I’m not sure there will be more purges. A lot of people avoid them and this way they can just not have them at all. If I were betting, I’d put money on less purges rather than more occurring. As to optimization, they are always trying to optimize the game. It’s true that performance on the funcom servers could be better, but with every patch, they try to make improvements. There is a bit of server to server variability thrown in there as well so it’s not always straightforward.
