I've always enjoyed Spiral Knights for what we have right at this moment. If it's fun now, and I enjoy playing it, then I'll keep playing it. If I want to do other things I'm free to do those too. For some people exploring a game is the fun part (new adventures around every corner), and for others mastering the game is the fun part (min-maxing, for example).

While I don't view Spiral Knights as a completed game necessarily, I would still play it the way it is for a long while with zero changes because I just enjoy the game. I feel the folks who rag on the game because it's "full of potential" are setting themselves up for disappointment, as Gianor said, and while it's not a bad thing to want a game to go deeper most games never scratch the surface of what they can offer.

Spiral Knights was fun and charming when I started it, and it remains fun and charming to this day, seven years later. My favorite parts have definitely been the interactions I get to have this the awesome community along with helping folks through certain missions for the first time - it's always a joy to watch someone learn.

When me and some friends did a Vana run together (since I had to clear the mission) and I basically stopped Vana from doing anything with my Freezing Atomiser because I thought that being a bomber was a good idea back then.

To be honest, I kinda wish that I had more people I could consistently play with so I could get back to using my bomber (I've been playing a gunner character recently because they're broken).
