Friendly environment. Frequent events, some automated, some not. Solid veteran playerbase. I, personally, am somewhat discouraged by the high proportion of players with full endgame setups, but this isn't a con for everybody. I also have yet to amass the resources or money necessary to actually participate in the economy in a meaningful way, though this is likely due to my inexperience with Renewal. Altogether decent, though there are some class balance issues in pre-re.
