Indeed,
What broke the game for me was that almost all the people I stayed in the game for, were exclusively playing
WoW, or had
WoW accounts and played both games.
Now some went back to
UO and stopped playing
WoW, but by that point I was settled in.
I reactivated Mina in
UO a couple of times but really had a totally dire time. Even with checking the boards for what was going on I couldnt get back into the community. After previous breaks I had got back into
UO with barely any trouble (after quitting SWG Seriya had the first 2 mina reports in her hand on day 1)
I miss the Cloaks, and a few of the trinsic posse, but I really cant say I miss the rest.
