    i started playing this game over 10 years ago

    im sure most of you werent here back when open beta started, but this was a totally different game back then. if you wanted something, you had to work for it. seeing someone in graham armor back then was like.....WOW! WHATS THAT ARMOUR? lol but now? youre a dumbass pussy if youre caught wearing graham armour. item drop rates and forging rates were low back then. even during their "forging" events

    before epic weapons and whatever else weapons were released, the servers were balanced. except for templars double buffing with a staff and then equipping a mace. that doesnt work anymore after almost 2 years of people complaining that templars were way over powered. epic weapons or whatever theyre called now, seriously threw things off. afterwards, they couldnt balance one server without throwing off another server severely.

    as much as id love to relive rohans golden era, i know that will never happen. i can honestly say, despite wanting to, i havent touched this game in years because of how bad ynk fucκed up with pay-2-win weapons :/ that was just as bad as fallout 76's cash grab at microtransactions. if ynk really wants to bring a lot of players back, id start figuring out a way to make things like they used to be. like.....it was rare to see someone with a lvl 6 skill and there was no way to keep a party going without everyone paying 100% attention to the game. if one person died in a party, the whole party usually would too.

    skill stones had a lower success rate back then too. you could use 10 skill stones and fail every time back then. i could live with failing skill stones that many times, but epic weapons? pfff....i actually had several chances to buy those weapons but i hated them so much that i refused to touch them and relied on skill like almost every player did before epics.

    btw, fucκ your forums auto block on explicit words, it doesnt work so well when i throw in some greek letters.

    Time to disect this one step at a time as somebody who was here for open beta. Nostalgia aside some of this stuff is quite wrong.

    This is just wrong, the game was not balanced just because everyone had sub 20k hp. The pre +18 era was actually the most balanced period of rohan and anyone who says otherwise is a retard(mafia).

    It was not rare to see somebody with lvl 6s in 2008 people literally made it a business out of selling tradable SES one of those people being me. Also we have something called indun which has been ****ting out SES stones since late 2009 I still dont even understand this argument like ofc there will be more ppl with all skills lvl 6 the game is almost 11 years old. Like the game has its problems but these are just hurr durr the game isnt the same as it was almost 11 years ago.

    honestly, with how toxic things have become lately, im not surprised by all the negative comments from (former) fellow players. i didnt say anything like that to any of you, but alright. i guess it comes natural to assholes. ~shrugs~ i gave my opinion about how the game turned out, that was all.

    A little off topic but when you played back then, was there a mighty Dekan called LexusGS or Latvala?
