What Expansion Did You Quit Live?

[Nytewind TP]

How far into Live did you play until you retired?

OoW, or whatever was right after PoP.

PoP keying, flagging, and guild thieving of our players killed my guild and I had no desire to continue a recruiting spree to reflag people that will then be stolen.

[Vohl]

Underfoot. I quit due to extreme time commitment as well as money for the monthly fee plus expansions.

Had my limelight in the raiding scene from SoV to PoP, then went casual after doing Time for the Xth time. With GoD and OoW offering virtually nothing for the casual, I quit just as DoN was being released.

I notice OOW, which has the most votes at the time of this post, coincides nicely with the vanilla release of WoW.

I was one that quit during OoW, but it wasn't to go play WoW. I quit because I didn't feel like purchasing OoW since I had hardly seen any of the GoD content, and my guild had disbanded and friends had left, so I walked away. I did end up playing WoW, but that was over 3 years later. And I did not quit WoW to play P99, my friends left, so I quit, then after a month or more, I found P99.

Even though I played a bit during later expansions for a couple weeks at a time, I quit playing serious during LDoN...which I guess you could technically say was still PoP, because LoY and LDoN didn't really offer much in terms of extended gameplay.

...and I just realized why I liked PoP so much, and why it seemed to go on longer than all of the other expansions. People all but ignored Legacy of Ykesha (being the worst expansion in gaming history), and other than instanced dungeon grinds that you'd get sick of after the first 3 or 4 each day, LDoN was a wash as well. This essentially gave PoP a year and a half by itself as the main content in the game.

Totally true and a nice catch. I always thought OoW was a better expansion than Gates of Discord (WTF were they smoking when they named those places?!), and just offered more interesting content, but the population dropped a lot when WoW launched. I think it was around then that SoE started to give up on policing people using MQ2.

Omens of War. Kunark through Plane of Time (with the exception of vex thal!) was the best raiding I've done in any MMO, but something about GoD/OOW just killed it for me. I really liked the LDON concept for single groups and had a great time at it, but just couldn't get excited about the future raid content. Did play WoW a bit (after a few months break from gaming) but it wasn't the trigger.

More or less same experience for me.
