I have recently come back to proselytize my cRPG end times prophecy, on the forum and discord.
cRPG MUST be wiped. chadz and cmp promising to never wipe cRPG again locked it into this eternally stagnant, swampy, slowly putrying mess. cRPG's natural cycle is to be wiped every now and again, another turn of the cycle is long due by now. Went looking for some of the stuff from the last wipe, here are some of my quotes from fucking
2012, I still believe they are accurate today. Many others believed the same thing.
The more moaning and gnashing of teeth I hear in relation to this potential wipe thing the more I hope it's not just a classic cmp troll. All these idiotic whiners that have never been through a wipe b4 crying "mod is ded! mod is ded!". If the grind was the only reason you played in the first place, good fucking riddance.
In any case, shades of past wipes... where the same whining was going on...funny how the most vociferous whiners back then are the same ones who eventually slunk back in to pollute the forums and the servers with their bullshit.
The ones who barely or don't read the forums at all, who will just quit outright without making a ridiculous dramafest, those are the ones devs should be worried about, if they even give a shit in the first place how many people play their mod, which they have already said many times they don't.
Oh you mean YOU were only playing for 2 months before the wipe? Fuck, of course the entire game revolves around your experiences. How old was the oldest character when the previous wipes happened? As far as I remember there have been 2 full wipes and 1 partial wipe (heirloom/gen adjustement) already, not counting the very first one when the 30 man server that had to be reset every hour or so got changed.
And everytime the whine and the "mod is ded!" and the "OMG I'm QUITTING IF THIS HAPPENS", like clockwork, and everytime the mod got more players and ended up healthier because of them.
This is a fucking game, you "earned" nothing but numbers and pixels. If you didn't have any fun doing it and approached it like a second job, that's your fucking problem. The only thing you were offered and deserved was having fun while playing a free mod. All the time you "invested" and "worked" at grinding was "wasted" anyways, because you were using it to play a fucking game.
You can have as many gay little internal polls as you want, they are badly biased by the simple fact that the only people still on the forums and discord are either people still playing or forum whores who stick around to "play" the forums. And even then almost half were pro-wipe! Imagine all the players who played cRPG at some point and don't anymore, or who don't read the forums anymore, or who never fucking did in the first place. PEASANT WARS NOW! The cRPG fields must be periodically watered with the blood of the high leveled and the fragments of looms! Only through this sacrifice will life bloom anew! DOOM!
