Im skeptical as fuuuuuuuuuuuck that OP is redryder gonna need more evidence. Forgive me for not being all nostalgic about your time but this game has a bad reputation when it comes to honest people.
Not nice. 9 years ago, I would have given you a warning for that ;)

Thanks for the breakdown Ryder! I still wish you were a GM again! -smiles- I'll try to look at it from the perspective that you've mentioned. I understand that things must evolve. However, I also understand the old mantra "if it isn't broke don't fix it!" -smiles- You are correct that Rohan's longevity is a testament to its quality especially in the game mechanics department. Insofar as a pure hardcore PVP MMO, it's still one of the best out there! Since leaving Rohan and coming back, I've played most of the other current flagship MMO's like: WOW, ESO, BDO, GW2, and Arch-Age (Relics of Hiram). However, the only two MMO's that are no installed on my desktop/laptop are Rohan and Star Trek Online. Neither are the most current games; however, something about both keeps me engaged. Again, it's good to see you back with the experience & perspective that you bring to the game! -cheers-! :)
Wow je bent Nederlands? Ik zou graag is willen overleggen met je over hoe het er terug in de tijd aan toe ging, misschien kan ik daar nog iets van leren. Ik speel dit spel al heel erg lang en heb erg mijn best gedaan om het te verbeteren, dit lukt alleen maar met mondjesmaat. In ieder geval leuk om je hier terug te zien na zo'n lange tijd!!
The most successful games (League of Legends, Fortnite etc.) Basically rely on F2P + skins2pay. You can play it at no cost and the only items that cost money are basically skins/emotes/apperances and so on these do not give direct advantages over another player but they do allow you to ''show off''. This concept is mostly combined with microtransactions (Fortnite) and you get a really profitable game.
I do however not think that this model will work for rohan since the main playerbase now consist for 80% of veterans and they have invested thousands of dollars into this game, switching to basically free2play for all items would mean most of them would quit.
