LIES THAT WAS ALL LIES!
Not really, but that looks SO much better than what we have now.... and the 1.19 combat system... Yoshi played with our hopes to get what he wanted... money.
Anyway, I think we are the minority of the 15% on that tricky question of the first poll Yoshi did back then where we answered "NO", here.
That question was absolutely impossible to understand without actually knowing what plans they had in place for the "changes". It should have actually been "Do you want a WoW fan to remake the game as he sees fit, by pillaging its existing assets and lowering the quality of many of them in the process?"LIES THAT WAS ALL LIES!

1.0 was undoubtedly the superior game. It's ludicrous how its unfinished status and bugs turned into what is essentially a different game. Yoshida simply decided he didn't like 1.0. He lied and pretended to be improving the game while making a different one he liked, thus trampling on the very fans who were holding on and paying a subscription. I even remember talks of letting the 1.0 servers on if there was enough demand (and indeed there was). It would have been interesting to see how many would be going to 1.23 now, if both versions were online at the same time!

I DO like ARR, but I miss the original version so much.
The demand to keep that game up was little to none. Developers said they would keep it up as long as people were still on it. It shut down less than a month. I log on to see once in a while if there are other players. Usually less than 20 people were on.That question was absolutely impossible to understand without actually knowing what plans they had in place for the "changes".

Well yeah. At that point none of our progress was being recorded.
You wouldn't think that would matter. The game was so perfect in that state that it should have drawn players regardless of carrying over to the inferior version of the game.
Tons of people played during the beta tests, and those weren't recorded either.
Well if you look at the time frame, there was a new MMO being released at that time....GW2. I think rather than play 1.0 w/o having any progressed saved, a lot of people gave GW2 a try. I was one of those people. There is little motivation to play a game when nothing you do is going to be saved. Beta testing is different as you are finding bugs and getting a preview of what the release will be like.
