I am elighted at a real change, and just how everything is being handled period. Even to the point of how the announcements are worded, with a abit of roleplay involved.. the Blight Server story was wonderful!
I may be speaking too soon, but I can see a glimse of new life in the game. Not just updates, but almost as if a re-release.
I am hoping the goodness is not spoiled or lost, as I believe the current owners have the most clear vision since David Allen was in charge, now that is a long long time .
I believe everything will come together, so long as nothing disasturous happens, just by whats happened already. The first updates in a year, some needed fixes that have been neglected since release, and the spark of new content.
What I am hoping is true, is that the "expansion pack" will really become a real thing, and by the new owners actions and what they have done so far... I believe the game will have many of its broken and missing pieces found and put together.
I have to say.. I am wondering if this company was one of the vast groups of players that were serious in the fact that if they opportunity came to them, they would buy it themselves and work the game. Only because of the forums posts, and manner that they have conducted themselves so far seems only as if they must have been true Istarians.
I however don't think I will becoming back as the once vibrant druid I always was, but instead will start from the beginning all over.
I hope I am not speaking too soon, I'm just excited
