Well, as some of you know, I was here from the uk launch, had a blast at first then watched the game slide ever downwards and at the time of the SOE handover, I was so disillusioned with the game I binned it off in disgust. What a great game, and what a great concept - completely shafted!
bah.
i returned just under two months ago, and I consider myself an extremely tough person to please - especially second time round, and especially as I was coming back expecting (at the very least) some wide ranging changes.
well, congrats - you did it, and I'm STILL here with my second month about to run out and I'm happy to let the sub roll into the third. Considering the wariness I felt coming back, experiencing a lot of problems that were still around from the first time I played and the fact that the live events were kind of stretched due to *everything* being down to one dude with what seems like fifty thousand arms - you did it. I'm still here, and I still want to play and see what happens next. Thats pretty awesome going, guys
with the re-emergence of the LESIG thing, thats an even better incentive to keep playing - and though since my return I'm still yet to see a single event going on, meh - I'm sure I'll run into one eventually so no big deal.
Anyway....that's about it. Congrats - if it was ever an objective to retain someone who experienced things first time round, left in disgust and came back expecting some pretty awesome stuff to keep them playing, you did it. This definitely bodes well for the games future, assuming someone, somewhere in SOE decides to allocate some money to marketing the game.
