The last time I've joined the server (in the middle of the summer, I guess), I survived around a week. I managed to collect around 150M with 3Ker transport, and something like a lightning struck me. I just asked myself, "And what's next?"
And I could not answer that question... I realized that I don't want to invest any more time in anything.
I don't want a battleship, battlecruiser, cruiser, or any other cap. I don't want to refresh any of my combat skills if I had any. I just don't find it fun at all.
Guess that's the main reason why players are not logging.
Now, I had several thoughts like: Alright, just gona make one cap ship, or a liner and have some soft RP, not going to play much, twice per week probably.
Then, I went here to forumlancer, and I have no idea, do I want to give another go on not. Probably not.
It's not like the mod is bad, nope, it's actually the best Freelancer mod. It keeps the original atmosphere of the Freelanced, which I just loved. Yeah, I guess that's the reason.
I loved version 4.85. The mod has progressed, I guess more than 10 years passed since 4.86 was introduced, which was already different. Now, Disco is way too different for me. But again, I'm not stating it's bad.
Just way too different for me, and perhaps for most of the players who left and didn't return.
There still will be a place in my heart for Freelancer, and for that great fun, we had in 4.85. Now, it's not touching my heart strong enough.
