Wintermute.5408 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 I've dropped out of the game about 3 years ago i think? No specific reason - just kinda happened. Was mostly doing openworld stuff and fractals, aiming to take a shot at raids at some point. How's the game nowadays? Playerbase still active? Necromancers still playable? How much of a living world season did I miss? Gonna need to purchase those now, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyrateSilly.4710 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 There are tons of people still in and tons of new players. BUT for you to decide if it is right for YOU to play again then just jump back in and go for it. A few changes in the last 3 years ... so just try it for yourself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 You missed possibly the Path of Fire expansion You missed Living Story 4 You missed the first half of LS5 All but the latest episode will need purchasing Still a large population and all classes are playable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomos.7593 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Open world PvE and fractal are both still very active and the player base is active in these. Reaper necromancers are great in the open world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mortifera.6138 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Not worth paying for LS imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infusion.7149 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Contrary to the doomsday threads, an expansion has been announced and it is hitting Steam soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the same reaction when I returned to the game a couple months ago :D So nice! There have been a lot of criticism of the way they are selling templates though, and I can understand. But an extra gear template and 2 extra build templates on each of my character is still better than 1 :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LW, you missed the entire LWS4, which is 6 episodes/maps. The maps are okay. Some are good, but some are very bad. The story is meh. Then we have 3 maps from LWS5, Ice Brood Saga. I think the first two maps are good with the last one being like Dragon Stand, without all what made Dragon Stand work. Story is not good. Playerbase is active, but getting smaller by the day. Necromancers are strong in OW. Usable in fractals/raids but not ideal. If you have PoF it is free to access (will need to buy gems with gold or money to access LW you missed) it is worth coming back. If you do not have PoF, the new elites alone are worth the game price. If story was your thing, it is not worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowStringing.7240 Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 game is great worth playing.. but the quality of servers and the lags r very bad and can make you think twice if game worthy to consider even starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreamy Lu.3865 Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 In the end, as said by someone before already, it's really a matter of personal preferences and tastes. The main characteristic of that game is to put together so many different types of players! It's due to its enormous content together with the fact that even one specific activity can be played with different approaches and strategies. Main facts are: - Content is bigger than before (tons of adds). - Original content has massively changed (tons of modifications and updates and balancing and improvement....). Out of all that, I believe that OP would most certainly find something to enjoy. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
