I don't mean this to be a silly or insulting question. I love UO and miss it very much at times...at least I miss the game I played a few years ago. My question is meant sincerely as a guide to help me decide if it's worth my time/money to return. Is the game still viable?
I likely wouldn't be returning as a hardcore player for some time, if ever...more recreational a few times a week, maybe a half hour at a time. I don't mind to pay...I tried to fill in some of my gaming yerning with some free Facebooks such as Farmville and Kingdoms of Camelot, but they just don't measure up to the game I grew up with in UO.
I'm not even sure what kind of answers I'm looking for here, as I'm sure that everyone still playing adores it as I used to. I guess I really left the last time, as well as the time before that, for primarily monetary reasons. Sometimes $120 a year seems like so much to be "wasting" on a game...at others it seems like nothing at all.
I stopped playing most recently shortly after they started the raids in Cove(and a couple of other cities) where you had some of those tameable black warhorses (not sure of their exact name).
So any feedback anyone can offer as far as how the game has changed in the past two or three years, if you still find the game enjoyable, if the game still seems viable in the sense of that it won't shut down in the near future, etc. Any of that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
