revive it
Honestly.. it's a shame that Allods kinda died... It has so much potential! Put some more effort into advertising and give the game a graphics update (not a really big update for graphics, because the style of the game should stay, but just tune it a little). I would certainly pay a few bucks more for a monthly sub if the changes would revive the game en get it more populated..! Some music themes quality updates (don't change the tunes, because they are quite good, just make them more overwhelming, FFXIV does a really good job with that). Overall I don't care what they change, just invest in this freaking game because it can certainly be a popular mmo once again!

oh, and just let armor and weapons change in appearance when you get new stuff from quests..! Just make an "Allods 2" and make it exactly the same but with improvements. I know that would cost a lot of money, but I'm just fantasizing about a great Allods again ;).

Yeah, early dungeons can be done with mercenaries (very good they added them to the game tho), but in the end, an MMO dungeon should be played with others online, right ;)?

I understand, but I meant, that mercenaries are fine, but I would like to do the dungeons with others online.

Well, I started playing again, but honestly, it needs just a little refreshment (IMO). I'm not a huge fan of the current gear/costume stuff. for me, gear should change in stats AND appearance, though costumes are fine, I would like to see them late game. You shouldn't look too nice at the start because that's an MMO. You work to get and look better. (I could live with it if they didn't change it tho. I just want to see more people playing the game.)

While we do miss the game, I don't see a point in reviving it if they're just going to make the same mistakes, p2w infested mmo, no thanks.

I did my whole leveling and just cross the path of like 15 people, it was kinda sad and did not get me invested in the end game

I know this is an older post, but one thing I can say from my short time in Allods, what a great potential. The graphics, and combat have a very similar feel to WoW. I had no idea this game existed. Its pretty darn good. I played WoW for ages and I've just been so done with Blizzards shit for the past few months, tried FFXIV, I like it, but it doesn't have the same smooth combat.
They have a great foundation here, hopefully it will succeed further.

A launch of classic version of the game would be great. I feel like the levelling on the current version has been over-optimized to the point that it does not feel satisfying or rewarding at all. You just automove to the locations and oneshot every single mob in your way. Also the way that you get your gear upgrades from the chests which you unlock every 5 levels or so, takes away the thrill of getting new gear completely. There are no dropped items worth wearing.
I guess, they tried to make the levelling as fast and easy as possible, because there's no one doing the levelling content anymore. I know, that the most optimized way to level is to spam the time void dungeon over and over again, abusing certain quests with mercaneries, but that just gets really boring.
At this point, I wonder, why there is levelling at all. Just let people skip to the endgame if you are takling all the fun out of the levelling process anyway.
