I was done when they changed the spirit stones etc.

I don't mind to pay for a game, or hence a monthly subscription for that matter - I've payed it for other mmo's so that's not the issue.
The issue is when you have to spend 30-40 dollars / month to be just 'able' to play - and that's without counting in the extra's. I mean, lol, which genius came up with the idea to sell spirit stones for $'s, make it a core gameplay (i.e.: a must have item to actually play the game) and give them a fail-rate besides? Do you really think I throw 15-20 $ just to receive nothing in return? If I wanted to play the lottery, I'd just play that instead.

Mind you, the ROI of that is probably higher as well.
+1 for creativity, I'd say.


That, and I suppose I just generally grew bored of the endless grind, but that's another matter. Not like I've really logged in for anything else but chatter for the past couple of years, anyway.
