Yes. My company runs premades quite often but I prefer to queue solo. Running in premades gets boring. It’s actually pretty fun battling against them.
Totally agree

Ok, so bringing this back around to the OP…what is driving people away
Pre-mades with friends for an MMO are boring to one persons view and the solution you propose is don’t play an MMO with your friends?!
How is that not partly the fault of the game design? Pairing teams with the similar number of kills in PvP would be a great start to not make it boring. The game does NOT do that.
An MMO only gets so many chances to pull players in to it and make it a virtual home. Maybe AGS can address some of what the player base wants to see; however from what I have seen on the roadmap, not only is AGS not on the same page as the player base for what they want, I am not sure they are even reading the same book.

Mounts are very necessary if for nothing else than messing around doing races or going out as a pack and having one friend get dismounted by an arrow from a pvp players in the bushes. Besides leveling mounts would just be fun for the fun of it.
lack of end game. same as the first exodus.

If mounts come out as another skill system that I have to grind in order to use them I will most certainly quit the game. There is plenty of grind to it already.

Most of the player base are adults who can’t play for 8hrs a day Everything takes too long to do, You spend a couple weeks with the few hours getting ready for Mutations get yourself to 200 Dex 200 Strength 100 Con get all the right Ward Gear put some Opals in the gear only to not finish the Expedition at an acceptable time because you got team mates that spend 8hrs a day not doing shit and if you leave because their damage is dogshit you end up reported for ruining their experience.
The majority of the people who play PvE content are trash at the game and it seems all the supposed “top” Companies are just exploit abusers in pvp making that not fun at all.

Would have been a shorter thread to ask what is keeping players playing?
The #1 answer is the absence of another modern MMO with large-scale combat, for now.

I level’d to 60 and really enjoyed it .
Got some ward gear and did some sands content .
I stopped playing when I relised I was never really going to be able to craft some good endgame gear .
I stopped playing because I had to wait 30 minutes in a lobby to do a single run of genesis ( my preferred expedition) .
I can only do so many chest runs .
Please make it easier to craft 590+ gear , thanks.

Crafting being RNG reliant and expensive.
A lot of maps are at a standstill because of the war changes, making it easier for super-companies to take over and underdogs at the mercy of larger companies. (People want to be on the winning side, so any decent players from smaller usually join the larger companies, which just worsens this issue.)
Having to wait a full year for new content that can be finished in a matter of days playing casually.
Mutations just aren’t worth the effort anymore.
Timers, slow spawns, war logging which is a problem of design. It’s a beautiful, but disjointed untuned mess. They seriously need to decide what they want to be, and find someone with a vision to make it happen.
So much potential, but it really feels like they did things in 5 different buildings without knowing what others were doing, then mashed them together without a plan.
I would love to see you quit the game over having to put effort in to ride a mount. Making fun of you for being lazy aside, I really hope theres some grind to having good mounts even if its cosmetics. UO did it well, it took X skill to tame different animals and X skill to ride them… So you could make money selling high level stuff to people like Orluk who refuses to put in any effort. Win-Win for everyone.

There is nothing to do in this game that is worth logging in once u are capped all skills and coins/shards that you cant spent… there is no pvp and endgame, only returning and recycled content. Lack of performance, features and committment by ags… there is no live service game model…. They seem not to play the game themselves which i understand that there is a very small team ‘working’ on Nw after 1 year….

NW is so time consuming its insane, just without the fun part… pve? daily brain off loot runs, mutations ? dont get me startet on mutations who ever came up with this stupid idea of mutations, atleast the way they are should be interviewed by atleast 5 Karen´s. PvP… im a musket player because it makes fun 2shotting light armor user yea i get it its dumb af they should nerf attunement BUT whats even more dumb ? let me tell you - if one healer can change the whole outcome of an opr its mindblowing how op heals are. I did not log in last 4 days, im just waiting to see some patch notes but i think its only worth in half a year from now. game couldve been so gud.
