Now SOE keeps a skeleton crew on the game to work out the mess Sigil created when they made and remade the game a half dozen times during beta.
when i played VG (again) for a month last year i saw something that i've not seen since meridian59, game staff actually doing random events.
i logged on my vulmane shaman, ambled around town when i saw a zombie gesturing, since i was a shaman, you know connection to the spirit world and all that, it looked funny so i said "Undead, must be purged!" and hit the cure disease button (i could've meant purged as in killed since it was a pvp server). the moment the spell was cast (great timing btw) the zombie turned into a beautiful woman who started thanking me, we had a short conversation and she gave me 5 gifts from the crimson fellowship as a reward and disappeared.

unfortunately i played alone and for me people are an important factor of what makes the game fun or not. since no rl buddies wanted to play vg and the server population was quite low i quit a few weeks later, but i'm sure that i'll play it again one day. the landmass is huge and there are dungeons everywhere with stuff to do and many named mobs and they perfectly fit into the environment. the main cities are gigantic, finding an entrace alone took a while.
really nice game, but unfortunately not many players.

i doubt vg will be shut down, weren't there talks about an expansion last year?

The expansion was put on hold in favor of opening the new newbie trial island, working on raid content, and dealing with the massive amounts of technical issues the game had.

I cancelled because I suddenly woke up and realised that I had been playing MMO's since 96 with just about no pause ..
It really is comparable to substance abuse and addiction ..

Bought TSO a few weeks ago after leaving a couple months into RoK, found out the game still sucked and cancelled my subscription once more.

Too many classes, none of which are truly unique. Terrible balancing issues, upgradeable spells (Absolute worst idea ever, imo. That's what gear/aa's are supposed to be for), idiotic class gear, constant nerfs to the classes I played, and the whole game just feels like an endless grind.

Combine that with absolutely no groups up until your high 70's with soloable content that's about as interesting and fun as putting a nail through your foot and you've got EQ2 in a hand-basket.

Oh, and one of my favorite parts. TREASURED chests off named mobs. If it's a heroic instance, the named should always drop an exquisite.

The game is visually beautiful, and I will admit that I thought the majority of the TSO group content was well thought-out and executed. Too bad no groups were ever looking for a necro after Sony dildo-fucked us into obscurity.

I give up on this game, but most of all, its company.

See you all on Runes of Magic, where I don't have to pay anything to have the devs fuck up my experience.

Oh, and thank god for BioWare. Star Wars: The Old Republic | Game Overview
