Just Canceled but couldn't explain why

They only allow a few lines of text. I guess the really dont want to hear why people are quitting.
Prior to this round of patches I only had a few annoyances.
Extremely limited exploration. There is no "Mainland" at lvl 71 I had yet to reach any large land mass I could explore. Being stuck in two Matis zones with instant death to the north and south and Cliffs on the two sides pretty much removes all possibility of exploration, or adventure, no exploration, treking along a mountain to find a pass and explore the other side etc...
Obnoxious wildlife. The first time monster ran up to me I found it funny. But after 70 lvls it gets to be annoying. The further you progress the bigger the monsters seem to get. You end up tripping all over the darn things and having to change your camera angle to see how the fight is going. Please get out of my face!
These were no big deal because the game was so beautiful and unlike other games like horizion they felt alive because of the sheer quantity of wildlife and there interaction.
After all the patches over the last few days, my frustration has mounted to the point where I quit. Theyve completely screwed everything up. I have no clue why someone would make such drastic changes to a game. It's gone from an ac/ solo friendly game to a EQ/forced grouping in one patch. You would think that with EQ2 just around the corner they wouldn't want to manoeuvre there game into the exact same market. They had a place of AC people to move on to, now they have a place for people to wait for until EQ2 comes out.
Good luck to you all, see you in the next non EQ game that looks promising.
