Nexus PK is actually incredibly fun. I've tried out quite a few games and for some reason there is still a draw to how this PK system. Granted, it is completely dependent on having a lot of people play in order for it to be fun. There is really only a handful of people who log in every once in a while that are actually good at PK.

It's not fun being a good poet without good fighters and it is not fun being a good fighter without a good poet. Years ago I used to actively look at the carnage schedule and try my best to be on for certain events. Not anymore sad.gif


That's the draw, and ultimately the downfall, of this game. You need at least a medium-sized community in order for it to be enjoyable. I wouldn't say that the PK is any better or worse than other games, it's the interaction you have with the other players that really makes it.

Also, yes I am aware that APM based games are hard on your hands. I was simply stating a fact that many people have complained about with Nexus in particular, which is that the repetitive motion of hunting, PK, etc does take a toll on you. Not sure why everyone in this game has to be so damn negative with everything that they say, as if they have to one-up each other constantly. I've played APM based games before and they haven't hurt my hands as much as Nexus did. My personal experience. Maybe you haven't experienced it personally or you are lying to yourself but it doesn't mean you have to be a rude [Content removed] about it.

Again, I'll reiterate the draw and simultaneously the downfall of this game: the community.

But even if you are into that sort of thing, there's a dozen MMORPGs out there who have a similar and better system of PK. (Not even talking about WoW)

...when I'm not busting PCs!

Been without laptop for at least four months. This game is the only thing that gets me yearning for a working laptop. This game is the only thing that, when on laptop, I binge on to the point of renouncing my former life and finding new hobbies.

Can't believe NTK community is (potentially) still just sitting there waiting for me.

I can't believe you can survive without a laptop for four months.

I actually decided to finally call it quits - permanently. I deleted kold, and all my other alts. 13 years on one toon gone.

I am currently poking my head into the game for the anniversary time. Still a number of old names floating around. Other than that it is the same old boring place.
