More Customize Skill

My statement was generalized because I have played countless MMO's over the years, and every single goddamn one runs the same course.

At the start, and in early levels, everyone loves building their character and exploring options. Eventually, the playerbase gets skilled enough to find what builds and strategies are better than others. The meta forms and stabilizes, only changing with balance patches.

Player customization is a hollow promise.

Player customization is a hollow promise.

By that degree, so too is "an interesting world setting" within a given MMO. I mean, gameplay's just going to end up being a boss arena accessible to the (slight minority) of players playing the "real" game, right?

It may be unprecedented, and a developer's promise to make it may just be sweet nothings, but it itself is not a hollow promise.
