  1. I like most hope for a balance. When that is not always achieved I move on to something else. I do not care for the depth and general pain  of fishing after it was updated even tho I used to enjoy it a great deal. so I do not do it anymore. Yes it is now deep and challenging, for me it also misses most of the fun factor it used to have.  There are other Wurm activity's I just do not care for , that is ok, plenty of other things for me to do even after a decade + here

    Hello Cecci, how are you doing ,? I hope you are all good. 

     

    I am in my 52nd year, and I think I am a bit too old to be playing an MMO. 

    You influenced my Wurm world early on with your example of being a fine ws and helping people, I will always appreciate that. At 60 I think the ties to old friends in Wurm mean more than ever for me. Not too old yet.


  3. I have been around since crooked houses and we where green people standing on horses. Wurm remains beautiful to me. The freedom to pursue any interest  along with the most important part, social is what keeps me coming back year after year. By now i have friends I have played with over a decade. We have been there through birth life and death for each other. This is a big part of the Wurm magic for me. We may drift to other servers, vanish to rl for a year or three but so many find their way back, it is always wonderful to see old friends and faces. 


  4. I think the balance of archeology is great, on the other hand I loath the new fishing, way too much hassle. I loved Tich dearly, know this was her baby but I have barely touched it since the change. I think this one missed the mark  on balance.

    I remember once upon a time people use to charge a flat fee for the QL imp, and a conditional flat fee if they turn the item rare/increase the rarity. 

    I havent seen this in a long time, but i remember it use to be really common to see that rare roll clause on improving posts.

     

     

    I remember this also , not all impers did it but some did. It was also discussed up front, no surprises. I have not seen this in practice for years, nor have I ever done it myself. 


  6.  I have no interest in starting grinds all over again, been there and done that once, that is enough. I play with the same friends I have known for years. I have no interest in losing that either. A well established deed with good supply of mats on hand. I have no reason to go to the new servers. 


  7. I see the lower participation as due to both time zones and lower overall attendance.  While having multiple impalongs  throughout the year can be fun and  easier it also reduces overall attendance.  I see the pvp games as a bragging rights/fun  thing more than sliver making thing , just my personal opinion. 


  8. hmm this one is tough for me. I loved the previous system even tho it did lack some depth.  I held Tich in extremely high regard and appreciate her work tremendously.  All of that said I do not enjoy our fishing system much now. I think it has a tad bit too much depth. I will have to say "Uncool" .


  9. Nope, it is a hard  grind we know that ,  I know it better than some, did it to 91 on one toon, doing it again on another. I would not change a thing. While i am much slower with it the second time it is still worth every minuscule gain.  I don't think ws on easy mode would be anywhere near as much of an accomplishment.


  10. As an older -payer(9 ish years) that has lived on several servers I have watched the shiny come in a few times. Since I have  never been interested  in the shiny my views are probably myopic. Whenever we get new toys  I watch everyone rush to explore it, I miss friends and allies yet know they will come back eventually. There is a natural attrition rate then things settle down. Even with so many enjoying the shiny from  my current home server Release I see new names. There is an ebb and flow to Wurm.

      I sit back and wait for the tide to change
