If we wanted to respect our time we wouldn't be playing games.

I don't really think that's mutually exclusive.

I can agree with this, but at the same time I can't help but feel there is a disconnect between reality and perception when it comes to the vocally displeased oprtion of the player-base. What I mean by this is that many of the people critical of the game don't hate it. They don't want to quit. They simply want to see more of what it used to be and less of what it's becoming. There's definitely some sunken time/cost fallacy going on as well. After all, a lot of us have been here for a very long time. The exploitative housing system is just one component.

Joke's on you. I'm only still around until my sub finally runs out. If I could've refunded my remaining time, I would have. Since I can't, I'm trying to get as close to my money's worth as possible.
Let that be a lesson, kids: never go above a month-long sub to vidja games; you never know when the ship will start sinking.

I love how the white knights hate people who are voicing their genuine criticisms towards the game, but then turn around and make troll threads like this.

Bravo, you played yourself.

On this we completely agree. Well, the wanting to get your moneys worth part no, it's just not worth it imo. Single months though, that's all I do. Mine is up soon as well, and I'll be moving on for a few months.

Its almost as if thats an overplayed term to belittle other players and that I was never a white knight as many people like go throw that around!

I feel like that Louis CK skit ( is it okay to talk about him again yet or is he still cancelled?) where he talks about how amazing it is that we can sit in a metal tube in the sky with wifi and still be uhappy. Everything is amazing and people are still unhappy. Im happy.

I mean, I immediately gave away my cover as soon as somebody responded, but that doesnt mean Im a white knight.

I consider myself more of a dark knight, or a rebel that rebels other rebels.
