I can relate to pretty much all of what Abysial is saying here. :)
Before i even knew there was an EMU project, I regularly drew parralels to EnB while trying satisfy my need to play MMO's -trying out pretty much every other game out there in the timespan, reminiscing the days of scouring the galaxy.
I played EnB from beta till 5 minutes past sunset (staring blankly at the screen and blinking connection icon) and loved every minute of it.
-Thats what the devs and gms and graphic... genies ... have given me back, and I am grateful for the opportunity :blush:
I am not very vocal by nature, not ingame -not in the forums. But I do read a lot, and some of the threads I come across (usually after a patch) sometimes make me cringe. It seems that some people have started taking all of this for granted, -speaking out like the devs and gms are employees of some big game developer company that we pay a monthly fee...
Well, before this rant gets out of hand, I just wanted to let you all know; There are lots of players out there singing your praises for what you did, and continue to do.
I count myself among them.
Keep up the good work!
