Man ... I'm (even more) depressed about the game now.


Here are the reasons why I feel like the game is about done, finished, over, "Jumped the shark" if you will.....


  1. Caylin is leaving ... gonna miss ya!

  2. The Village stuff was neat the first few days, but now it sucks.

  3. I've seen just about everything and done just about everything.

  4. I've been in JTL beta since the first day.

  5. Combat rebalance is still so far away.

  6. Smuggler revamp is even further.

Man .... I just don't know ..... I can barely get the drive to log in anymore.


Ok ... anyone else just plain bored?

Eh I wouldn't worry about me leaving too much. You will get another correspondent who I'm sure will do fine


I honestly tried out the village stuff on TC2, never bothered with it on live. It was a grind just as bad as any other so when I saw that old man appear near me whispering my name, I just walked on.

/hi5! That's the attitude! While Caylin has beena HUGE part of this community from the start we cannot let his leaving sink us into even more hopelesness. We need to reamin focused and keep our eyes on the prize. I'm sure Caylin would be HUGELY dissapointed if he left and the smuggler community went to pieces. Stay stong guys and gals.

Besides, if you're really that distraught, perhaps you need someone to talk to.

Try to get high with muon and fight Mawgax with downer. The muon can take away the lost of our leader, and Mawgax can release your stress


Or you can always try to talk to Dr. Phil

The question is not "What hope do we have now," its "What hope would we have if Caylin did'nt do anything for us?"


I think hes done more then a perfect job for us. I hate to see him leave.

Thanks to the many who gave me a ray of hope in my other thread.


I still feel like Luke felt in the Falcon after Ben died. "I can't believe he's gone." It'll sink in more when you're REALLY not on as our correspondant.


I'm gonna put some cash into my houses and take a break for a while. I've earned it.

While I'm confident that the smuggler community can find another good voice, it just doesn't seem thatanyone on the other end is listening. Caylin was as good as we could hope for, and he did his best.. but no one from SOE seemed to care. Bugs he loudly pointed out to them were ignored andimplemented anyway, design docs were never posted, issues were never addressed. Even in the rare chance where they did have an answer for him (spice nerf), they prohibited him from doing his job and informing the rest of us. So yes, we'll miss Caylin dearly, but I don't have any faith that they'll treat any new correspondent any better.


I think I'm with the "Conspiracy-Theory" crowd on this one now. We're too small a minority to be worth any attention, and the only way we'd earn any dev-time is if it's in another paid expansion. So I guess I'll wait for an announcement aboutthe "Scum and Villainry" expansion in 2005/2006?
