I have played this game solo for 8 days and 9 hours (in my /playtime) on and off for years. It was not really that fun at all until trusts got introduced, just to damn hard. I mean I tried to get somewhere but realized at a point it was impossible, not worth the time.. fast forward to all the new things added in the last couple years; Now I have beat the Shadow Lord, about to take on Maat for my limit break,have checked out every expansion a little, got my relic armor.. I feel more accomplished then most games I play even though I am not *That* far. .... I love this game, music, story etc etc.. I have probably partied with random people for about 8 hours total of my play time and I sill love this game. I still love exploring, questing, auction housing etc... I guess I may be a mega dork but its still really fun single player.. I think the realize the demand for it as well when the introduced the trust system... Anyways, I like the idea of playing with people but not many are doing the stuff from 10 years ago like me haha.. Unless I x-fer my character to the Asura server and play on there... this game is better then MOST single player rpg's as it is..
