Recently, there has been a little hype online about people returning to Archeage so I thought I check here and see if any Pantheon people were playing. Apparently it's not nearly as pay to win as it became when Trion decided to ruin it not long after launch (which was the last time I played) and the state of the gameplay is better than it's been in a long time.
So, in the hopes it will occupy some time until Pantheon launches a couple friends and I have decided to check it out. Playing pretty casually as a dwarf named Knewly.
Feel free to drop me a message in game if you decide to check it out. /wave
I tried it back at launch but could never develop a taste for it. I did get a kick out of the justice system though. While I wasn't a huge fan of the game itself, I did find myself having a laugh in the courtroom quite often. So while I won't be making a return, I hope you can find a crew to run with. Have fun and try to stay out of court. ;)
I loved a lot of what ArcheAge did, especially early on. But, on our server at least, most of the hardcore PvPers on our side decided to reroll characters on the opposing side and formed a huge superguild with them and owned the server for a while. Then they got bored and left and the server was dead and became boring. I also got really tired of the pay to win, as that was the only way to do really well in PvP (I did well without it against a lot, but when you went up against someone who had the power level was totally obvious).
Since then I've refused to entertain any game that has a pay to win strategy.
I hear you, Kelenin. I feel exactly the same way. I blocked anything to do with AA because of the pay to win issues Trion implemented. Buuut they are gone now and (from what I've read) the pay to win aspect of it is gone. I dunno for sure tough. I dunno - I have always felt that the game had such potential it was a shame what happened to it... and I'm so mmo starved lol I decided to give it another shot. Really I just want Pantheon to release. =)
That's what I thought - I am all in on Pantheon once it arrives buuuuut..... it's gonna be a long while - I need something to occupy my time so I've been trying them all again. Confirmed what I already knew - there are no good MMOs anymore and haven't been in a loooong time. Pantheon can't come soon enough.

I've fiddled around on that a bit but there's not a huge amount of people around usually. It's unfortunate but the folks getting it up and running seem to be doing a decent job on it so far. So if anyone tries, try to drag a few more along with ya for fun. :)
