I have mixed feelings. One of the ways I made the grind more interesting was to attempt to collect and vault one of every item. I made spreadsheets to track the items I still needed. I had alts so that I could store them and go back and look at what I had collected. There was nothing game breaking about it. It was my way of creating a mini-game for my own amusement, and did so on the basis that we were told no wipe and therefore my collection would be retained. I regret the time wasted and the destruction of my collection that is coming.
However, I have mostly stopped playing the game and I desperately want this to be a fun and successful game. I keep coming back and it just has not been fun. Each time I come back I find some interesting moments but overall I find I am doing the same things over and over again just to pay upkeep or to build up something only to be destroyed by a raider. So if a wipe can breathe some new life into the game, so be it, and I will come back and try again.
