Here are some of my pet peeves...
- Stuns (+ spinning around after a stun)
- Fizzles
- Resists
- Melee misses
- Buff stacking (lack of)
- Immune mobs (slows, snares etc)
- Immune zones (Call of the Hero)
- Zoning (another time sink)
- Low population (nobody to group with)
- Useless newbie areas (Freeport, Qeynos etc)
- Raids
- Server merges
- Log-in issues
- Maintenance
- Dev communication
- No official data parser
- Daybreak Cash (non-transferable, non-refundable, non-giftable, no PP, krono, expansions)
- Mercs (more automation)
- Boxxing (anti-social)
- /pick
- Instanced zones
- Quests
- RP issues (no gender specific traits or gender specific loot)
- Consistency issues / political correctness (small females are as strong as their bigger male counterparts)
- No official or permanently Classic servers (Classic, Classic + Kunark)
- Bazaar (I used to love trading in the West Commonlands - the bazaar automates everything making us less social)
- Find (makes us stupid and less social)
- F2P (we should live in a world where everybody can easily afford the sub if they want to play)
- Pay to win (the richest have more fun in Norrath with their real world $)
- A constantly evolving and expanding world owned an operated by people who don't even play it solely for profit (unusustainable, impractical, selfish, wasteful, doomed to fail in the long term)
Here are some things I like...
- Runs on old hardware
- Uses very little bandwidth
- Nostalgia (magical first experience)
- Progression servers (as long as they're time locked rather than unlocked by uber guilds)
- Camping something and finally getting it
- Character development (increase in power and utility)
- Escapism (in theory become an immortal hero in charge of your own destiny instead of being a mortal loser controlled by other mortal losers)
- Dinging and buying new spells
- The people who know a lot about the game (I respect that)
- Old world zones
- The friendly helpful people I've spoken to and grouped with over the years
