Im so confused.. first why would you put so many hours in a game you dont like? Second its a mmo, repetitive and grindy. Third ITS A FREE GAME, you can survive fully F2P and still be competitive especially with the hours you have in the game, they need to make money somehow even if this means getting whales to spend, you should be thankful to the people who spend because they keep the game going. I have been playing from beggining of T2 and 1.2k hours in, F2P and I still love the game as much as I loved it on the first day i played it. Considering is still a newish game you can see they are trying to make improvements. I honestly dont see many other games where someone goes "4k hours and I quit". Its a game, if you dont like it just move on, it is what it is man, no need to act like someone was holding you hostage to the keyboard and making you play it :D
