Starting with countless of others on day 1, exploring, leveling and sharing the enjoyment and discoveries with eachother. Spending hours and hours on brainstorming, discovering different things and combinations, and taking deep dives into min-maxing, even the smallest thing. Joining up with others to conquer dungeons and raids, basking in the glory of unthinkable team and solo achievements.

Doing hilarious things together, like spreading a DoT debuff throughout the whole server, which killed everyone who wasn't near another character, which normally shouldn't be possible to even maintain, plague everyone for days, until the servers got restarted

Having met countless people and interacting with them, whom I would've never even been able to, just to become good friends over time, in and out of the game. Grinding the content, while first a priority, quickly got overtaken by spending time with them.
Things that have gotten suggested while being on Dungeon Cooldowns on all characters, like having things like, online minigolf tournaments across different servers and people with the weirdest time differences ever, meet up and have a great time together.

Nothing lasts forever, and it's a good thing. Having difficulties accepting those changes is natural, especially if they are of importance to one. Saying goodbye to friends with whom you've gone through the wide array of emotions together is never easy, but things happen, and we try to accept and adjust.
As more and more time passes, you realize that the game you once cherished changed, actually by a lot. Experiencing the sheer amount of P2W additions and increase of power creep with each update becomes, at some point, unreasonable.

The game went through a lot of changes after a year of the release; with each update, things got worse and worse. The player base shrunk, and, even with the maximum possible in-game gold and resources, it was not feasible to continue. Having incompetent devs and publishers doesn't help either. New and different successors of the original Title, deleting countless of accounts in the process of a publisher change, was just another sign of abandonment.

The new AK title, while sharing the name, is everything that is bad with today's bigger gaming companies.
But overall, did we have a good time - I don't know; what do you think?
