Seriously though, skin cancer (or cancer in general) must suck. Don't blame him for wanting to take a break and spend more time with loved ones.
As for the game itself, I bought it, got to 34 as a Mechari Engineer, got bored, rolled some alts, was still bored. Personally, I think it should have launched with a Buy To Play model, with a cosmetic/boosters cash shop, much like GW2. It's not a bad game, IMHO, I just don't feel it does much else different from any other game to warrant a monthly sub.
Not sure a new company with no personal cash to invest can go the B2P model and be profitable game or have a AAA quality game. GW2 probably had inside investment capital from their other games to make them need less return at the start to break even on outside investments into GW2.
