A sad goodbye

rogueish · 06-12-2017, 08:19 AM

First of all I'd like to thank all at NGD for many years of enjoyment I've gotten from Regnum, while I've played other games this was the only one that I always came back to. I'd also like to thank all the friends I've made in game and wish them all the best.

I've come to the realization that as hard as it is to face that Regnum is no longer the game it once was. Regnum started as a PvP game about field battles and hunting. Then invasions were added which gave further options for activity. There were many changes over the years, some I didn't mind, admittedly most I disliked, but no real dealbreakers. Then came the obsession with making the game revolve around invasions, and although class balance was thrown out the window at least two players of the same class were on equal footing.

The dragon amulets were bad enough and their rarity on Raven was one of the greatest benefits of playing there. But now with all the assorted OP gears and jewelry Regnum has finally crossed the line where it is really no more than a low graphic version of every other MMO that is out there.

It's really sad that the devs don't realize that the reason Regnum has outlasted just about every other MMO from its time was because of its uniqueness, and every change to try and copy all those other "modern MMOs" simply made Regnum less unique and will ultimately lead it to going where most other MMOs already are which is oblivion.

I am truly sad right now but feel unable to continue in a game where no skill is required rather whichever zerg has the most conjurers wins. Regnum Online started as the best, most unique MMO I have ever found as can be shown by its longevity, it's just too bad the devs didn't appreciate what they had and chose to try and copy the format of every other short term MMO that has come and gone over the last decade.

Anyone can flame this post if they like but I truly wish all players well and hope NGD can save the game somehow.
