As such, it was a bad idea to have this content so early on in a player’s career.

The quest was mostly played by brand new F2P accounts due to its location and level prerequisites. Romeo & Juliet doesn’t reflect the quality of content we produce now.Ī new player may say "This is boring. I’ve also tried to answer the questions on the forums about the change.ġ. The reasons are simple, and there are only two, so I felt it would be useful to list them here.
