Yet many people still look back upon it fondly because of the intrigue, the wars, the drama of a more or less unregulated world. PvP is meaningless in and of itself. Without assets, resources, ect. to fight and die over it's all just WoW arena, killing each other for dickwaving rights. And again, if that was what I truly enjoyed I would play Counterstrike.
