Ten years with mmo's
ONE EXPERIENCE:
They all gets bad over time.
reason Devs tend to get greedy and end up listening to all the whinners and their bad bad bad suggestions.
It must be time to end this sjit now and learn form the past. Look at UO, DaoC and SWG just to mention a few. They all tell the same story.
WOW is another story, still they broke it but since they were able to aim it so broad and so many parent is using it today as a cheap nanny, they makin big cash ona crap game. Great JoB Blizz
