I keep playing because I enjoy backstabbing noobs. Spawning with 80 players on a map and doing what you can to make your animations glitch, having some easy backstabs on noobs, carrying a team or clutching a round are things I enjoy, basically I am a performance whore. Retiring, looms and levels just get in the way of that and I despise the lot of it. I also enjoy playing easy builds and currently OP weapons and trying to make them work. Having multiple high level characters and having access to an armoury with a great variety of looms are probably what kept me playing this last year. The mod has quite a lot of variety even if you play pretty much only melee like me. Although when you think about it, it is quite crazy that I regard switching from a Flamberge to a Great maul as a different experience.
Personal goal is to have fun. In order to do that, I cripple myself so that no matter how good I get there is always a challenge. (Hoplite spec, light armor, unorthodox weapon choices- Light Lance, Knife, cheap 1h axe)
TeamworkYou already achieved that.
And be the most painful thrower.
