Where did this game go so fucking wrong?
>>321527541
it was never good. you can't fix what isn't broken
It came out too late to beat this game.
Grand Exchange

This.
Also it looked like shit, WoW decimated it graphically.
>>321527541
Evolution of combat
Insane grind with very little reward for it
Playerbase getting worse and worse over time
Quests deciding to try and become serious, despite the writers just not being good enough to pull it offNot letting me quit yet

Their might be more, I haven't played since 2009
It's still got some things going for it.
It still feels like the only MMO (at least that I've seen) where you can genuinely dedicate yourself to a non-combatant role and not be missing 90% of the game.
Seconding grand exchange

Barrows update
When wilderness was fucked.
When Grand Exchange was included.
When the combat was fucked.
When the game was initially released. It is a shit game.

Yeah. That and the high risk/ high reward PVP made the game way better than it had any right to be. Need an mmo that takes those aspects and does everything else better.

>Quests deciding to try and become serious
Probably the worst. I can stand even EoC since runescape's game mechanics were never anything to write home about, but quests really need to keep themselves at half-serious.
Game is still great and I'm enjoying the raids. Git gud.
It started going downhill with the wildly being shutdown, trade limits and grand exchange.
The nail in its coffin however was Evolution of Combat. If I wanted to cycle through f1, f2 and f3 ad nauseam I would play WoW.
Also now they spam popups in game to use their cashshop

Maybe when they started adding dumb things in like fatigue or made it so that you couldn't duel wherever you wanted.
