    I've been playing this game for almost 10 years (obviously with some big breaks inbetween here and there), however I feel like the recent content expansion completelt ruined the game, and I've thus decided to quit forever (then again this is DSO, you can't just quit forever without coming back lol).

    So my question is: has anything changed in the recent patches, or is the game still garbage with the complete rework of everything that used to be good? Is it possible to farm maps solo again? How are the drops? Is it worth even coming back? All I remember is that I used to be able to farm the Great Desert solo on Infernal III, and after the content update I struggled on the second difficulty and the loot was AWFUL. Is this still the case?

    In my modest opinion, right now DSO doesn't worth the time etc... to play the way the left it. i take 2 month just signing in not to lose my daily connection and then i look to another side, you have to see changes for yourself and decde it you like them or not. Once again i will say that since they put the expansion they killed the game by themselves...

    Enjoy it if you are able to...

    there isn't an exact answer for what you are asking
    it depends on what you are looking for in a game
    I have been playing for 10 years without interruption
    I have seen so many changes and I have adapted myself everytime
    like a chameleon that adapts itself to the nature that surrounds it.
    sometime they made me happy, sometime I wanted to delete my character.
    I mostly play alone
    not to betray my personal opinion of the game
    I don't seek the opinion of others
    mine is enough for me.
    I like DSO ;)

    I've been playing this game *again* while waiting for content on other games. It is possible to farm maps at lower levels solo, but the drops are BAD. I quit after the expansion, but started again mid-April. The new quest chain is boring and doesn't level you up very much. I've been finding groups that would carry me in the Great Desert. It is the only way that I've found to get better equipment. I'm up to level 90, but only by grinding the desert endlessly day after day..... If I had a better game I wouldn't play this at all.

    To be honest I think the game is very unfair.
    The loot you find now is normally not worth finding.
    For the amount of enemies that you have to slay the reward is a joke, I mean hundreds and they drop
    very little. Adenment rewards are low, if you spend it on armour or weapens you get none back when
    you sell it. The game is very imbalanced, when it takes so much time to run around killing hundreds
    of enemies, then to receive hardly anything makes you lose interest fast.
    If you have been playing for years, the interest is just nolonger there, I think it is a game for newbies now,
    but in time they will also become disheartened.

    I play this game practically alone from its beginnings, regularly 1-2 hours a day and somehow it never caused me any pain.
    for me CE finally got the game moving by adding different ways to earn and farm. Not like before on 40-45 lvls when only 2 bosses (mortis and khalys) were profitable in farm, and making m2 for weeks for glyphs to upgrade an item by 1 lvl lol.
    Similarly 50-55 were only addicted to making the fastest q's. Opinions on the forum are divided is it better to play alone or in a group. For me, both game ways are equally - because if someone does not take me to boss on merciless, where he die in 5 seconds in group, then I will defeat him myself in 15, I will not have to wait for the team and I will gain more time which will affect the amount of loot. Or in the best case for me, I will make for myself a 4 bloodchests
