I personally find Nothing fun about being disappointed over and over. Hey, If you get your kicks from going 0/300 in Voidwatch, thats your prerogative, and I salute you for that kind of devotion.
Though, I like being rewarded for my Hard work and dedication every now and again.
Either way, for me, there are plenty of more fun and rewarding games in the market today. FFXI Could be too, But they don't want to be.
People like us though, Never change our Mind. You're as set in your ways as i am. We can sit here screaming back and forth at eachother all day and neither of us are going to change our mind.
For the Record, I'm not quitting cause fo Nyzul Isle, I'm quitting because after 9 Years of Trial and Error with this game, Enjoying events with Friends, And having fun throughout, The Game is not fun anymore. Theres a point in everyones life where they have to realize something is not worth the frustration. This game has become more like a job than anything now. A job i pay for, and a job that has no reward.
Again, Kudos to you on still enjoying the game. Please, Go have fun with your new event, I'll be happy to see if you reach 100, no sarcasm. I'm waiting for that first group to do it, I want it to happen.
The only fun i have left in this game is doing things with my friends, And most of them are quitting too because of the direction the game is going. Its not just 1 Event, Its the compilation of bad planning, No listening, and R.N.G's over the last 9 years, People growing up, Having families, Getting a life, Etc. Theres many reasons to end a game, Sometimes its just the Straw that breaks the camels back though.
~Oh, I almost forgot, don't you ever tell someone its pathetic to quit a game, I don't care who. Not for a single reason should a person ever be condemned for moving on with their life. FFXI is just a game, When a game stops being fun to someone, They should move on, Who gives a shit what you think about their reasoning. Everyone enjoys different things in life, When someone decided something is no longer of interest, They move on with their life. Nothing Pathetic about it.
Maybe we both need to reevaluate how we look at this. I can see to some people this event can be fun, But you need to realize after 9 years, Some people don't have the time or energy to dedicate to this type of hardcore event anymore.
