Sadly, I have to agree that we're paying to play in an open beta. Theres a lot of things that I can see could have been done differently. While the concepts and ideas of "something unique" is very alluring, theres a reason other games are doing it the way they are; It works. I would like nothing more than to see this game succeed. I do think that it is salvagable, and that it should NOT be scrapped entirely to start over. There have been tremendous improvements to the game, however the core of the game is still unchanged. I feel that some issues are deeper than a simple fix. I am glad to have a voice in the direction the game expands into. I hope everyone else will agree with me.. There is no way to make EVERYONE happy, but there is a difference in enjoying a game or simply being content with how things are. Many more improvements will need to be made if we ever hope for this game to fulfill its potential. I hope to still be playing when it finally reaches those expectations.
