i still contemplate coming back. i just cant stomach the crap gfx any more.
for a while, I kept coming back, getting villas and then quitting, only to lose all my crap in the chests. lol. I gave up for good like a year or two ago.
i really just wish they'd redo the engine to bring it up to par with today's standards, and keep it open world. I love the open world with static and random instances. That is really what kept this game alive for me for so long. I cant speak for anyone else, but I thought it was awesome that i could run from one end of the island to the other. This game gave me the opportunity to be an explorer. After 12-13 years, I think it gave us a good run. Now, I just want a new island. They had the original storyline. There's no reason they couldn't have made a prequel back in the days of thorsten and elyssia.
IE - Asheron's call 1, with new gfx, open world, scalability for long term server mergers (for population control), etc.

Yeah, I still rock out with Asheron's Call - who cares if we have less pixel count than Spongebob.
