Quoted from wow official forum:
Oh blizzard why hast thou forsaken us? -- Nihilum Quits.
If you think you鈥檙e freaking hilarious (you鈥檙e not) and are thinking TOO LONG DIDN鈥橳 READ, let me sum it up for you. Nihilum is finished and most of us have quit. Bye.
It鈥檚 been a 3 year roller coaster ride. We have enjoyed ourselves, sometimes. But all good things must come to an end and all that. I think we have reached a point where enough is enough. There is only so much your face can take after repeatedly smashing it against a wall. It seems like we are fighting a multi-million dollar company whose sole purpose is to destroy every last bit of fun hardcore guilds can have. We鈥檙e a bunch of fishies swimming against the current. A rare breed of little fishies that don鈥檛 want everything given to them on a plate and are happy when they accomplish something that is a challenge.
It all really comes down to the state of the PVE game at the moment. It鈥檚 something that totally contradicts our reason for existence. We always try to use every single advantage given to us. And thus we are forced to 鈥渢est鈥 PTR content just to stay ahead or keep on par with other guilds. This is ridiculous, we should not be testing anything, an internal testing team should. Oh how incredibly awesome it would be to zone into and new instance and not have a CLUE what bosses exist, or what tactics to use to kill them, or what gear will drop.
I think the Sunwell gate 鈥渋dea鈥 was the final blow. Why bother trying to compete for world firsts if the leading guild has to twiddle their thumbs waiting for the next stage to be open, watching everyone and his mother catch up. Why bother race to the finish line when it鈥檚 only Kil鈥檍aeden that matters? It鈥檚 like a four hundred meter race where everyone has to stop and wait for the last guy every hundred meters. It鈥檚 unreasonable, and makes me not want to bother. And when everyone in the guild has that mentality, it collapses.
鈥淢ake some positive suggestions instead of whining blah blah鈥
We are not the company with infinite resources and the best creative and design team gaming has to offer, we don鈥檛 need to come up with anything, we are useless bums living in our parents basements remember?
So what will happen to Nihilum?
Some of us will go, some of us will stay and play the casual game it鈥檚 become. But eventually you will see us make a comeback in a new game. Thanks to the fans. We pretended those level 1 whispers didn鈥檛 matter. But they made our days! We screenshotted every one, every single one! And we look at our screenshot folder on lonely days to cheer us up. Thanks to the sponsors that believed in us. We had such big plans coming for the website and the community...a pity really :(.
Goodbye cruel world...
...of Warcraft.
P.S 鈥淎ctivision Blizzard鈥 doesn鈥檛 make sense.
