I have played Allods for over a year now, every day. I played before that, but not as steadily as the last year.
I was really looking forward to the 6.0.0 patch and in the end, it made me decide to quit.
I spent, before the patch, a lot of money on amalgams catalysts and stuff like that. To upgrade my gears, to get better glyphs. I stopped doing that when the details of the patch became clear, but all in all, it was a fair amount. That was completely my own choice, I know that.
Then patch 6 came out and I got a measly 1 gold and a bit compensating for having useless gear and glyphs. On top of that, on my second account all my characters are wiped and my crystals are gone. My lvl55 archer is on an Umoir allod with her HP halved because the glyphs bought in the Pearl Ring are gone.
Getting new glyphs does not only require endless farming (if you can find a party) for the glyphs themselves, but also for the money to use them. For the money to upgrade gears. Endless farming is something that I simply cannot do due to physical limitations. In short: even though I am a PvE player, this is no fun.Astral runs are rare for people with my basic lvl65 gears.
All in all, the fun is gone. If I want a daily boring grind of the same thing over and over again, I might as well work on an assembly line. I hope you all have fun because that is, after all, the purpose of a game. I don't, so I quit.
Tnx to all the players who I met and played with in the last year. I did have fun, and now it's over.
