Not only secret world but every game that is badly optimized i quit in the first month

didnt quit, its like reading a good book

I just quit because I have played too much and NM farming is becoming soo boring already... also because they charged me 15 euros for this new month when I didn't even allow them which... pissed me off real bad :p

End game is just fusang - grab black tokens, then spend ur day doing stonehenge group and NM/SH farm... boring after one week and a half of just that ^^

Edit: and also the bugs like ... losing SP randomly, bugged quests, imbalance, bugged instances bosses... I know it is still very young but GM no being able to help with bugged intance was just very very annoying !

I am not sure yet, I ll  quite TSW after   ccp done World Of Darkness ...

in any case, if  I ever  leave awesome mmorpg TSW I ll change my avatar

did you try the lairs, getting the lair puzzle pieces and sumoning lair bosses? getting the regional puzzle pieces from lais bosses and sumoning a regional boss.

also on the 28th in this month, there is going to be lair quests and unique raid puzzles from regional bosses... and rocket launchers!

As soon as I can get GW2 downloaded and running (crossing fingers) I cannot wait to cancel my sub to TSW.

I have never been so frustrated with an MMO.  Mashing the same buttons over and over again just isn't my style of play and I readily admit it.  Maybe if there were a variety of buttons to mash, I could sustain the banality of it.   Admittedly I guess I am not very good at the game.  I have never died so many times in any other MMO, so it's got to be me, but that in itself is enough to say enough.   I like the atmosphere,  I like that it isn't your every day dungeons and dragons MMO.  But to work your arse off trying your best to kill mobs that have double your HP is just too frigging hard to do day after day.   I do admit that I have been hanging in there, playing the game for something to do waiting for GW2.  So that part is my fault.  Addcited gamer here.  But I am definitely done with TSW, no matter what. 

I haven't quit yet and probably never really will being a lifer, but right now I am finding GW2 to be more enjoyable. TSW's endgame is not really that great and the NM dungeon grind is a very poor fitting for the game. The PvP leaves something to be desired as well; Fusang is decent but can't compare to the scope of WvW. Also please don't take me for a GW2 fanboy, I gots me a lifetime for TSW and I could not stand GW1, but the endgame gear grind is complete letdown. I guess I'm not sure what kind of endgame I was expecting, but it was not the gear grind forumla.

Really it's the content updates that will keep me coming back to TSW. But I don't see TSW being anything other than a niche game with a small subscriber base.

THey really do need to add a couple/few more slots that are not soley for auxiliary weapons.

Quite humorous, since GW2's combat system is the greater key mashing fest.

As for the topic, I've not quit and neither have any of my friends.   Looking forward to the update this week, and am currrently playing it alongside GW2.

My brother and I cancelled our accounts today.

Primary reason? Broken quests, broken game mechanics, frequent lockups and other graphic/game issues.

Skils that are totally useless.  Elite skills that are totally useless.  In fact, for all the vaunted "unlimited" choices, in reality there are only a few skills that matter and, in the end, you have to have those skills to survive.  For example, since my brother and I frequently ran together, I created a Blood/Chaos build for healing and some DPS while he went Tank/DPS with his character.  However, whenever we hit a "solo" dungeon, he would usually breeze right through it while I usually died.  And do you know what kind of advice I received?  "Learn different skills and/or weapons and you can solo no problem".

Of course I could do that.  But that means is that you can't "think outside the box" and play the game.  Once again you are forced to pick skills that you would not normally use just to complete the content.  So much for diversity.

This is the third Funcom game that I've purchased and probably the last.  I think it is a good thing that they are dropping out of the MMORP genre, since none of their efforts have been worth playing.   My brother and I had high hopes for this game, but it only took us four months to realize our error.

I would have posted this on the official Forum, but I was banned for 6 months for making negative comments about the game.  If the game was better maybe there wouldn't be so many negative posts.

Thats a good way man. Never ever try to work on your deck, or even admit, that you maybe picked the wrong bunch of skills for yours. The f... game is to blame. Absolutely correct. And also you did very well in rejecting any advice. Brilliant. You dont make faults, games do!

And to your last paragraph. You played this game now for 4 months (!) and realise, that it is crap? Wow, thats what i call "slow to catch on".

Seriously, whats wrong if you stop playing a game after 4 months and have to admit, that youre burned out, but the game was ok. No, it is always the "absolute crap game" afterwards.

I just don't understand this.  Certain mobs require different tactics.  Some you can horde in circles and burn them all down with ease.  Others require specific debuffs to kill easier, not applying an impair(or you get impaired as well) etc.

If you have one build for this game, you are not playing correctly.  I hate to say it, but thats the truth.  This isn't a one-trick pony.  The whole games lore is based on that fact that you can adapt.  Adapt then.  They give you skills to utilize, sure no doubt some are absolutely useless.  Hell, even some have very little purpose other than making specific mobs easier. (Root for example is needed and elemental is the only way to effectively apply it against a few mobs)

Thinking outside the box is what this game is all about.  I'm a shotgun/chaos tank.  I tank NMs with a unique build that works perfectly for everything so far(tanked first 5 so far- minues last boss on one where I go heal/tank)
