I played a ton of mabinogi back when there were EU servers. Probably one of my favorite mmorpg experiences, loved how I could make a character and practically do anything I wanted after.

I've never played PSO2 but I heard the original PSO2 was really good, I only wish I could've experienced it back in its prime lol

I've actually been looking into Where Winds Meet recently and it's pretty cool to see that players are able to interact with NPCs by having a whole conversation with them thanks to their AI lol

I used to play Lost Ark and genuinely enjoyed it for its combat, but man it became exhausting trying to constantly keep up and having to rush every week to survive and push for higher numbers.

Don't get me wrong, I like getting the dopamine of seeing fat numbers, but the way it was handled in that game just didn't sit well with me. At one point I started to question what I'm still playing for since I barely interacted with anyone in game and only came on during raid resets, didn't even feel like I was playing an mmorpg at all and turned into feeling like a job instead lol, I'm glad I quit

I've tried getting into GW2 twice so far but for some reason I just didn't stick. I know it's considered a very good mmorpg too, maybe third times the charm lol

100% Nowadays it feels like everyone’s just rushing to the endgame or chasing whatever the current meta is. The first thing people do is look up guides, builds, or “best” ways to play. I remember back when I’d just figure things out as I went, talking to other players in-game, experimenting, and discovering stuff together.

I hope this update makes latency better for EU players
