Still playing.
Still fun.
Still best MMO since old WoW (and Eve, but Eve is too diffrent to really compare it to the others).

Btw: Yesterday the big Patch hit with 2 new Nightmare modes, Rocket Launchers (new weapon class for witch you only can use 1 active and 1 passive ability) and new Quests + some other neat things.

Btw2: That GW2 is getting way more attention than this is just a shame.

I'm still subbed to this despite playing GW2. I think TSW is the superior game however and am only playing GW2 due to all of my friends being in it. I have a really hard time with GW2's PvE after the awesome job TSW does with writing and characters. GW2 is so damn bland in comparison. GW2's PvP is clearly superior (well, so is everyone's to be honest), so I think I will play GW2 just for PvP with my friends while TSW remains my primary PvE MMO.

Rocket launchers are awesome.

Glad to see they are profitable and committed to the game:

SOMEONE must still play this game.

I began playing again, and it's awesome, definitely like it more than GW2.

Yeah I hear there is a Halloween thing. A bit of an oxymoron considering the lore / setting, but I am curious to see how far their current content development team can go with each update.

I bought it 2? 3? weeks ago when it was 50% off. So I'm still playing.
Though I'm not really far, 1st Egypt zone.

Halloween is a series of quests (havent completed them since I think I have to go to Transylvania for it), and you can kill mobs in Blue Mountains to get costumes etc etc. Maybe something else as well in the later zones.

As I said - I'm not really that far into the game. I'm personally having fun, but I doubt I will play it for long after I finished the story line. AndI dont have any clue about endgame.

You said it was fun on release, what stopped you from playing then? I dont think that much has changed from back then, except bug fixes. The raid is supposed to come out "soon" if that what you want/mean.

it was fun for however long I was playing it which was 2 months

current end game consists of 5 man increased difficulty dungeons where you collect budges and turn them in to get vendor gear. the gear drops from bosses are meant to be stand-ins for the vendor gear, but can be very good.

I think the biggest issue people have with the game is the combat where most people say it feels like standing in a spot which is definitely true if playing a melee-centric build, but there are definitely some benefits to actively moving especially if playing a ranged build since it's possible to move while casting

other issue people have is the PvE end game is mostly a gear grind which really isn't different from the majority of MMOs out on the market

PvP is also hit or miss with people probably due to the combat system, but some people like PvP because of the ability to change skill build (there is no class system just a big skill circle that everyone can unlock completely after enough XP) immediately depending on what they're playing against

I might consider resubbing for a month or two once they release the Tokyo zone to check it out.

Well, resubbing isn't a problem, I got the lifetime sub.

was really excited and spent all I had on gaming budget at the time.

Decided to buy this game today.. And I have to say I'm pretty dissapointed. The story etc might be ok but its hard for me to enjoy true clunky controls and silly bugs (like my chars firing without actually grabbing his weapon) and now the game randomly died on me.. Is it like this for everyone or am I doing something wrong here?

I'm running the game on a computer below min requirements just fine, so it's probably just you.

http://forums.thesecretworld.com/showthread.php?t=62789

for people that have a registered account before the end of this year, they get the next content update free (think it's supposed to be the Japan one)

for people with already paid subscriptions (lifetime), they get some type of cash shop currency monthly

It's now buy to play like GW2. There's a few bonuses for subscribing you can see here http://www.thesecretworld.com/news/subscription_no_longer_required

I just picked it up for $20 and don't know anything about TSW except that I've always wanted to try but I'm really tired of sub fees so I can't tell you much
