Sacred Haven of Debauchery

It did go downhill over time, yes. But games like Perfect World were like that from the very beginning.

That's right, from the VERY BEGINNING, only hardcore players could play Perfect World because there was nothing but mob grinding, it was called Open Beta Testing. Now it's a pretty decent MMORPG, focused on PvP.
If a dagger in Lineage has 3 skills, that speaks to the lack of creativity of the developers.

Vissy doesn't drink fresh stuff.

Thanks for your concern ^_^
