You want to know why it's hard to stick to any of these mmo's? The beginning always sucks you in. The drop rate is super high and it feels like the entire game will be like that. You end up getting pk'ed as soon as you join an open area and then have to choose your path wisely because some virgin thinks it's fun to camp you when you don't even have gear or levels yet. Then you start leveling up fairly well and have WAY too many skills to even know when to use each, how to time their cool downs, or you don't even use half your skills because you're too lazy to deal with it. You start to have to compete with others for mobs when questing. Dungeons are either extremely easy solo and don't re-spawn the mobs immediately after leaving or are far too difficult to do multi man ones alone. Eventually you run into a point where you run out of inventory space and the only way to expand your inventory is to buy an expansion off the item mall for $5. Lastly you eventually give up because you see exactly what the game is going to turn into. You waking up to grind all day for the same shit to eventually get something that won't even matter in pvp because the p2w's will always beat you anyways is not a pretty sight.
THE FIX: NO ITEM MALLS EVER AGAIN. ONE TIME BUY AND YOU'RE GOOD. Less character skills so that combat turns into more talent based endeavors other than a skill spamming fest. When gear becomes almost pointless due to character skills ruling the game, then you AREN'T DOING IT RIGHT!! No more stupid ass flying traveling. TELEPORT where ever at a cost and done! REEEEEEEGIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIION LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOCK! I'm sick of south americans and russians in my fucking USA server. JUST STOP!!! This last one will blow you away and it should for good reason! OFFER every single mmo you make as a stand alone single player game as well. Could you imagine the bank they would make doing something like this and the amount of people that it would appeal to? You could even go one further and add tcp/ip support for up to 8-16 players for you and your friends. And for the idiots saying, "well how are they supposed to keep the game updated?" You don't need updates in single player unless the game is super broken. Updates are always for server maintenance, events and PVP, because people bitch about classes non stop it then becomes a standard.
