Bought it, played it the 1st month and cancelled the sub.
It's not that it's a bad game, it's just missing something.... and I've been racking my brain to figure out what that something was. After playing it for a month, I went back and played the heck out of Skyrim.
I played the first two months. I was pretty happy with the game at first. I like doing dungeons, I like crafting, I like to grind. But I'm not that into exploiting every little part of the game.
I got stuck at the Vr 6-7 range I think, just too few dungeons, I had basicly played the game almost two times over to get to VR6-7 and I was still doing the same dungeons as back in Vr1-2.
The reason I quit was that Vr8-10 was beeing exploited, so it wasn't too motivating to get there. Dungeon loot wasn't that impressive. I was only using it because I was stubborn. The best gear was world drop greens that you upgraded.. Meh.
Crafting was great to begin with, but there was no skill to it, it just required some clicking and hardest part was probably not to delete the items you had saved up to research, when my research started to take a week+ I moved the stuff to a mule. I had hoped there would be more challenge collecting the research items but you could just ask someone to duplicate it for you.
Crafting resources were exploited, both duping, and players created multiple characters to recive mail bags with resources. I didn't feel like doing neither.
Crafted items weren't that good either.
At the end of the day, I didn't look forward to play Vr8-10 with just 3 dungeons that were explouted and people usually just ran one of them, and then have to do it all over again to get to VR12 quicly after. It seemed like a drag.
For me the game would have been better if it ended at 50, and we would have real endgame, like new dungeons, not just recycled stuff.
Very often when I did the Vr5 dungeons I was told to exploit the boss, like stand far away from him outside his room and he wouldn't fight back and so on.
I currently don't play any mmorpgs, I'm on a break untill I find a gem.
Also the economy was a little so,so. At the time I left, the trade guilds I had joined at launch had like 20-30 players active in them, down from 200-300. So I had to put a lot of work into getting new guilds. That felt like a chore just to sell some stuff.

I might go back someday, once they stop wasting new content on those who pretend work is play, but want play to be work.
To dream, perhaps to be.
I just dropped my sub.
Was fun, but no resources and playing the same thing over and over again got real old.
Really the no resources was the end of it for me.
Being a member of 5 guilds was nice, but also confusing.....
I just started playing Skyrim again. I am having a much better time, loot I can use and resources for me to craft with...
