They're actually there to dull the pain of all the things you're forced to do to stall your inevitable death and make it less painful.

The 2.0 fresh start server launch was really good and I am having fun. It's the way the game should have launched in the first place, but there are no goon guilds and it's not a game you are going to enjoy much solo. Think of this thread as a relic to a magical time a year ago.

It could somehow become the best MMO on the market and still I doubt I'd come back because of how Trion has handled everything. Probably the worst PR I've seen in an MMO yet.

I think somebody posted many months ago that Trion had issues with unauthorized billing in RIFT. I didn't want to risk giving them another cent for this garbage, so I removed everything I could from the billing page.

For some reason I enjoyed Archeage's gliders more than regular flight in other MMOs. It was a lot of fun just finding the biggest climbable mountain and gliding over the zone.

It was definitely one of the highlights of the game.

Next sandbox game better have gliders and boats.

Figuring out how to drive your boat underwater and get stuck in a whirlpool of your own creation only to SHOOT OUT OF THE WATER LIKE A GODDAMN WHALE AND SLAM BACK DOWN ONTO THE SURFACE was a lot of fun. Also piracy and stealing fish.

WoW's flying mounts and Aion's wings that were on a timer immediately come to mind here.

And yeah, give me a new MMO with player housing, boats, and gliders and I'll be happy.

It's not new, and there's no gliders, but have you ever played Ultima Online? It's getting a new expansion soon

We'd better stop talking about the things that were fun in this game. Next thing you know some of the weaker willed goons will be reinstalling. I'll just hope some other game comes along that takes the good parts of ArcheAge and builds on it, and isn't run by some dipshit company like Trion.

IMO there is nothing wrong with playing for free for a few hours to wring whatever fun out of the game that you can. It only becomes retarded if you start spending money on it again.

They'd have to remove the subscription requirement for owning land for it to even be worth reinstalling. I don't foresee them ever doing that.
