- A severe lack of key settings info on major factions, especially prior to character creation.
- A severely outdated and infrequently updated website with contradictory settings and a heavy reliance on forums to get the necessary info.
- A severe lack of visual character customization to get away from the "clone" look.
- A severe lack of fluid and fast mouselook control in Windows PS client.
- An increasing number of severe memory leaks in areas such as Bronze Doors and Gugrontid.
- Graphics quality not matching the system requirements.
- A mostly deserted server (a very low server population).
- A severe lack of listening to player feedback in the beta stages of the game on things that do not require paid developers (ie licensing, quest system, maps, mini-maps, game mechanics, combat system, magic system, spoilers etc).
- A major lack of professionalism and maturity in some staff members' public involvement.
- A lack of any new developers joining the team (probably because of the licensing issues and overall unprofessional atmosphere).
- An apparent general lack of improvement over the years of development.
etc
This is more of a "why this game isn't enjoyable overall", rather than just RP, and would also apply as an answer to the "Bored" thread.
Doesn't make me want to stop RP'ing in general but the RP'ing is much more interesting, rewarding and encouraging in some other MMORPGs. The experience in PS has been pretty boring by comparison so far.
Maybe a bit harsh but remember, you asked.
