This should come to the surprise of no one, but...
In September, I allowed my last 6-month renewal to kick in, under the assumption that if I wasn't playing the game again by January, I was done.
And that's true. I'm done.
It was fun. I've been subscribed for more than 60 months, and played for at least 40 of them. Best MMO experience I've ever had. But I'm kind of
int he place where I just can't devote that kind of effort to a single experience that never changes. There's just nothing to keep me interested, with
all sorts of other shiny/new games kicking around, not to mention my new PS3 and the Steam Holiday sale that abused the heck out of my wallet.
Hasta, all.
We'll miss ya in-game, man.

Then the horns kicked in...
...and my shoes began to squeak.
new ps3?
is to be avoiding Need For Speed: Underground, is to be acquiring Need For Speed: Shift and/or Burnout Paradise for racing goodness.

I'm sad to see you go, but I understand why. Enjoy the other new shininess you have acquired.

Sorry to see you go.
I am considering letting my account lapse as well, as I just cannot find time to get online of late.

Whew. You had me worried for a bit, because Fox's MOTD had me worried was it just the game or had something pushed you to attempt to /ragequit from real
life. Glad to hear its just the game!
And Rev: Sorry to hear your probobly going too, but given the needs of your new Darkling its totally understandable!

Sad to see you go - both of you. Burn out or real-life concerns happen. And it -is- after all only a game.
I must admit to some burn out of my own at the moment. It's why I haven't been around quite as much of late. But it's not a "leaving the
game" moment. I think I'll explain that in a separate post.
