The current expansion is by far their worst... not to mention the total lack of managing the rampart out of control RMT and Botters.
Now they are adding Trust, so you can Solo everything with your own Bots, the future is not looking so good...
awwh don't be a killjoy in this thread at least.

OP this was lovely to read! I also remember really struggling to get into this game, having tried out a whole bunch of MMOs to see what suited me best (e.g. WOW/Aion/Wildstar etc.) I can't remember the exact time I clicked with the game, but the old MMO I played didn't have a GCD so I remember that was sooo weird to get used to! I think it was the last couple of quests of the 2.0 story, the 8man dungeons that actually I remember enjoying, if only because I saw the name "Rock the Castrum" amongst many other puns. I think just after that was when I started to read into the lore of the game and got the first lorebook, still one of my favourite purchases.
I've taken some breaks here and then, never really longer than 2 weeks but that's more because of the occasional wait for a next patch, but rn it's still my favourite game and I'm very much looking forward to Shadowbringers =D
