I'm glad I played PWI when it was good, when it was possible to get that new mount with hard work, unlike know where it requires you to grind for about 2 days straight ? If you're lucky.

Inb4 lock or ban, I doubt PWe would want people saying this about the new corrupted PWI

    It happens, unfortunately that's just life. PWI own the game and therefore they can do as they like to it. They may have completely killed it with excessive sales, but they got rich from it, so I guess it worked out ok for them. Games like this cater purely to highly addicted rich uber-obsessed type of players, not the players looking for a rewarding and enjoyable gaming experience. Plenty of other games out there that do that.

    What baffles me though is they killed it just before a massive expansion. I know quite a large chunk of the player-base wont be around to see it. Myself, I have a sub for a P2P waiting for me at Christmas. And a lot of the players who do hang around will have very little incentive to splash out more cash after the whole thing with OP sins, 5.0, and crazy hyper/oracle promotions last expansion.

    The expansion itself must have cost a good deal of cash, and I can guarantee it will not earn them as much as the rising tide did. Really, from a business perspective, they should have just forgot the expansion and left the servers running in the background until they stopped yielding profit or broke down, and concentrated on their other games

    With current gold prices driving the good things up and the useless things down the blame is to go all around. <---lol

    The droprate seems to be lower and i say this from perfect memory of what it was like before 2x events. Not easily tricked by optical illusions am i.

    But to my point of posting, it still requires hard work, harder work then before really since TT mats are next to cheap so making money is hard. And for the people who can kill the hard bosses in 3-x they are not selling cheap making getting better gear harder as well.

    When we see the lives of the angels going dark, we shall hear the song of the withering bark, the trees, the flowers, the sun and the water, they speak of the old days with such mournful sentiments. The TTs are boring, the warsongs are learning that the players are morning the lost of their lives.

    I think i need sleep...

    You should recruit people to join you for the launch of Forsaken World. Be quick to make memories of it though, because eventually PWE will launch a cash shop sale which will break economy and make many people and their mothers angry.

    Lets not forget how grinding and crazy stone was the way to level either. Ah, 300k for a gold hp/mp charm. I quit around the time that genies came in (and evil...y when to private servers ._.), but everything that's happened since Rising Tide has just made me lol.
    Level 74 before genies showed up o.o

    Time to move on to a game where devs are stupid enough to let people easily make a living by playing their games. Can we disgruntle people just take a hike and move on though or are we going to troll these forums forever?

    Aren't you that really horrible cleric that I used to be in Ominous with? You used to spam me with whispers saying "tell starla to SING SING SING" and "SING SING SING SING" while we were in vent cause she BL you? You were a freak and a creeper.

    BTW, many people in Essence have been playing for years. And while some of them hyper oracled, most of them are relatively skilled.

    b:bye
    I post in forums. This one and others. That's why I post.

    Inb4 the stone age of 2008.

    When I was a kid, no one gave a **** about the "long time ago" stories. Oh wait, still don't.

    Just a thought -- if you quit, stop posting and play another game? I played back when gold was 80-100K and it was worth getting the crappy 1m chests too. Guess what? Just as many whiners. You're not in some elite and exclusive club just because you played that long, nor are you cool just because you played when gold was a lower coin value. The game will also not even blink that you supposedly quit. Scores more players replaced you, and they're likely more useful.
