So tired

Mikan · 07-20-2008, 03:03 PM

Dear friends,

I would just like to say that I am too tired to play anymore and that I have decided to take a permanent leave. To that end, I will be giving my characters away to a friend to ensure that I never return again.

It is sad that for many of us Regnum Online is merely an addiction and has almost no redeeming qualities. And it is even more sad that I don't ever see this changing because NGD doesn't want to understand what it means. I've always tried to keep it a healthy addiction, trying to value the better aspects of the game; the promise, the potential. But that potential is so far away now, and I'm not convinced it will ever truly be realized.

Some may say, don't take the game so seriously. But the truth is, you have to put forth so much work, so much effort in Regnum Online, and even your hard-earned money, just to get anywhere notable in the game. It's a bit hard to not take something serious when you've been forced to put forth so much effort just to play it. And unfortunately, this particular aspect of the game just continues to get worse and worse over time.

The only redeeming quality Regnum Online has had up until now is that it wasn't like every other MMO, but with recent changes, now it is. But unlike other MMOs it doesn't have all of the content, social interaction and other elements that make those games great despite the downsides such as grinding or being item-based.

I guess what I am trying to say is that I have come to believe it is just a waste of time.

Goodbye.

The only thing that is keeping me with RO is the community.

I know what you're saying

, but thanks for being here for a "long time"

See you Katie.

I lose interest in the game from time to time, but now i'm continuously take breaking when I play in one day just to de-stress myself from the lag/bugs/etc. But I keep playing, just switch chars all day >.<

Keep coming on IRC or something, always nice to talk to you!

It's sad to see you go. This game is nothing but a shell of what it used to be. The people have left, the game has deteriorated. I wish you the best in whatever you do. I'll miss asking you stupid n00b questions.

Goodbye Katie!

It is kind of an addiction for me but with the people of regnum that i have met and by taking some short breaks, it makes me stay.

Good luck and take care!

backe · 07-20-2008, 03:25 PM

This is a real loss to both Syrtis and Regnum.

I do hope you stop to say hi every now and again Katie, and on IRC! It's always great to talk to a real player.

All the best to you.
