we had many an argument about there being a point...Is there one?
Why should I start playing again...the fact that i still watch the boards and contribute on occasion means i'm looking for a reason to.
Is there a point to the game?
Or do you still just craft to craft and build to build?
From the outside, it seems that in the 5 months since i've last played...they've added some new mobs (zombies, etc) and made trees regrow...oh and i guess you can build gates.
I haven't seen anything posted that in any way makes me want to log in again.
So...the question that needs to be asked with regard to attracting players, retaining players, and getting players to come back...whats the point, and why should i care?
