[Halo Dalgion]

Okay everyone I'll start by saying that I'm very excited that IN replica is about. I have seen several familiar names of the golden days. I am very worried though about the survival of the shard. I also believe that this can indeed work and become successful. We all know UO is old game and somewhat outdated so in order to gain an acceptable player base we need what no other shard can offer (which we have already) but the skill gain is in my opinion to hard. I mean I don't want to complain and get a bad name but seriously 350k ingots to 100 from 55 BS? Thats a little insane. 120 hours from 60 mining to 100 thats 40 hours a week for 3 weeks thats a full time job! My argument is we're not all 17 anymore with no worries and no lives. Many of us have wives, children and jobs that consume nearly all of our time. I know that I would not be able to even compete for the first two years of this shard while I am suffering from having to train 1-2 hours per day while someone may be able to pump 40-60 hours a week in. I know craft skills need to be hard in order to make there value worth achieving but at least have some sympathy. We spent years already in IN1 achieving skills and now you're telling us to pump out even more time and more effort into the game when we can not all deliver such things. As much as I would love to go back to 17 and have no worries of bills and such I wouldn't mind the skill gains but now if you want stable players I really think you should reconsider the level of difficulty. I am not only talking about myself but I am speaking for many others as well.

Sincerely Halo.
