    I don't aim for much in this game and I play rather casually now, so yeah, things are fine to me.
    Further explanations can be given to you if you require them.
    Maintenance time. Please choose a line:
    - When is it over? OMG I need my fix!! *super spazzing*
    - Fix the damn bugs, dammit! I'm so angry! I'll quit!!
    - New codes out there? I like free stuff~ *wink*
    - When will we get new content? QQ
    - Will we get sales? I got a ton of gold to spend.
    - I'm bored, I'll create a useless thread to annoy Opkorock.
    - *Incessant poking on Sweetiebot* Fun~

    I'm so disappointed for the "hyped up update" Oh well. I'm gonna go terrorize the level 30's doing their quests. I hope the GMS don't mind. b:kiss

    By the way. I tell them to say their prayers 1 shot them, tell them they're a 1 shot, then say GF and run away on my evil Black Dinosaur of death. b:pleased

    yes, because i haven't seen it all yet. once i get into every instance, get a good look at every boss, and get to see all the game content --- then maybe i'll do what all those bored endgamers crying for more 100+ content on the forums "because we pay all the zen in this game" logically should do, and find something else to do with my free time.

    or maybe i'll stay to hang out with the friends i'm making. time will tell. in the meantime, there's still more parts of the game i haven't played yet.

    I still love it. I never reached any levels past 90, so I basically agree with what Lenie said. I haven't stepped foot inside nirvana yet, and I really intend to get my sin in there one day before they close the servers. I don't see how people are QQing that you can get to 100 in a week... I've been trying for like 2 now and have only hit 68 xD But maybe that's cuz I'm not doing it constantly... I have a life to live outside the game. b:surrender

    *Approved* One of the reasons I am still around these parts.
    Mastering all classes (or at least know how to use the skills properly be it solo or in squad) is a nice challenge, even if you have to redo the same quests on each new character.

    But still, PWI is 'srs bsns' to many. Not me at least.

    I was hoping there would be zero no's...because if you don't enjoy playing PWI anymore, why are you still playing? :(

    I still enjoy playing PW, mainly because I still don't know every single little thing. I started playing in October of '08, rolled my archer in about June of '09, and I'm STILL learning stuff here and there.

    This is a very good question. If not for enjoyment, then why the hell wouldn't one play something else that does give them enjoyment?

    Nope. No enjoyment. And it's all because of these pesky 'sins.

    Yes, but these stupid motorcycles have drastically decreased my enjoyment. I like to play with sound effects on and now I have to mute it in archosaur.

    None of the other mounts make noises. Turn off the damn bikes! Their ugliness is enough.

    soon to enter the cash shop, motorbike mufflers; they make other players' motorbikes emit no more than a soft purring sound. only five gold.

    ...i'm going and giving them ideas i shouldn't, aren't i?

    Yes, even after over 2 years and all the sometimes less then perfect aspects of the game, I still love playing PW and will continue to play. All I ever see is people complaining about the game, and yes there have been times when I complained too, so here is my thumbs up to you PWI. b:thanks b:pleased

    As a side note, the bikes are fine but the sound of them is irritating b:surrender

    I'm not sure what all the negativity is about, but for me, I don't *dislike playing the game. I have trouble forming groups, and there's no one to trust, and I have some inter-faction problems that I can't seem to iron out because no one will talk to me about them, but the game itself is still fairly fun.

    If there is a problem, it's the fact that the game is fun to those who play it... while those who are designing, adjusting, adding and subtracting things don't really seem to care if people enjoy it or not. They just do as they please for the most part, and those who play have to accept it. The problem therefore is not if we enjoy playing the game, but WILL we CONTINUE to enjoy playing the game if things remain the way they are or keep going in random directions.

    Let's be honest. Motorcycles in PWI are stupid. There are so many other ideas they could have worked with. LAg is still a HUGE issue, as well as terrain mapping, and has been from the start. I doubt anyone would complain of no new content if the devs actually fixed that instead.

    This morning, I logged in and nothing came up. Instead of all my characters, there was just a blank screen, as if they had all been deleted. I was about to freak out, but tried reloading after waiting a bit first, which seemed to fix it, even though that too took a while before any characters showed. This is the kind of thing I'm talking about fixing, rather than adding out of place things into the game.

    When people complain, there's a good amount of whining in it. There's always gonna be such. But there are people who ask for things that are honestly good and reasonable things as well, and the people who (if there ARE any people who) read these comments should be able to tell the difference between a troll, a whiner and someone with an honestly good idea or valid complaint.
