I disagree emphatically. It would be very relieving to finally let the current code die an honorable death and have it rest in peace, rather than having it continue its zombie-like existence. :)



Let it go out with a bang! At world end give us something that will immortalize the time we spent on this version for the rest of our lives, please?

Hmmm... Legends say before the Gods rose to the stars they cast their mortal items to the world. Can a lucky adventurer find their bounty? What weapon or armor did they wear? Will it sway entire wars? :lol:

At first I was afraid, but I see such a determination in Loftar and Jorb, such a vision, such powerfull creative vibes, that I changed my mind to : go for it, ready for the old world to end, ready for a wild new experiment !

I like the idea of a single player MMO, and haven is definitely an interesting platform for it, I just know it probably will result in a lower population because of the difficulties of playing with friends.

I'm not sure about that. I've met lots of hermits while exploring, some very developed, and when I invited them to join my village nearly all of them refused saying they liked playing alone. And if this feature makes raider alt population lower that's even another incentive for this kind of people to keep playing. It might mean lower interaction, but I'm not sure about lower population.

I don't think most players realise just how many hermits and small groups of 2/3 players there really are, it's only when you go out and meet and greet that you become aware, I don't think it means less interaction, they may not want to join villages but they all trade and are mostly up for friendly chit-chat.

Hermit life is ideal for ppl with a busy rl, it provides interaction whilst being less demanding socially than village life and sooo many ppl don't want to specialize - they enjoy the freedom that comes with hermitting and the only pressure of obligation is to yourself.

My only problem with hermitting is the amount of work involved if you want to be developed, I doubt I'd do it for another world, well maybe to start with in 'hafen' seeing as how they have now removed the ability to start with friends, lol, which I've said before I'm not against. :)
