I dunno what's wrong with me

I miss this game from time to time... I miss the world. I miss my dragon. I don't understand why! The game was so broken...
I would fly across zones, and find really cool stuff out in the middle of nowhere, and be sad there was no purpose for it. I think that even with the graphics' age, the design of the world itself was very well done. Too bad there were no mobs or life or purpose to 90% of those interesting-looking places. But as an Explorer type of player, I guess that's what I really enjoyed, regardless of the majority of the game having no point but as a crafting grind.
Met some very nice people too, I guess the community was what held this thing together. And I really have to say, another game needs to have dragons as a race, similar to how Horizons did, and do it right. If dragons could keep HZ gasping along for as long as it did, just on their own, imagine what a better game could get from having them! Outside of the player towns, and dragons, there is really very little else that really was interesting gameplay-wise about HZ, in my opinion.
Even so... I miss HZ sometimes. I have the music files in my playlist and get all nostalgic when I hear them. And then I wonder what is it that makes me feel that way? Some kind of HZ secret sauce or hidden masochist gene or something. Anyone else ever feel like this?

My dragon is what keeps me in the game, that and the few remaining close friends I have there.
The music in New Brommel kept me around for as long as it did. Brilliantly done and no game has yet to come close to it.
I played until last year from time to time I really loved it in the beggining the crowd in the towns It wasnt just 2 ppl Like it was last year Then it was 20+ or more it was sooo fuun but then my friends left and then i realised it was dying so it died as i watched But i guess every mmorpg dies Someday (includes Wow) Some other game can overcome it
