[Shinto]

I have tried to be as optimistic as possible about this game. I know that it is just starting and that it is incomplete. I know that every game has problems. Unfortunately, that does not change the fact that this game has problems that makes it not fun for me.

I am a crafter (supposedly a level 33 weaponsmith), and never intended to do adventuring for any extended period of time. My entire goal was to make weapons and sell them. I wanted to be known as the guy you could go to for an awesome sword. That will never happen with the game as it is. Drops are superior to crafted weapons in almost every case, and are far easier to get. I am now reduced to making enchanted horseshoes and pyrite forks. It takes me days to sell superior weapons, if I manage to sell them at all; I can't sell any uncommons. Flawless weapons used to sell well, but now I can't get Black Iron. Basically, my career has stopped short because I can't make anything worth buying.

I don't want to leave Vanguard. But I don't feel like logging in, either. I have gone days at a time without even logging in to check my mail. I have gained 2 levels in 3 weeks, and I don't feel inclined to try for more. I'm not really even sure why I still check the forums.

I can't see myself staying unless I get a real reason soon. I plan to cancel my sub and just let the time on it run out. I wish I could do otherwise, but I'll not waste cash on a game that I don't enjoy.
