In other words, "We can't do the things the community wants to make the game viable in a reasonable amount of time."

From what I've seen, the game is little more than some store assets and a really grindy crafting system. There's basically nothing to the game. So someone calls it a "sandbox" and thinks it's okay to have a useless game. It's a touch above a walking simulator.

If you're going to make a sandbox game, that's fine. But if you don't have quests or other content, you need to have the TOOLS for that sandbox. And this game doesn't. It's just... SAND.

The 101 MMO mistake, early access too early. Just having the barebones mechanics and throw it on early access is a recipe to people play, run into how little there is and give up on the game, to maintain a live service like this is rather suicidal.

This is the type of game that needs alpha/beta tests/periods that close and re-open once larger milestones are achieved.

While its a playable game, you are right in that its missing the Tools to make it a SandBox. It is also a Grind Crafting simulator, that has a lot of balance issues, or direction decisions that need to be made.
Content variety is where it lacks the most, as it needs more varied points of interest. Once you have done a dungeon once or twice, they are all the same and that's just a grind as well.

I had high hopes for this. I'm in between getting the game and supporting further development and waiting until it's a bit more playable, risking the game turning into nothing due to a lack of support.

A mega guild came in and bought all the plots surrounding mine. Then they put up a wall surrounding me, telling me to leave and now I can't get out. Such a waste a time. I already put in a ticket for it, but they've done nothing about it. Done with that game.

Well they said that wasn’t acceptable so maybe try again.

I'm very curious as to what server you are on...as I was hearing chatter about someone doing this on mine.

I don't think I would have been able to resist the temptation to grief the hell out of these guys.   One thing is for sure, I'd be holding that plot FOREVER.

Or sell it to them for a ludicrous amount of money. And be sure to let them know the price only increases thereafter.
