Who else can't stop crying?

I've been getting dust in my eyes with strange regularity over the last 24 hours.

It's weird ... as a cyborg with occular implants and no tear ducts, it shouldn't be affecting me the way it is ...

It's a bit embarrassing to admit that I've been crying over a game... But yes, I've cried today. It was just so sudden, and I'm enjoying this game so much. It might be old, but there's still no better MMO out there.

I hope someone can find a way to host the game elsewhere, even if development ceases.

I’m doing fine, though I regularly have some found memory’s or when I try to read some of you guys comments out loud to my partner and then it starts again.

Not cried yet... i did that a few years ago with the closure of Tabula Rasa.

Still feel sucky about the closure of CoX though

As i said earlier, this is my 3rd MMO closure... maybe i am a hex for developers >.>

This is like finding out you have to leave your house, never to return and NO, you cannot take your stuff with you.

Some part of me keeps hoping this is some awful April Fools joke. A really late one.

I cried a total of twice yesterday. I probably will more when it comes closer to the day the black hole arrives but for now... there is no rest for the weary.

I've been rather depressed at work. People have sensed it, and asked what's wrong. I just told them personal stuff, and I didn't really want to talk about it. It'd be far too embarrassing, telling them I'm upset about a game.

Haven't cried any, but there were a few times yesterday that I had to blink a few times when some memories came up, but right now I think some other emotions are higher on the list to allow tears, anger at the way it happened, disgust at the way NCSoft handled it, and an upset stomache (though admittedly that last may have more to do with a bad lunch than anything). But I don't know if the 'no crying' thing will hold true as we get closer to DOOMSDAY (though I'm not at the point where I have given up hope that something will happen that'll keep is in the game, one way or another).


Thanks to everyone that helped make me a welcomed part of the community, and for giving me over 3 years of some of the best gaming I've been able to take part in. May the next game bring many friendships and maybe reconnect to some old CoH friends.

I have a number of times. I was kind of numb and dealing with it, until I read Steelclaw's Epitath and I've been off and on ever since. I'm man enough to not be ashamed to cry, though I'm usually the one helping keep people together during tragedy.

I've played this game 4-5 times a week without break during the 7+ years I've been here. I knew I loved the game, but I didn't know how much 'til yesterday.

I couldn't agree more.

Alas, I am the Cursed Sorcerer. I should be immune to sorrow, but I am not.

Remember, crying does not make you unmanly. It makes you human, or not inorganic or not a heartless jerk.

But it's not just a game - it's an MMO, and they're more than just a game.

I haven't really cried, but I've felt like pretty much nonstop crap. I couldn't even take my nap before work yesterday, I was too upset.

I have been close to tears all night and day. Silly perhaps, but I can't help it.

I too was there for TR's last hurrah.

As for crying, I'm not much into tears, but it IS depressing as hell.

This wonderful game has been in my life for 8 years. It has been therapy, escape and much more. I feel like I am about to watch a friend die before my eyes...so yes, I cried. More than once.

Man, this sucks. I've been playing CoH off and on since its release... its one of my all-time favorite games and it was my first MMORPG. I've got a ton of great memories of this game and played with many great people... gonna' miss it.


 

Posted

When CoH started, I didn't have a computer that could handle it... in fact only got one that could a couple of years ago.

I'm caught between crying and out right rage... this is like being told your best friend is on life support with no chance of ever recovering.

In this case, that's not quite true.

I haven't played regularly in close to a year, but just within the last few days I'd started thinking about returning, then I saw the news on Massively.

I divide my gaming time between several MMOs, but this is the first time one of them has been cancelled. I'm kind of surprised at how hard it's hit me. I haven't cried, yet, but I've come close, in-game, looking at the sights and sounds of the first MMO I ever subscribed to, knowing it'll all be gone soon. Too soon.

I was crying off and on most of the day yesterday, really only when I would dare to log into the game or forums. Seeing everything and knowing that it's likely going away sooner than expected...for some reason it hurts. I never expected a game to steal my heart like this, me, a non-gamer girl...annnnd there I go, crying again.

I was shaking last night because I was so upset, and a couple A-holes in game weren't helping. I get that not everyone gives a crap about this game, but I know the majority of us do, and I just got so pissed off that a few were flinging the hurt right into everyone's face that I couldn't stand it.

Like most here, this game has been a part of my life for the better part of several years, in my case, almost 7. It just hurts and it sucks to have it all ripped away without warning.

I haven't been crying (but there's zero wrong with doing so and I'd admit it), although a few replies and people's stories have indeed brought a tear to my eye or brought me on the verge.

I have just been in an absolute gloomy daze though. My wife is pretty upset about it. Not crying, but really bummed and more than a little pissed.
We both went through rather sucky things with SOE's SWG and that never really entirely leaves you.

Still... I've been reading through so much of what people have been sharing... I can't quite pull myself away from it.

Ditto on the gloomy daze. Mopey. Just... not believing it, but knowing it's true.

And reading... lordy the reading of all the things.

Read all the things? READ ALL THE THINGS!!
