I've invited a few people to SL2 lately. Not one has stuck around. I wonder why?

I wonder why, indeed.

You and some other less vocal players seem to think people can either enjoy the PvP, enjoy the PvE (that you seem to believe is the red headed stepchild of the game), or not like the game at all. That isn't a very healthy attitude to bring to new players, either.


I love competitive PvP. I play very few games that aren't focused on it. Most of my characters are as optimized for PvP as they can be (while still fitting their theme) and most of my 47 characters were created because I wanted to try out a new build in PvP.

All that being said, SL2 is not a game about PvP any more than it is a game about PvE (which, coincidentally, I also enjoy with certain builds).

It's about roleplay. If you don't roleplay, you aren't going to have fun. Despite how much I enjoy PvP, I have multiple characters that are either completely unleveled, or don't fight unless necessary. You don't, contrary to popular belief, need to PvE or PvP to any degree at all to enjoy the game, but you do need to roleplay - and conveniently enough, them's the rules.
