This mmo to me is a lot different than any other I have played..i find it draining at times.i think that is down to the concentration required during combat.can only manage to play 2 hrs at a time before I need a break.with other mmo's I could go for 6 hrs or more.
So the moment I start to feel drained now I log off and walk away from the pc.not sure if its old age lol or just this game.But saying that I,m absolutely loving the challenge in the combat.makes a nice change to have to actively block and manoeuvre.
For me it's just the quests are boring, they feel grindy and I feel like I have to level to progress, there is no sense of exploration, it is like any other themepark MMO and no TES where I explored and just happened to level.
So I guess I should first off say I have enjoyed the combat, questing, exploring, public dungeons, and much more. I think my Top 3 Things in this game have been Skyshard Hunting, Public Dungeons, Crafting. Not much of a crafter in Most MMORPG's so that is a big big thing so far for me.
I have even created over 40 Let's Play Episodes for the game. Though overtime I was starting to do less and less. Before I covered pretty much any and all my gameplay and then I began to be more distant only updating on my progress in the videos.
So I guess most would say take a break you played a lot but that is really not my issue. I have played Minecraft for 4 years with some breaks but overall played it none stop with easily 15,000 hours+ And I run a couple servers for people thinking that is insane so it was a pretty big hobby for me.
What is my biggest issue? Well I love questing but I'm sort of not wanting to quest as much. I guess I ended up falling so much into the exploring and the public dungeons that I ended up going back to stonefields to make sure I had them all done. I have done some PvP but I found the PvP for me did not offer me enough reward to keep going. I don't expect PvP to be equal or offer me more exp then PvE soloing but I would have enjoyed it more if I could at least get 1/3rd of my exp by just taking castles and joining a raid and fighting for my alliance.
I'm not even sure if someone can suggest anything for me to do or if I'm just screwed. I feel a bit depressed that I'm only 23. I do love the idea of a slow leveling system but at the sametime I guess I get brained washed with so many people doing the ring exploits and duo exp grinding with AoE that it makes my little archer sad.
Here is a screenshot of in game of my played and my little cute horse that I grinded up the gold for.
I must be in a different mind state. I view this as fast leveling already. I want to see if any of you can level animal taming from 50-120, in uo with out cheating.
No game will last if you play 16 hours a day. Normally I'm not into this sentence but... Try to get a life? A gf? Play other games etc. all games gets burned out if you play 16 - sixteen - 2/3 of a day playing the same game every single day.
It's like you get a new favorite song and repeats the shit out of only that song until you actually hate it.
I also would be burned out if I played like that . Let the sun shine. You need to go out it is a beautiful spring day here. Out on my terrace right now .

Thats crazy! But I might be in the same boat if I had the time
Sounds like, depending on your tatse, you need to pickup TitanFall or jump into Planetside2. I do that when feeling the RPG burnout creeping in

Looking at your screenshot. Almost 4 entire days worth of /played 4 days after release. Geeze, I wonder what happened...
Of course, I'm sure you had Early access. That brings you average playtime down from 24 hours a day to 12ish. Geeze, I wonder what happened...
That's just, like, my opinion, man.
